What are the chances?

Note: The below mentioned events are NOT works of fiction, they are actual occurrences in the extra ordinary life of "yours truly". The matter is NOT copyrighted and may be reproduced as and when wanted by anyone.

What are the chances?

1. Of you being late to work, the one time the mentor decides its a good time to ask the progress reports, the first thing in the morning.

2. Of seeing the person you've wanted to ask out all along(strolling with her girlfriends), when you are out on M.G road with a person who was in fact a second thought.

3. Of a friend asking you if you want Rossogullas he's brought, just after you had your fill of lunch followed by some lame desert, moaning there's no good food around.

4. Of spitting out a seed from the melon you just ate and it hitting the spoon at a perfect angle to drop into your favorite lemon juice, which you decided to leave until last.

5. Of finding the right shade of jeans, in the right fit, in the right texture, just after you've spent two grand on a close compromise just a few stores away?

6. Of spending double the normal amount on a bus ticket from Cochin to Bangalore, (after confirming that there are few other buses plying the same route, and the bus in concern is an AC) just to be put into another lousy, stinking local bus midway because the big bald bushy driver says, it will save him tax or something(God alone knows what he said, i knew it was wrong and at the same time, wanted all my teeth in place, just in case he decides he can't argue against my irrefutable logic)

7. Of spending the last few rupees on you have in your wallet on a nice biryani, and finding out that the bank hasn't cleared your check yet, so you are effectively broke.

8. Of finally deciding to go to the temple(after mom's repeated requests), only to find that its some special day today, and the place is literally choked with people, and you can't just go back coz you've traveled 10 Kms to get here.

9. Of the restaurant you heard has the best chicken tandoori ever, and it just runs out of the same the day you decide to visit.

10. Of going out with friends for a nice evening bash, and constraining your eating and drinks to a minimum in order to have a wallet with atleast some sort or self respect, only to find out in the end that it was a party being given by the guy who got placed for interns in some awesome company, and the bill is gonna be his pain.

11 .Of getting drunk at your first company party(to compensate the birthday bash goof up), and realizing that its your manager in front of you asking if you are enjoying the evening, you nod along dumbly hoping he missed the faux pas.

ok .. some of it may be exaggerated .. though the crux is true .... the ratios or odds as they call it are stacked up against me most of the times i presume...

or probably, the loneliness is getting to me, and am probably soon gonna be admit in some remote hill station based mental asylum.

or the most probable on, some one has access to my account and is using it to ruin my painstakingly built up reputation. creepy.
