I experienced something ou rarely do in Mumbai, a power cut. At 12.30 am and lasted upto 3.00 am. The temperature was soaring and I couldnt sleep, so I wasted time by taking a flashlight and my cellphone and fooling around. The result , a suprisingly blank-expressioned photograph. You can see the boredom on my face :

What I didnt realise then, but realise it now after looking at the photograph, is that something really huge bit me that night in the dark on my face. that pest control is waning already. Time to make a phone call and wage war on the bugs again. and the bite turned into a wierd boil. Very ugly and hurting a lot and its full of pus. I am sure you wanted to know that . But I decided to do something about it and was able to get the pus out…it oozed out slowly in response to the steam. And now, the boil is much better and hurts a lot less :

I hope whatever bit me hasnt left…cause I’d like to swat it with my own two hands. Not that I looked excessively handsome without a boil. But hey, at least my face was something I grew entirely by myself.
