Hey folks! Long time no see. Well I've been kinda tied up with nose to the grind and all that. Well the bad news is Winter has bid adieu here, the good news is Spring is here. Wonder why they would name a season after a metallic hydraulic device. Yeah....i'm on to you...you're applying Frued right there. You're saying Romance + Attraction = SPRING!. Wash your mind out with soap! Well spring here doesnt last too long, it puts in a week-long guest appearance (if we're lucky) and then there's the almost 7 months of summer punctuated by a month or two of soggy Monsoons.
I've been upto no good in the past few months. My old laptop, a Toshiba Tecra went bust. I miscalculated the warranty.....thought it had run out and bought a new Compaq laptop. Then I realised that I should have the Toshiba repaired and use it. So I send it to the service centre where they announce I still have a year worth of warranty left! Whoopsie! While they were going at the Toshiba, I was happy with my Compaq....till after a few weeks the brand new laptop started overheating and shutting down without warning (which it still is). Well, now i'm stuck with the Compaq, and my Toshiba ain't back from the repairs yet. I call it bad mojo, guess Bill Gates would call it Nerd Luck!
I also bought a new car. Nothing fancy, a Suzuki sedan. Since I bought it 5 months back, it's been scratched in 3 places and I've changed 6 chauffers. Why? Bad Mojo. Seems chauffers loved to drive my old cars....Landmaster, Ambassador, Contessa, Ford much better, because they would stick around for years. But give them a state of the art, cutting edge, hi-tech piece of automotive wonder (yeah i know i'm exaggerating), and they turn tail. Nerves I guess.
Well thats dosage enough for the time-being methinks......hoping to read your comments on this. Thank you for your comments on my previous posts....except one guy/gal who posted the contents of a website as a comment....to that person I say ....Get a life dude/dudette!
Yep that's me.
Well well well, aren't we the sneaky one? I'm talking about the confounded weather we're having down here. Started off end of last year. Winter just wouldn't show up. Even Christmas was warm. Then it did show up for like 30 days in January, two days of spring, and boom summer was here. Yep, scorching, sweaty, sticky summer. It's the peak of summers now at 40 Degrees Celsius (there's talk of it going to 45!). We are expecting Monsoon to arrive in the first week of June (yep even thats delayed this year). Don't you just HATE summer? Your skin burns, you're constantly drenched in sweat, if you stay out too long you get a heat stroke, you don't feel like eating anything. Yeah, thats what summer did to me this year; for the past 5 days I haven't been able to eat meat. Those who know me well will tell you my daily diet contains 90% meat content. No disrespect meant to other food groups, but I simply cannot accept grass or leaves or flowers or roots as FOOD. Thats the way I am. If i have to ever order vegeterian food from a Take-Away, I consider that a terrible waste of money. Yeah I see a lot of Freudian analysis going on in your minds right now. The only credit I am willing to give my dear departed inspiration Sigmund, is that I have this terribly nice friend, if you saw him you wouldn't believe it, but he's a vegeterian, or as he says a 'vegan'. His discreet and subdued hints at the goodness of vegetables might have something to do with it. Anyway, I'm sure if I type beyond this, you're all going to stop reading, so i'll conclude, Betty thanx a lot, seems you're the only one who read my last blog. Cheers!
This is my first blog. For the life of me I never thought I would ever be doing something called 'blog'. But here we are, in open cyberspace, trying to open our hearts and minds to all who care to visit this page and look. Is this the ultimate form of extrovertism? A deperate cry of a child for attention? A loners' moan? Or is it a way to make our thoughts known to anybody and everybody? I know I sound cynical, maybe even negative. But thats the way I feel about it. isn't that what this is all about?
Till next time, or the time I think of an actual topic....aurevoir.
