• woke up with a headache, took mortrin. Didn't help much.
  

• didn't go to gym. feeling regretful.
  

• put pulav on the stove. Had not planned to turn on the gas. But did. Realized in the middle of shower that I may have done so. So finished quickly. As suspected, could smell something burning. Muttered 'NO SHYT', and ran down wrapped in towel and dripping with water, opened the windows (too shy to open the doors), turned off the stove. Braced to hear the smoke alarm go off.
  

• Smoke alarm didn't go off. By this time there is smoke all over the house. I am choking a bit, it's all hazy. But no frikking smoke alarm. *Gotta get this thing checked.*
  

• Was late for doc appointment 1 hour away. STILL decided to be an efficient housewife, and decided to put yogurt to set. Boiled the milk. And now it won't cool down fast enough. Kept it under the fan while I ate lunch. No cooling. Poured it from one container to another like a halwai 9-10 times. Still no cooling. Lot of froth. No cooling. Finally put two ice cubes in it and put it to set. Was already 10 minutes late.
  

• Got out to go. Realized that I have not taken the shoes in which the orthotics will be fitted. Ran back, got those.
  

• GPS said I will be 2 minutes late if I kept up the speed. Well, I got greedy. I still think I was under 60 on 55 zone, but maamu clocked me at 68 and the zone was FORTY FIVE. Seven years on that road, and I didn't know the limit was 45.
  

• Doc adjusted my orthotics in total of 7 minutes. All this fuss for f'ing 7 minutes.
  

• When it came to payment, she handed me balance of $420. I am stumped. Wait, Orthotics #1 was done in Jan and Feb, costing $700. I had paid that in full, in two installments. Orthotic #2 was for $235, I had paid $100, so remaining shoulda been $135 plus the $55 office visit. So what's going on here. She said that you may have taken the pay-in-installments plan. I was still stumped. Simply said that they would have not let me walk out with Orthotic #1 had I not paid in full. And if I took any 'plan', I would know. She goes, 'I can take away two office visits of $55 for you if you want'. I said that that's not the point. I need to understand what's going on. I wasn't upset. I was too beaten up and tired to be sharp and argue. So was talking softly, just standing there, staring at her with a blank expression and asking. Finally, and I don't know how, she said, 'pay me $165. that's the remainder for orthotics #2, and the office visit. And your balance will be zero'. Still didn't add up. But hey, it got down from $420 to $165. Why should I complain more. I asked if I would later get a bill in my mail? She said she will give me a zero balance sheet, so keep that if any confusions occur later on. And that I don't need to pay any more.

Unless you happen to be a certain well-known multi-tasker, avoid chat in the middle of cooking.

I forgot abt the chappati on the tava. Wouldn't have done it otherwise (else would've taken the laptop downstairs into the kitchen)
