Shaolin and headbutting..

Today once again, Dad remembered head conditioning scenes from various Shaolin movies.

This was after being head butted on his nose, once again.

This sequence goes like this:

• Dad is carrying Nischal.
  
• Dad tries to kiss him.
  
• Nischal turns towards dad and headbutts him on his face.
• Dad lets out a 'ooh', 'aah' or an 'ouch'.
  

The 'my-son-can't-do-anything-wrong' mom thinks it's because Nischal has a big/heavy head, and still can't keep it straight.

Dad thinks he hears phrases like

"Keep away, you unshaven mongrel!",

"Again? Take that !"

"Just keep asking for it, don't you?"

or other kind words from Nischal. Maybe all those headbutts are doing things to Dad's brains.

After he dabs nose, he peers into Nischal's face.. and sees no sign of any hostility. Just a serene smile.

So the next day, he works up his courage, and .. BAM! - the sequence repeats.

Given the frequency of visits, the doctor thinks dad is just ashamed to admit being beaten by his wife. Dad prefers him thinking that way.

Meanwhile dad now has theories about Nischal's previous life. He keeps measuring Nischal's head, checks the shape, the damage to his own nose, and googles for images of past Shaolin monks' heads.

Early morning code review..

Nischal wakes up early - around 5-6 am - for his milk.
Dad feeds him, and puts him to sleep by rocking him.

Some music also helps - played on dad's laptop.

So he stares at the screen as though the java code there is actually the music.

Dad - the typical geek - is already fantasizing that his son might start seeing music in code.
Nischal, probably is thinking - 'Smile about the music, or frown at the messy code - what should I do ?' *Sigh*
'Maybe I'll just mess myself instead, give dad a taste of his own medicine..'
