Driving around

more than 75 kms in one day. fighting traffic, breathing pollution, getting painted with dust and grime, while navigating through some known streets and a few unknown ones.  

Secunderabad - Begumpet - Hitec City - Breakfast - Kondapur - Jubilee Hills - Begumpet - Tea and Directions - Balanagar - Sanathnagar - Begumpet - Lunch @ 4 - Pot Market - Begumpet - Secunderabad - Hasmathpet - A little dinner - Secunderabad - Some more dinner - Home finally. Phew!

For the first time, yesterday, i drove so much within the city. And alone. Since my weekly offs don't match with any of my friends, i am generally left to myself and mostly i laze around at home the entire day catching up on my reading and spending time net surfing, rarely venturing out.

What i purchased? (I can't obviously roam around so much and not buy anything)

4 gold nose pins for about Rs 1200 (2 for me and 2 for Aru)

1 pair of silver earrings to use as nose ring for Rs 45 (Aru and i will share one each)

1 pair of gold earrings for Rs 1200

Another pair of gold earrings for a gift

1 wooden muddler for home and another for Aru for Ra 70 each

1 cake tin

1 set bright blue bucket and mug  for Rs 60

1 set green

1 dark blue plastic stool for Rs 115

1 laundry basket for Rs 80 ( I have a blue theme going in the bathroom room and need blue towels and a blue doormat)

1 red and 1 yellow melamine platter for Rs 180

2 square red yellow platters for Rs 120

2 white ceramic bowls for dunking idlis in sambar for Rs 240

2 black diamond shaped glass platters for Rs 60 each

A big steel dabba for my catering biz (that's what Aru calls it)

12 juice glasses and 6 wine ones for Aru's office

2 bright yellow utensil trays for Rs 200 each, i think

A murukku gun for Rs 240

And one brass plate for kneading dough for Rs 156

I had a good time. Got a little tired, a little overwhelmed but finished a lot of pending work. And also forgot to fill fuel.
