Comedy of (T)errors!

This blog is being written in the morning because the incident is still raw in my mind. After all this is Mana manthana right? My daughter wanted me to get up early (earlier than usual) to go for walking. The reason was that I could not get up yesterday morning. She was sore the whole of yesterday. When I left, my wife was still sleeping. I tried to wake her up and her words were not clear when she told what quantity of milk to be bought from store. So, as a good Samaritan I sent a message to her to wake up. Oops! trust these modern mobiles! I had pressed the number of my colleague who is traveling. Poor fellow! He must have been bewildered to get a wake up message from Bangalore. But as a good person he called and inquired. I apologized and disconnected. He was very cordial for working very late and taking a late night bus and a 8 hours travel in front of him! Later I called my wife on her mobile which I intentionally left on her pillow. The line was not reaching her. After 3 futile tryings I called the land line and disconnected. Then I got a serious call from her. What is your problem? why do you call so many times? why did you call on the land line when you know that there are other people sleeping? It was terrifying to listen to all those words. Talk about being helpful and trying to wake up a person so that she doesn't have to hurry through her routine!
