Simply stupid!


Today a real funny incident happened, which I could just not resist myself from sharing with you all. After reading this, you will not wait for a second to bestow the title of "Simply Stupid" to none other than ME :P

Me, natty and sumi are really excited about this Coorg trip and obviously everyone has witnessed our level of excitement. We haven't booked our tickets..simply cos my salary wasn't credited into my account. Today, around 2.30pm, my phone beeps and I receive a msg from IDBI saying my salary has been credited. With sheer excitement, I withdrew my ticket fare from the ATM, reached home, sipped on some cool water melon juice and headed towards the station with a friend to book our tickets. Juggling the traffic, my friend pulled up the gear and raced his bike and we reached station sharp at 7.30 as the counter shuts at 8pm. After standing in the queue for about 15-20 mins..it was our turn to book the tickets. I opened my wallet and to my horror, realised I forgot to carry their(sumi and natty's share) money. My friend rushed to an ATM to help me out, and as he inserted his card..the machine gave up and it showed some error. Here the clock struck 8pm and the window of the counters shut; we looked at each other and couldn't stop laughing.

That moment I had mixed feelings – embarassment, anger yet stupid!! But, as one my frd rightly puts, "Tomorrow is another day" ..so I eagerly await tomorrow, not to repeat the same mistake but to stand in the queue and book our tickets.

Here we come COORG!!! :) :) :)
