    Time Event
    10:07p
    And we're back........
    I tried. Ah well.. not really suicide but something similar, metaphorically speaking. Blogsome didn't work; neither did livejournal, ironically and deadjournal seemed like too trite an option. So I am back to square one, as they say.

    A brief summary of the past few months (Not necessarily in a chronological order) is as follows:

    - Got my PG degree for whatever it is worth.
    - Stayed in Lucknow much longer than I had planned.
    - Won a very morbid bet with a friend which was settled with a coffee a few days back. (That it involved my dog slaying a helpless rodent would suffice for the purpose of a summary I think)
    - Joined www.orios.gi. Yes. We do sell flowers. You can find them here.
    - Moved into a PG with a roommate who is thankfully real cool and a landlady who is not bad either.
    - Almost changed houses last month and ended up losing 8K in the rather stupid bargain.
    - Moped and brooded and moped some more.
    - Decided I needed to take charge of my state of mind.
    - Ended up spending 6K in the bargain. Buying myself the Calvin and Hobbes hard bound collectible. Yay!!!
    - Decided I needed to find less expensive ways to happiness.
    - Decided happiness is stupid thing anyway.
    - Re-started the journal.

    End of story.

    Somewhere in between, I also deleted my poetry blog and discovered I am terribly asocial. I need to change.

    This week I go for a trek with my office colleagues. Physical activity here I come!

    A Very Happy Independence Day To The Blog.

    A souvenier from my trip:

    A poem I had posted on my now dead five-post-old livejournal (R.I.P.)

    Incident

    I look across the table and think
    (fiery with love)
    Ask me, go on, ask me
    to do something impossible,
    something freakishly useless,
    something unimaginable and inimitable

    Like making a finger break into blossom
    or walking for half an hour in twenty minutes
    or remembering tomorrow.

    I will you to ask it.
    But all you say is
    Will you give me a cigarette?
    And I smile and,
    returning to the marvelous world
    of possibility
    I give you one
    with a hand that trembles
    with a human trembling.

    -- Norman MacCaig

    A dedication to this blog and a sorry... (The break-up was really not worth it)
    There are things that need an apology
    and there are things that don't.
    The ones that do
    are all worth existing for.
