ok every time i come to lahore to visit my cousins we have a few "sayings" we hold on to until they are cannonized in the family and jokes revolve around it until the original joke is lost and we have to merely raise an eyebrow or say a word and that's followed by incessant laughter. this time i got a few stories i thought were blogworthy but i'll spare the masses and just stick to one. ok here goes. i finally gave into the urge of blogging a conversation following en suite my cousin. by the way, this took place in urdu so i can't be blamed for what's lost in translation.

4: i need to go to the bookstore
2: why?
4: i want to get some books
2: we have some books
3: they have the same trash with mistresses
4: i don't like mysteries

i'm going to tease 4 until she's old and love every moment of it.
