The I :
The poem by Bree Rapczak in Freshlimesoda about the i was fantastic. It suits us all.

I

howling
growling
crying out
dying out
ever loyal
forced to toil
never free
always be
seen by some
known by none

LBW or HBW :

I wish Sachin could score another 29 centuries in the test matches before he settles down as a commentator or mint millions by starting a cricket coaching centre. But y’day when he was taken off for a duck, India started to do their own jobs and switched off the television sets. My instinct said he wasn’t out and I was right. But the umpire wanted to compensate for the lives he gave for sachin in first innings and declared he was lbw.

I was nostalgic y’day thinking about cricket which we played as teenage boys. Those were days when we played cricket in muddy grounds with the hot chennai sun literally broke our heads and thats when we quarreled a lot about LBWs. There is a myth about LBW. It looks like it is the only thing that both the teams had taken oath not to listen to the umpire. I remember an incident in my 10th std when we played in a crowded ground on a sunday morning. One of our opposite team mates, took the stump and broke the umpire’s head for not declaring a LBW. Well, that was a HBW (Head Before The Wicket) !!!

I swear by …
I have gone crazy in the past few weeks. As nidhi, mentions it, writers love movies. That includes a short story writer who are small timers like me. Well, i’ve completed the sequel to my orginal short story named the duplicate dream. I am the only writer probably who would have written a sequel to a short story. My ideas of making this a trilogy is at the back of my mind. I wish I could meet David Davidar to publish this short story. Currently, I need to WATCH MOVIES. 😦 But here i am in my office cublicle on a monday morning preparing for a technology presentaion scheduled this afternoon. Well, who said software engineers don’t day dream.

I have actually been off from writing blogs for 2 full weeks. I miss them a lot. Quite a lot to write of the past week’s experiences. I swear by the moon and the stars to write a lot on my blog. Hope i do !!

BUGGED 😦

Got bugged up the whole week on the idea of blogging. probably i have a writer’s block ( hey, my block is about what to write) . Midweek i was trying to write my views on VP Prabhakaran’s interview to the world media. I had no time to scribble that day …so i had to drop that plan . And now it is one more weekend , i have become a weekend blogger. Probably next week, I hope to scribble a lot and get ready to read those.

One more WEEKEND :

Thats 3 days since i wrote . Not a lot has happened since then. I wanted to see The Beautiful mind and ended up with Kannathil Muthamitaal for the second time. It was an amazing piece of cinema. Lately, i have been listening to kishore kumar . Honey smooth voice. He is one of the singers who is very versatile. His Chalte Chalte and Pyaar manga hai tumee se are my favourites. Even SPB is a similar genius . I need to write quite a lot on SPB and his hmmmm…some other day.
