Snug



As I curl up to sleep for the extra five minutes after smashing the alarm clock for more than three times, I realise how important it is to just relax and sleep in at times. I also realise how important it is to iron the business shirt before going to bed, polishing the leather to walk down the business street, hanging the winter coat in the car just to save that extra minute or even opening the garage door to save those 5 seconds.

The warm winter snug then takes me to a different parallel world, as I party in my bed on a weekday, I see a lot in those five snoozed minutes. I see cars I fantasise, a favourite straight drive hit by Tendulkar, our first bike ride as the pillion rider sleeps next to me like its still mid-night, as I still interact with the builder to put the right coloured timber baton chosen by us.

And then, I hear a soul threatening sound, it takes me from the unreal to the real world in micro seconds. I run to the closet, pick a shirt, polish the leather, hang the winter coat in the car, open the garage door & yes, I shave and shower in midst of all this too.Yes
Spider-man you were correct, responsibility does follow great power, but had you mentioned what to do when it is -7 degrees outside, the movie would have been a bigger hit. Caught in your own net, mate?

As I count 5 days of the week and sleep like a baby on the morning of day 6, after threatening the chirpy bird in the morning to sleep for little long too... Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrinnng.... my soul wakes up again..why did I not shut the alarm clock last night? First world issues!
