Wishlist (I wish I wasn’t turning 23)

May 23, 2006 at 3:54 am (Small Walls)

I'm going to be MIDDLE AGED (this is based on the assumption that with the current lifestyle we all lead, none of us are going to make it past 50 anyways.) I am nearly in my mid-20's. WHEN did this happen. I feel an impending mid-life crisis on the horizon. The last time I checked, we were all 17 – relatively guileless, and had zero worries. No Aurelie – your conversion was NOT a crisis. It was shocking. Not a crisis. Ok – so I thought I would do a wishlist of the 5 things I want most in the world – feel free to oblige.

 5. A large, comfy jet. With my name in pink diamonds on the side. So I can fly to LA (Jody, Brandon), London (Ish, Aurelie), India (famliy, Jai, Rahul, Sam) and the like WHENEVER I wanted. I still wouldn't go to Bangkok though.

4. An original copy of Neruda's "20 love songs and a song of despair." In his handwriting. Addressed to me.

3. Sunglasses that suit me. Shut up Neha.

2. Many, many, many tattoos. I tried to convince Neha to get me one as a present – she balked. Traitor.

1. A husky. Named Hector. With blue eyes (pleasssssssseeeeeeeeeeee)

 Yesh. Ok – miss you guys, muah.

    Who would want you to come to go to Bangkok.

    I don’t think Immigration will let you enter the counrty anyways.

  2. Brandon said,

    I want you to come to LA. I’ll make sure immigration lets you in.

    You can’t have a husky in Singapore, I guess you will have to move to LA.

    “Tonight I can write the saddest lines.”

    I’ll be in london on the 7th. Surprise!

    You own sunglasses, I have seen them.

    I’m 42 in August.

  4. nehasood said,

    Karan – fine.

    Brandon – There are breeds of husky you can raise in Asia. Plus I hated LA, i could never live there. You are going to be in London? Since when … (stalker, stalker)

    Danesh – Age is relative, no? I think I’m an old 23 year old.

  5. Brandon said,

    I never said I wasn’t stalking you.

  6. คารัน said,

    brandon: its just the feeling she gets with you… creepy..

  7. danesh said,

    My sister is relative… so is my cousin.

  8. danesh said,

    Speaking of which did you hear about this new Family Game called “Incest”? It’s relatively exciting.

  9. nehasood said,

    You are ALL nuts. Nuts.

    (are we really making jokes about incest now? really?)

  10. Brandon said,

    My nuts? What?

    Who’s the squiggly dude? And why is he hating on me?

    I’ll be at the Waldorf. Call you in a bit.

    Love ya.

  11. danesh said,

    too cowardly to reveal himself and hate you at the same time i see… perhaps he’s incensed….

  12. k a r a n said,

    คารัน is my name in thai. the “squiggly” symbols happens to be characters of the thai alphabet.

  13. nehasood said,

    Ok – time out kids.

    (Danesh – you are not helping …)

    So, in the interest of not having a “mine is bigger then yours match” over a BLOG – can you guys chill out.

  14. danesh said,

    Hmmmm….. I was sure you wouldn’t take the bait. Anyway, you showed Brandon, didn’t you?

    I need to work out my squigglies.

  15. Brandon said,

    Mine is bigger.

  16. Brandon said,

    Thats not Thai. That looks like Braille for autistic kids.

  17. danesh said,

    No, it’s not. Its conchiglialetto… a obsure type of italian pasta.

    OK, so yours is bigger than squigglies… fine.

  18. nehasood said,

    Thats it. You are all banned. All of you. Banned.

    Brandon – GO TO SLEEP.

  19. k a r a n said,

    brandon:

    you’d know all about ‘Braille for autistic’ kids…

  20. nehasood said,

    Wow, and you guys will eventually meet someday. And love each other I’m sure. Hey – can you both learn salsa? So I’ll have dance partners everywhere?

  21. Brandon said,

    I am learning babe. I actually enjoy it. There is a salsa congress in LA. Is your boy going to be here?

  22. danesh said,

    Nice deflection.

  23. Brandon said,

    Your other man, I mean.

  24. nehasood said,

    Who are we talking about? Anyways – I think we are all done for the day … will call you later tonight.

  25. Brandon said,

    Happy Birthday sweetheart – ciao.

  26. danesh said,

    How many men does Neha have?

  27. nehasood said,

    None.

  28. MMM said,

  29. nehasood said,

  30. k a r a n said,

    neha has men all around the world…
    theres one in every country and a vast variety of nationalities and races..

    its all about ‘globalisation’ for her…

    taking the on the world and leaving a trail of broken hearts..

  31. danesh said,

    she told me she only likes “coloured” men…

    you should have seen the voluntary distribution of the leftover cake…. cryptic, i know but she can explain.

  32. nehasood said,

    Karan – in the interest of NOT kicking your ass, I’m going to give you a chance to take that back. Who’s heart have I ever broken.
