Is it time ??!!

... to go off Orkut ?

.. to spend free time after work doing something useful ? Something that might be beneficial to me.. my health.. my marriage.. my career.. my financial situation... my mind ?!

Is it time really ? .. to grow up ?

So soon ? And I was jus getting started....

The countdown hath begun.. and it will end in less than half dozen days...

It's easy...

Back up.. farther and farther away ..

Till you can hear.. fewer and fewer words…

And then you pick those you want to hear.. and ignore the ones you find uncomfortable…

You play Chinese whisper with your friends.. tell them your version of the truth..

The convenient “truth”..

And they will believe you.. coz you’ll tell them someone else said it….

Not you…

Diarizing...

Left.. center.. right... center.. left.. center.. and repeat..

My boss says it isn't necessarily always physical stress that causes this kind of pain. He hinted that I maybe mentally stressed..

I told him I don't always realize it when I'm mentally stressed..

Effects of physical stress are easy to recognize.. I usually end up getting a new scratch on my car...

The gift of poetically representing the abstract is one I was born without.. well I'm sure no one's born with it... so its one that I never mastered...

I'm good at exactly the opposite.. once I understand something I can explain it tersely yet completely to someone who doesn't get it yet...

But.. on the other hand.. its been more than once that I have been accused of being a sophist..

I started to read Interpreter of Maladies.. short stories.. I didn't mind them at all...
After the first one I knew what to expect from the rest so I wasn't disappointed when nothing very significant happens in them...

I almost felt like I could write like her.. all I need is one incident.. or one dialog.. and then I have to sketch in the utmost boring familiar recognizable detail the events that lead up to it.. Basically pen down every insignificant link in the chain of thoughts that crosses the character's mind...

It shouldn't be difficult, maybe I should suggest this to Dad..

A dull pain..

.. in the neck..

Nothing much to blog about.
Not there was ever much to blog about before.. but the motivation is lower than ever...

I've stopped reading other blogs as well.. I don't find them as interesting anymore...
I don't know if it is actually the content that lacks punch of simply a lack of interest in what other people have to say about their lives/loves/interests or lack thereof.

It seems pointless.. almost stupid to discuss ideas, opinions etc. Simply words without action... They cause disagreements.. send my brain into hyperactive mode hence taking me longer to fall asleep..
And I need sleep to be able to get up and do what I have to do.. so I can make money so that I can then spend it on being able to do things that I want to do...

Still haven't been able to figure out what I'm really passionate about...

I like what I do.. most of the time.. but not always..
I was going to say "its not rocket science"..but then... who knows if I'd have really found "rocket science" exciting..

I thought about having a kid.. yea.. I did..
I hope it wasn't coz of boredom.. that would be sad..
But no.. I'm not ready for that as yet..

I have some new songs though... they don't make too much sense but I like them a lot...
