I was in a very sour mood while I was driving back from work today. When I stopped in one of the frequent traffic snarls that adorn the roads of Bangalore, I saw that next to me was an autorickshaw with a small girl and her family. The small girl reached out and touched the rear view mirror of my bike. I made my don't-mess-with-me face at her and she just smiled at me. My reflex was to smile back at her and my bad mood was promptly broken. Sometimes I wonder how many of these small opportunities to make someone's days better have I have missed.

A break from the xtremely geeky, beyond my comprehension posts.
I haven't known you as someone who likes kids in general, so good to learn that you do get influenced by those innocent smiles.
No matter how sour my mood is, 2 things that always make me happy are:
- A cute looking kid doing something cute.
- Alyson Hannigan's "At time at Band Camp... I stuck a flute in my pussy"
