loser.
“my time is a piece of wax falling on a termite – that’s choking on the splinters.”
No literally. This is a list of things I’ve lost in Delhi and the circumstances surrounding their ‘disappearances’.
1. Cellphones x04
First – left in office. The tragic thing is I realised after I had got downstairs, but I was too lazy to go back up, so I thought I would just get it the next day. It wasn’t there the next day. (unfortunate companion – Krish)
2. This phone actually lasted a while. It got lost in the Select City walk movie theatre in Saket, somewhere between the movies “Star Trek” and “Angels and Demons”. (unfortunate companion – Samanth)
3. Cheap Samsung phone. Was left in an auto on the way back home after a drink in Khan market. Sad thing is I checked for the phone on the wayhome and it was there, so I don’t know where I lost it. (unfortunate companion – Nitu)
4. Same story as 3. Different Auto. Got a call while approaching South Ex. So again I dont know where I lost it. and this is three weeks after losing the other phone. (unfortunate companion – Samanth)
2. Credit cards x 02
1. At Blues after paying for drinks. (unfortunate companion – Ashirwad)
2. This is part of item 3. Read on.
3. Wallet x 01
Left in an auto between the top of my lane and my house. With credit card, Media card, PAN card, 1000 INR, debit/ATM card. (all by myself)
4. i-pod touch x 01
Was on my table and was no longer there after we returned from a meeting. (victim – Durga)
5. Plastic lunch containers x many
Much to the wrath of my maid and the exasperation of Nitu.
6. Phone charger x 01
Left in Bombay after trip to visit friends. At least they can use it now.
7. Mp3 player x 01
Mysteriously disappeared somewhere in West Patel Nagar. Only one reported sighting = when I was moving in.
will update as soon as I lose something else. Maybe my mind if I keep this up.
