The KSEB man had come this morning to take down the meter reading and give us the bill. I didn't like the way he'd irritatingly pressed the door bell. He seemed to be in a tearing hurry. He must begin to like his job and only then will he be pleasant; he doesn't realise that it will help his health too.

Was short of Rs.87/- at the medical shop after making a purchase. I also remembered that I hadn't given Rs.10/- to the baker and it was pending for two days. Had finished my walk, fetched the money and carried out the payments and felt nice. But the reactions were interesting:-
(a) Lekha. It can wait till tomorrow. Do you
have to go out this late?
(b) Gopan and Oommer. Sir, there was no
tearing hurry. Come on sir, what do
you think of us?
(c) The baker. You aren't late and you
don't have to apologise.
