Finally! Thanks to a friend [ you know who you are!], today @ 2:20 am in the morning I decided I would/should start blogging. It has taken me a great deal of time and thought, god knows why, just in deciding that I should blog. Sitting on my couch, hungry and bored...i searched the internet for something to do. After the 'hubster' woke me up, all limbs on me and enthusiastically talking to someone in his sleep, trying to get into my cozy blanket and push me off my side of the bed, there was pretty much nothing to do except get on youtube. One 'amitabh bacchan' video later, which i repeated over and over again, time seemed to pass as slow as it possibly could. How ironic... earlier that day all i had wanted was for time to freeze. 24 hrs is just not enough time i thought: to get up, do yoga, get my butt to work,set successful experiments,get results, analyse them, play a game or two of basketball with cosmopolitan friends, go meet my folks and nephew and cats,have hot dinner, spend time with 'hubster', spend time recreating alone, spend time worrying about the unsuccessful distraught career thats totally going in the wrong direction,spend time just worrying in general,bitch to yourself about the totally uncooperative people in your life and re-reverify that you were right,right from the first damn day and that they had it coming a long time back,catch something on tv to connect with the world and prevent yourself from winning the 'how to lose friends and alienate people and be totally out of touch with anything relevant' award in real life.
So anyway, in that slow moment of desperation, i found my very humble yet crazy ape alter ego frodos wanting to be heard. Lets create a blog he said.Just for you and me.
Life,after all, @ 25, can make you think of strange things...i guess!
That and i read Iyer's blog online and i just wanted to copy.

Hey Frodo!..Or does Frodo only come out to play at ungodly wee hours of the morning?
ReplyDeleteYou're too kind!...all this praise may go to my fattened head( although may help balance the rest of my expanding frame..not a bad thing eh?)
So...yes Congrats on coming over to the dark side! keep writing..its addictive! You can trust I'll always be awake at ungodly hours too..even if only because I'm on a different hemisphere in Africa!
Deep earth-shaking thought process always finds light during the night ( golly that rhymes!), and of course generalized disgruntlement with life is no stranger either!
Keep blogging ...tequilla~
