yes.

i don't know if anything started with your "bhy" thread which i don't remember anymore, but the defining moment of the indian non-pun was indophile's setting forth of the paradigm of a pun with his "bhenkatrao, bhenkatrao, bhy are you bhandering in the bheranda like a bhagabond?"

Yeah I was feeling sad last night. Sorta withdrawal-y and vacuum-y last evening after a trip to the airport. Anyway, it got fixed by a highly potent cosmo and red velvet cake with vanilla ice cream.

But then we were talking about age and looks as XH is now 41 while I am still 40! So anyway, d said I look older than XH, but we both look like we are in our 30s. As if that wasn't a blow enough, my son began saying he will give his honest opinion about what he thinks about our age. He indicated that XH looks younger but he will put exact numbers to our perceived ages. We said ok... so he told me I look 45. Seeing my reaction he got so scared that to make up he said XH looks 45 too. He didn't budge from 45 for XH after that, no matter how much we asked. And to attempt to make me not feel so bad he said - well, when you keep your hair down you look younger. So ya, going for a haircut later today, may make me feel better. Will get pedi done too, as the toe nail polish is coming off.
