Sleepless


It was one of those nights when I couldn't fall asleep.  From the frozen leg to the terrible head aches, reasons were adding up to my sleepless night which made things more difficult.  Only if he could have been home I would sleep in peace. The silence of the night, the water dropping sound from the tap and the ticking sound from the wall clock were adding to mess around with my mood. 

It was late, eleven at night and no sign of sleep but only increasing ache in my head. To idle away the time I decided to call a friend.  I spoke to him for couple of minutes and hung up.  People in Nepal sleep so early that I couldn't think of any other single soul to whom I could talk at such point of time. Tossing and turning in bed, I frisked for my laptop so that I could spend some more time chatting around but then I realised my laptop was gone.

It was one at night and I wanted to call my best friend. Being married I gave a second thought if it was alright to call a guy who is my best friend at such point of time. Marriage does weird thing, makes you matured and makes you act stupid too. Though my husband is very understanding and he understands how close I am with my friends no matter boy or girl, still the second thought emerged my mind and I decided to hang up when I heard a knock at the door.
“Who is it?” I asked. It was him.

In his memories

Old memories of ours,
flickers again and again.
A day so sweet, a day so sour,
in your memories now and then.

Tears play hide and seek
but I try not to think.
Everything come forth like it just happened 

moments is slipping, nothing again.

Eyes related problems


Eye alignment problem, aisa bhi hota hai kya? Weird! I had constant headache for past one week and I finally decided to see an eye specialist when I was in Kolkata. Just two tests and they declared that I have some eye alignment problem and this can be fixed with particular set of eye exercises. The only side effect of this is head ache and nothing else.  This was something new to me. Eye alignment problem?? Bipasa Basu huh?? Lol.

I immediately asked my husband to find out with the doctors in my town (Biratnagar, Nepal) if they have such exercise facilities and to my utmost surprise they do. It’s been two sittings and after each session I have a heavy head and eyes ache  too. I still have to go through minimum of 16 sittings. Duh, what a pain.

When I asked the Doctor the reason behind my dry eyes, he answered that I had big eyes and the moisture of eyes evaporates easily. People with big eyes have more problems than small eyes. Though he is a well renowned Doctor in Kolkata, his answers to my questions left me incredulous. Dry eyes have no healing except to use artificial tear drops called “Refresh Tears” every day which make your eyes less dry. For me, it started with a severe conjunctivitis which stayed for a month and then the problem went on.
