Extra Terrestrials

I wonder.

If an extra terrestrial were to come down or telescope into our lives would they be awe struck at some of our simplest and yet the most amazing things here on earth?

Would they be amazed at the perfect physics of a soap bubble? Would they be amused or marvel at the twinkle in the eye induced by a floating colorful fragile, perfect bubble? 

Would they find our white cotton-puff clouds amazingly dreamy and unhindered?

Would they see our world with the same  wondrous excitement as little kids spotting a bird and an aeroplane in the sky?

Well, I'm not sure if the extra terrestrials would be impressed. There are two girls (Miss Haana and I) who are mighty amazed!

Soapy Bubbles

I just walked in on this conversation that was underway in the bath rub:

Bubbles! Bubbles, come here bubble.
Oh so many bubbles!!
Go there bubble, you go that side.
Go that side bubble.
Good! Good bubble.
Want to build a tower bubble?
...
...

The conversation kept on going but I stopped listening-in once I saw who else was in the bath tub. Other than this little girl, the tall bottle of baby shower gel that was until now only half filled with shower gel, was now fully filled and floating in with the bubbles and a soapy baby! It was filled with a diluted watery mix of a little soap and lot of water!

Oh no-no! I retorted but much like the police in Hindi movies, too little, too late :-)

Unsatisfactory State of Affairs

Someone in this establishment is dissatisfied with the current state of affairs. Especially as it relates to hygiene. So far I was under the impression that we do just fine. We do regular tidying and cleaning. Laundry once a week usually on Sundays.

But that dissatisfaction became apparent when this morning I found the laundry basket full. It is only Thursday. Somebody has been filling the laundry basket. 

On closer inspection, the following were excavated from the laundry basket: bathroom slippers, hair dryer, contact lens fluid bottles, unopened soap boxes, little cloth purse, hair brush, band aids, clean t-shirts...

I think I know where they are coming from.
