Ferris wheels

I was home, and there was the annual fair going on...with all the fanfare of a carnival. And a very very special friend of mine...someone who's almost as close to me as my own brother visited by chance. He is homophobic though, but that's another thing. So we went to the fair, and for the first time in my life, I suddenly had the courage to get on the Ferris wheel...and he was there with me...and we were both shit scared, and were screaming our guts out. He's a doc, and then he said that I should find a fixed point of focus, and everything would be fine. So I stared at his eyes, and did not take my eyes off his till the ride was over. And everything was fine...even great...even almost orgasmically great!

Funny thing how our lives are just like ferris wheel...everything would be just fine, or even great if we could only find a fixed point to focus on.

I wish it were easy to find that point to focus on.

I wish the point of focus always stayed stationary relative to me like his eyes on the ferris wheel gondola.

I wish I could find a place to stand steady for a moment with someone.

I wish I could make that moment eternity.

Bloody Homophobia!


Here it is - tell me that you have seen this, does this blatent homophobia make your blood curl!


It does for me, I know how short of blood our blood banks are and Have many a times had to give blood in emergencies, all this while staring at the writing on the wall - in Bold..

You should never give blood if:You're a man who's had sex with another man, even safe sex using a condom

Personally, I did what I did because I knew that I was safe and they needed blood. But this discrimination has to stop!
Here are the other people who can give blood, but not Me!
A straight man who has sex with a different girl every weekend can give blood TODAY.
Intravenous Drug users can give blood after 1 year.
Prostitute users can give blood after 1 year.
Those who have had sex abroad in a high risk HIV country can give blood after 18 months
Here's a movement in the UK, thats working for getting gays the right to donate blood.

A

This is officially my first post on the Curry Closet. I had to blog about something Spicy! And the choice was obvious, I had to blog about A!

The move to Chennai can be hard for any one, and I was no exception. Add to it my predilection of good food and brash Panju bois...both of which are extremely rare in Chennai. I was home sick, tired of iddli and sambhar and given notice by the office that I needed to get a pad, I had overstayed at the hotel for an extra 14 days..bowing down to such pressures I braved out and found the pad.

I braved for a month, stayed alone, and it had its advantages , but the novelty soon wore off.

I met a few
people, A was the third guy I met..I was already at the table drinking tea at the Cha Bar, in waked A, nope he Slithered, his camera in hand and a smile that flashed.

Did not take long to do the pleasantries, and It was down to business..there were too may places where we found common ground.

Except for his annoying habit of clicking at everything and anything, I was willing to give this a try. Little did I imagine, that this was going to be a trip, a good one!

A - My Flatmate, Keeper of secrets, Nag about the House, Sous Chef,..I do have an long list of officious sounding titles that he holds in the Curry Closet, none come close to describing him..so he is simply A , my friend. Thank You !
