Dhobi ka kutta
Am going to shift house on saturday. And its giving me the jitters. I mean, i'm no mean traveller. Give me 15 mins notice, and i'm off. I know exactly what to pack, and if i forget something, my tours are never long, so at the most I might suffer bad breath for a couple of days if I forget my toothbrush! However, this is a different ball game altogether. The sheer scale is mindboggling. Not only do I have to pack ALL my clothes, but everything else except the walls, the floor, the ceiling, and the built-in wardrobes. While some might think this eases the task in the sense that there is no selection to be done, 'everything must go' kind of situation, the enormity of the task overwhelms me.
Its not the huge items such as the dining table or my 5000 watt Sony that overwhelm me so much. I know the packers will take care of that. Its more of the knick knacks that bother me. All out liquid, torch, harpic, detergent bar... i dont want to bore you with a list of items, but believe me, its unbeliaveably large.
So I started out today... got 2 suitcases from a collegue's place. Dumped half my cupboard in it and finished one major work: That of sorting out tons of paper - bills, visiting cards, etc etc.. tore off unnecessary ones and kept the others in a safe place. Its amazing how many visiting cards i'd gathered. Someone wud think i was a really gregarious businesssman!
Well, hope gau is able to make it tomorrow... he said he'd be staying over the night to help me out.. but knowing him he might get caught up in some other work..

First of all..take a chill pill
secondly... take a deep breath, now breathe in and out...
We all shift all the time, its not that tough and it will happen smoothly..all u need is some planning and just pack the stuff and since its an inter city transfer i dont really know what u r cxribbing about, hire a taxi and take the stuff one by one, in lots from house A to house B. Its as simple as that
Have fun packing and all the best ;)

Repeat :
I think u are having an anxiety attack and are prone to it probably due to deep psychological problems that went unresolved in your childhood, now manifested in different forms. This being one.
An alternate theory - You just need some ENO.
Another alternate theory - You just need some Alcohol.
Another Another alternate theory - You are basically nuts and nothing can help you.
