Back after a break!

And back with a bang too! First off, a big thanks to all my friends who wished me a Happy B'day! It was a very hectic B'day followed up by a very hectic weekend. I actually managed to make it home for a long weekend after almost a month and a half. It was heaven, just sitting around and lazing in my home.
Apart from having to pretend not to have heard mom's snide comments regarding your's truly reaching marriageable age, and occassional proposals that i would turn down offhanded, the break was rather enjoyable. I did manage to met up with old friends, visit some temples and generally spend the day sleeping in. With all the food (sweets and otherwise) that I consumed in the last three days i feel as if i have gained around 5-10 kilos, mostly around the middle.
Work is going on in a hectic (snigger...) pace as usual. Hopefully an initial release would be out sometime before the end of this month.
Speaking of releases, this weekend saw a couple of movie releases that I desperately want to see. One is Shivaji (The Boss), starring Rajni and the other one is Fantastic 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer. Both of them are opposite ends of the spectrum in terms of cinematic style, but there are two common threads of grand budget and total unbeleivabilty in both the films, which make them quite attractive to me.. :-D .. Oh, and there is one more film I really want to see... Shootout at Lokhandwala! I heard that Vivek Oberoi has put in an awesome performance in the movie. And that "ganpat" song makes me laugh every time I hear it.... especially the "kaishwarya" line due to the history between the two.. Anyways, enough from me. Signing off now to do some actual work... Hmmm.. Time for a coffee break before I start I think..

Mid Week Blues

Here we are at the middle of yet another week.

I was thinking yesterday about how we face each day of the week. Monday is when you stumble into office all muddled up from the weekend enjoyment..
On tuesday we slowly wake up to the fact that there is an office around us and there is work that needs to be done.. Hmm.. Well.. Well.. Well... we have the rest of the week for that..!
For me atleast, wednesday is usually the time when I wake up to a rather obvious fact. I have managed to cross half the distance between two weekends. The fading memories of last weekend is replaced by the anticipation for next weekend. In addition to that we decide to start doing whatever work is there for this week... from tomorrow..
Hmm.. Then there is thursday.. which is when you realize you have not made any plans for the weekend.. So you start checking out new movie releases.. Possible weekend trips.. Whatever that keeps you ticking..
Finally.. Friday.. Beautiful Friday.. arrives... And quickly turns ugly when you find that you forgot to do most of the work that you were supposed to do that week.. And then you start catching up on anything and everything in a last ditch attempt to clean the slate before the day ends.. Then when people start leaving office and you are about the only when left, you promise yourself..."Next week I am going to finish all this stuff early.. Let me go and enjoy this weekend for now...."


And thennnn... The weekend starts.. And we forget all our promises...

Hmm... Is this me???

Another weekend came to a close. It was a pretty hectic one too. One of things that made this weekend unforgettable was the rain god. Bangalore got its first monsoon shower on sunday, and i had pretty much first hand experience. Riding on my thunderbird in knee deep water over "roads". Other than that petrol got stolen from my bike (again)! I seriously need to put a fuel lock on the damn bike... Hmmm... As soon as my office schedule gets a little less hectic I will..
