Today I was hearing songs from Dil To Pagal Hai. I don’t know which year it was released. Only thing I know is that I was in college then and madly in love. Now today when I heard the songs, it took me into that era, when everything was rosy red with love, in my world. One thing I did before my marriage was to tell everything about my past love-encounters to my hubby. Every human being related to me including my parents strictly prevented me from being so open, at that time. But later I proved I was right in doing so. As my hubby was also in exact situation like me, we connected like anything. I have seen some of my girlfriends hiding their past from their husbands. But I am in a situation now that I can even introduce my ex to my husband as “My ex!â€.
The pun in that is we pull each others legs even now, on its name. I usually tell him that I will tell about both our ex-s even to our kids, so that I can even introduce my ex to my kids!! Sometimes I even say that I will leave my hubby and run away with some Irish guy, and he says the same to me too. We had made this a usual tease and never had the least idea how this could be viewed by others.
One day when my mom called we were having our usual teasing and I told amma “Amma, I got bored with my hubby. I am looking for a Irish guy at work. I will soon leave my hubby and go with himâ€. I was actually telling this to my hubby, looking at him. Next thing I heard was my mom shrieking from other side of the phone. “Don’t you dare say that!!!!! And she began scolding me like anything†I couldn’t even tell her that it was a joke. She went on saying as if I had actually started an affair here. Finally I gave the phone to my hubby and he had to spend at least 10 minutes, convincing my mom that I was not leaving him and was not having an affair in Ireland! And after that we decided that our teasing and jokes should remain only with us and never go to relatives and friends esp PARENTS!!

As I was tagged by Sab:
6 weird things or habits:
Honestly I don’t think them as weird:
1) I love to eat meat curry mixed with buttermilk.
2) I hate facial hair in men.
3) I love to chew lamb/chicken bones for almost 15 mts [my hubby says, I was a dog on my last birth!]
4) I can carry babies only on my left side.
5) I eat only melted ice-cream.
6) I paint toe nails, but never finger nails.

ReplyDeleteHey Swati find a nice Irish guy for me too. It's getting kinda boring with Haris! ha ha...
Thanks for the laugh... Yeah, it's pretty tough when others don't get inside jokes... but then again, that's why they're called "inside" jokes. ;-)
ReplyDeletefor me...when Rit's use to give me stupid arguement n trouble ...I always use to say him...find someone else n let me go.....either do 2nd marriage....."ek ghar sambhalegi ...aur ek aapko, ek khana banayegi...ek aapki seva karegi".....aur samne reply milta hai...kitna aacha hota agar humare religion mai bhi 2 shadi ker sakte"

Thanks for doing the tag!! Girl, I too prefer my cuppa icecream a bit melted. I often microwave them for 10 seconds to give that softer, creamy texture... yum yum!! I think I gained a few pounds thinking about that!
ReplyDeleteOh Swats, that was brilliant telling your mommie like that, i can't tell mine that the guy on the road is cute looking, and I get a big lecture about how, my (future)husband will disown me if I go on at this rate..lol..
ReplyDeleteso you're husband is clean shaven..hehe and I can carry babies and stuff on my left side too :D
Sab! microwaving icecream! hmmm, i should check out your previous recipe entries for something weird like this..HAHAHA
I used to say to my wife.But she never bothered about it. ????
ReplyDeleteirish guys are grose.......and telling ur kids about ur ex is even groser......
ReplyDeleteU hate the name " **** " ....and yoy hate facial hair in men !...Hmmm !....nice to know these !...

ReplyDeleteSwathi, dont take AJ seriously... it really doesnt harm in parents being open with their kids. Only then its possible to form a friendly bond! I talk everything with my both my dad and mom and thats because they are extremely friendly with me. I guess you will relate to this - I even discuss good looking guys with my dad!
ReplyDeleteAnd Irish Men....*sigh* Its a pity that Ronan Keating is married!! Haha..
Chewing Bones!!! LOL... and ROFL and at your husband's sense of humour!!!
Sab---yea,sure join the club!!
ReplyDeleteLisa---u r absolutely right Lisa...
Anu---LOL!why stop in 2 shadi!!
Shail---njan oru paaavam alle? **batting eyelashes** usually i tell abt guys to amma,but she always say "u shudnt",and after marrg, she thinks its the worst crime!!
king---amma will have a heart attack. i dont know why she cant undstand the joke... may be she never told like that to dad!
Sab---that idea never occured to me! wow!!! will do that next time!!!
jo_g...---my mom is also under same category as urs... but do i care??? i tell her in a more affirmative tone, "still,amma, that guy is cute!" LOL!! if i try to carry babies on m right side, they slide off.. LOL!
sekhar---yea,thats the understanding b/w couples...
Aj.....--- grosser guys are there in every single country esp in India,not only in Ireland. And how come letting the kids know that their parents are human is "grosser"?????
cheeeze---my hubby is clean-shaven.and no "sorry" b/w friends!!
Madhoo---thumbs up!
Arfana---hey hey its ok... for him its "gross", for me its making kids feel that they have human and not fairies as parents!i am brutally open, which irks others sometimes, and abt being frank with parents, u r 100% right! cos of his sense of humor, my hubby survives with me!
Did someone mention Ronan Keating? *gone dreaming*.... Loved that song, 'when you say nothing at all'.
ReplyDeleteAj~~ I don't think it is gross to tell your grown-up kids about your life and incidents/ people who shaped it. May be the way you tell it might make it a little gross, but the thought isn't! Think again!!
Sab.. it was me.. it was me... I think Ronan is absolutely gorgeous.... what do you think Swathi?
ReplyDeleteok ok chillax girls.....im gross awryt
ReplyDeletehmm.. interesting.
ReplyDeletei did the same too.
but, i'm not sure about sharing with my kids part.
by the way, do you think Irish guys are going to be any better than us
'Mallus' ?
Ronan !...Get a Grip Gals !
ReplyDeleteHey it's cool Aj... :)
ReplyDeleteAnd Manu not a word against Ronan!! ;)
SAB---even i love boyzone and westlife!and u r correct in ur opinion!
ReplyDeleteArfana---Ronan IS grogeous! in fact who wasnt in Boyzone?
AJ--LOL!
CK--- we cant actually compartmentalise guys based on nationality... there are nice and not so nice guys both in kerala and in Ireland!
