http://almost-arlecchino.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html

Songs of the not-so innocent. Don't fall for mermaids when there are plenty of fish in the sea. Sunday, December 28. We follow the old laws. An eye for an eye. In his case, a life for a life. Only, he was special. Different. There had always been something. A smell. A look. The shape of his face. We follow the old ways. We recognise the signs. He was born to make trouble. To be trouble. I was present at his birth, like I was present at the others'. He was not like the others. He would be the end of us.

http://almost-arlecchino.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html

Songs of the not-so innocent. Don't fall for mermaids when there are plenty of fish in the sea. Sunday, June 1. Hey, that's no way to say goodbye. G's ability to write had become still. "Still like a noonday minute in the brutal, breathless summer", he thought. It wasn't that G hadn't pondered the situation. However, he couldn't come up with an answer to satisfy anyone, least of all himself. He's had to grow up too quickly". Someone one said, referring to him. Maybe you've never grown up at all". Hey, th...

Songs of the not-so innocent: July 2014

http://almost-arlecchino.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html

Songs of the not-so innocent. Don't fall for mermaids when there are plenty of fish in the sea. Thursday, July 17. Socha kya tha, kya ho gaya. If I'd started a blog on social or infrastructural issues plaguing this country, there would have been more than enough posts to write. But I generally avoid it because I don't want to criticize anything or anyone without offering a concrete, plausible solution to the problem. However, I have to ask - What's the deal with rainwater harvesting? Again, no one knows ...

Songs of the not-so innocent: May 2015

http://almost-arlecchino.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html

Songs of the not-so innocent. Don't fall for mermaids when there are plenty of fish in the sea. Saturday, May 23. I am not an expert. This post is not another bullshit (heaven help us) 'Open Letter'. It certainly doesn't take an infuriating 'So-n-so is wrong/right. Here's why' stance just to create controversy and get read. It is simply my feelings on a certain matter. Without any (and I mean ANY) concern for someone else's opinion on the matter. Are you in college? Just out of college? In a boring job?

He paused his serve, captivated by her verve. She glanced through her racquet, imagined how handsome he'd look in a jacket. With a smile on his face, he served what he thought was an ace. She volleyed it with a smack, all the while smiling back. T'was two love at first sight.*. Song for the moment:. What's love got to do with it - Tina Turner.

Songs of the not-so innocent: February 2015

http://almost-arlecchino.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html

Songs of the not-so innocent. Don't fall for mermaids when there are plenty of fish in the sea. Thursday, February 12. We still have dreams. Working in an ad agency has its perks. You get to dress pretty casually. You can turn the air blue by swearing and no one turns a hair. The scenery is usually quite nice (though your favourite author manages to dent that statistic). And punny jokes fly thick and fast. So, overall, not bad. My colleagues haven't heard of these legends either. Ye gads! Take a gander at.

Songs of the not-so innocent: Heat of the night

http://almost-arlecchino.blogspot.com/2015/03/heat-of-night.html

Songs of the not-so innocent. Don't fall for mermaids when there are plenty of fish in the sea. Sunday, March 29. Heat of the night. Contrary to what the phrase connotes, an Indian summer does not lead me to think of life favourably. The monsoon has a certain romance and the winter lends a cosy, rosy bonhomie to things. I can wax eloquent about the delights of the rain and become wistful about winters. But summer? The only good things about the season are mangoes, panna. Finally home in Pune after a hect...

Songs of the not-so innocent: April 2014

http://almost-arlecchino.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html

Songs of the not-so innocent. Don't fall for mermaids when there are plenty of fish in the sea. Friday, April 25. Time of the gypsies. Anyway, thanks to the benevolent goodness of two friends, a lovely couple who are also my self-appointed guardians in Bombay, I shimmied along as the 3rd wheel for the evening show of 2 States. I enjoyed it; both the cinema experience and the movie. As well as her. And there were plenty of genuinely hilarious moments overall, so well done them. Was now playing a maami.
