Meet the dream team of handsome fire fighting lego men

Here's one running to the rescue

Here's one getting the fire extinguisher, all decked up

And, here's one who lost his head and drove Raju, the station cat, up a tree

Well.

Every set has a crazy.

Not to worry folks, all ended well for Raju, the cat.

Sadly, the same can't be said for Raju, the fireman.

There was something I wanted to do with these photos, but haven't had the time and well, the inclination mostly went out the window. If it ever returns, you'll see it here soon.

enter the hoopler (not dragon)

hello shiney eyes, hello crazy hair,

welcome to our life you kook, took you long enough to get here.

zoozoocide.

I hate zoozoos.

Hate their name. that bloody 'language' they speak. how they look.

Everytime I see them on tv I feel like ripping my sim card out of my phone and eating it.

(yes I have vodafone. Its the only connection that works in Mumbai)

That one ad, where the dumb zoozoo jumps into a tiger's cage - I'm all "EAT THE ZOOZOO sweet tiger" "Go on kitty". They don't show you that, but I feel happy thinking there's no way that zoozoo could've escaped being eaten by sweet tiger in that tiny little cage.

:)

Everyone loves zoozoos.

Why.

They are idiotic irritating nincompoops.

In fact, if I hate you, I'll call you a bloody zoozoo.

I bought a dupatta today

It took me twenty minutes to get a cab to go to the shop

It took me thirty minutes to choose from very many dupattas the shop had to offer

But I believe I have found the dupatta I was looking for

Well they said buy it or leave now, we shut at eight

Nice dupatta still

Then I made the mistake of taking a cab home.

I got stuck in traffic. For hours

It was very hot and I was very tired

The cab was pretty stinky.

Some people find the word stinky pretty cute

What, its true. There are people who do.

I happen to be one of those people.

HA.

Stinky. Hello there little stinky.

Its a pretty cute word, I could have a dog named stinky.

I won't have a dog, so that's ok.

Really felt like getting some nonsense out of my head and system.

Feels good to have somewhere to put it anyway.

I never really like getting rid of anything completely

credit

what a grumpy old

what a complete bore

let's all move from this here anonymous

let's try a frame and some pose

smile like you don't mean it, it smiles more

gather your horses and some goat

just some goat

try me for some fun, try her on for size

she fits you like a rubber duck

I mean she doesn't

what do you want me to say darling

i make sense but we don't

i make good sambar but you don't

don't jump out the window and ruin my view

clean my fan instead, please

i just cannot bring myself to do it, and the dirt is all over my bed

clean my fan, so I don't worry

for my white sheets and curtains

the cushions can go rot.

(photos taken on a Wednesday afternoon at home)

No harm done

It was not the first time she’d allowed her mind to take her to another world;

the trip always familiar and comforting.

She knew her heart and mind had conspired and created these parallels to her life,

assuring her that these worlds would stay in her head,

that they would buffer her sanity, absorb the hit when it hit.

The point was forgotten, that after one visit too many

the very heart and mind which helped create these so-called guardian lies;

her safety nets and happy place,

would stand confused.

Reality always seeking to escape into imagination.

There was harm done, there was help needed

Who is now going to convince her.

Who knew anymore, which worlds were built and which ones were run away from.

Day dreaming is not for the weak,

addictive and just out of reach.

Wear your armour and approach with caution.
