The 100th Post!

This is Cloud Nine's 100th Post! And a come back after a short hiatus. Having read so many bloggers' 100th post that thanks everyone in blogosphere for reading, commenting and revisiting the blog, i feel...it sucks to write a Memorial Service post;) So, here i go, in my original tongue-in- cheek style...

1. A 100 posts, i pat myself, God thank you for giving me so much free time to while away as a useless muse in blogger.com. Here after, see to it that this lady attends office properly on time and does her laundry on time, rather than typing away mad posts in the middle of the night!

2. One person who would be immensely happy if the missus stops blogging would probably be the Mister of the House who has to talk to the pillow every night, crooning his love, when the lady love tears her hair frantically trying to write something funny. Fun at the cost of a man who works 12 hours a day, who definitely needs a change and few loving words from a kind wife. Thank you Almighty, Mister didn't get ideas of kicking the lady's butt off his house! And Mister was kind enough to "adjust" with the multicolored inner wear that entered the laundry white and were spat out in vivid myriad colors- thanks to the dutiful Missus who attends to the laptop more than the washing machine!

3. Two little devils were having field day when Momma was busy with her leopard printed mad box. They had all the time in the world to paint the house walls with colorful water colors, mould and imprint color clay on the carpets, inserting pencils in the plug points to check the power supply, open- close- open game of the water taps in the bathrooms and cut paste papers on the fridge! Poor them, if Momma doesn't blog, how could they ever rag the pet dogs? Little devil two misses her dog training lessons now...Ronnie and Dixcy are a happy lot- Madam of the house trains the little devil now and they can now breathe in peace!

4. Facebook friends- ah...what would i be, without their LIKES and COMMENTS? Thrust compulsorily and marketed vigorously, poor them HAD to visit the blog once in a few days when Madam posts something new. And worse, if madam catches you online, beware, you have to answer a volley of questions regarding the post! You can't feign reading them...Poor you! Tsk...tsk...It was fun watching all friends go offline the moment Madam goes online- like a power shutdown!!! Madam is extremely grateful for the few souls who treaded the dangerous waters and had the patience to comment on the posts. Those Facebook friends who never visited the blog...grrrrrrr...Madam prays you fail in the next semester exams!


5. How can i forget my blogger friends? My physics master would be happy if he heard i finally deciphered Newton's Third Law! Every comment in friend's blog will be rewarded by a comment in your own blog;) So that means the comments given is proportional to the comments given! But then, to get those comments, i had to browse through many many blogs- some: too good, some: good but nevertheless, entertaining! Reading others' blogs helped me overcome my terrible fascination for mills and boon finally, in my early thirties!

So it is finally a BIG THANK YOU to Almighty for bringing me back to life with all vibrancy and all those smiles...Reading every feedback has done eons to boost my self esteem and constant bickering from the Mister who asks- "when is your next post?"  has shaped up what Cloud Nine is today- Confident and Righteous. So, if someone ever thought "Thank God, she has shut her mouth finally", Sorry folks, I AM BACK!!!

  16. Congratulations, today you might really be on cloud nine right? Or you just came back from there to write this? The last time I checked in, you were headed out. Was it destination Cloud Nine?

    Anyhow, congratulations!

    And about the bloggers commenting back, it's like a love quote by Beatles,

    In the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

    Keep writing, and I do hope that other physical entities of your house do bear up with you.


    Cheers,
    Blasphemous Aesthete
