Update time…. Achtung!
charukesi May 5th, 2004
April just went by…. One of those months of total inertia…. Almost vegetation…. No work, no outing, no activity, not even blogging…. Had the Madras heat to blame…. And now with these cool refreshing showers in Madras, life suddenly seems more livable… woke up on Monday thinking about resuming blogging… Wednesday today… will blog regularly, will go out, will start work, will call Kingsley…. In any case, every blogger is allowed one such rambling pointless post from time to time…. And this one is an update on what I have been upto these last few weeks… Be warned….
Resumed some activity on ryze…. Had to atleast thank people who sent birthday wishes…. while on that, can’t imagine now there was a time when I thought 30 was old…. When it was soooo far off….. Ask me now… Why, 30 is just the beginning of one’s youth…. Especially when you see it just around the corner… Quarter life crisis, anyone?
Been reading a lot, as usual… two interesting books recently on travels in the UK… Bill Bryson’s Notes from a Small Island and now Paul Theroux on The Kingdom by the Sea…. Makes me long to be back in that small beautiful island….
Kitty has asked me if I have found a solution for my back problem…. If you have any suggestions, please let me know…. As far as my back ache is concerned, have been there done that…. tried all kinds of treatment…. Even surgery…. So, any ideas anyone?
Also been watching and enjoying elections tamasha on television…. What with the CAS fiasco, there is very little to watch on tv in any case…. Felt sick watching Vajpayee sharing the same platform with our CM here…. The same lady who abused the PM till recently…. Thank God for short memories…..
And while on tv, been appalled at the kind of soaps that are on in Tamil…. More on this soon (oh, I have lots to say on this)….. and also on another popular pastime in Madras (and other cities, to be sure), malling…. Soon….
