random note 1

"Is your son married?"
"Haey..., so are you married now?"
"Amma, namma thambiya, .... 'abcd' kovillukku kootittu ponga."
"neenga vaenna onnu pannungo. ....'xyz' oorla oru kovil irukku. anga poyee 27 dharam pradhakshanam panna sollungo. oray maasathula nichayam aayidum".

sounds familiar? thats pretty much the lines which my parents and myself get to hear from all and sundry. starting from the lady who brings in the milk packet to the niece of my mother's second cousin's uncle's sister-in-law's "orepadi's" cousin twice removed!!!

Why this obsession with my wedding? Agreed, it is one of the top priorities in my life now. But why is it on everyone's agenda? Asking it once in a while is again ok. But not every time man. Contrary to popular opinion, no one is doing any favor to my family by asking such questions.
