I just help ma set up Saraswati-r ashon. I like these traditions. Like giving alpona always or singing the saraswati vandana I learnt at school. I'm not at all religious. But I like talking to the murtis once in a while. Sometimes they talk back. I'm sad about the other murti leaving. She's looking at me rather wistfully now. Just the other day she told me, "Well atleast bochore akbar toh porte dekhlam".

talk to murtis and everything?
*blush*blush* yes :)
wasn't there some show like that?
did you wear a saree???
Pujo was at 9 in the morning! Sari pora durer kotha. And what for? It's not like parar pujo anymore, where you go around once, just to hear "oo maa...shari porecho! koto boro hoye gacho!"...and smile awkwardly tripping all the way (with other equally challenged friends)to the pandal.
