Jinxed.



26 n counting.

The weather is really conducive to add to my tally of accidents. Wet roads, pathetic road sense of Bangaloreans. All Schumi n Rossi wannabes.

Still at my exciting job of “Staring at the monitor”. Try it out. Its awesomely mind-numbing.
No work. Sitting n pondering over my extensive collection of accidents.
Its hard to remember each n every one, but the ones i do remember are so clear in my head that to this day I have sleepless nights.

Yikes.

The permutations and combinations of accidents. How many types of accidents can happen? As a wiseman said there are only 7 stories in this world. Every other story is just another modified, spiced up version of the 7 basic ones. Does this apply to accidents also?

100kmph, 0 kmph.
Bike, scooter or on foot.
Dry roads n wet roads.
Highways n busy streets.
Humans n animals.

Anymore combinations or participants? I have no idea. Will find out I am sure.

Somehow I am always fascinated with symmetry(n it aint the reason I am straight). This need for symmetry has invariably left symmetrical scars on my body. Fun to see them n remember each incident. Shoulders, elbows, palms, waist, knees, toes. The biggest scar is on my neck. Absolutely amazing the way I got it. Hilarious. But if it had gone wrong even a bit I wudnt have been writing this.

Elaborating on all my accidents wil take up so much of my “valuable” work time. Will do that eventually.

For now its fun to write this blog cos at this time its my only option to stay awake.

“The show must go on”.

It will, I am very sure n on this road I will always tread alone.

Life



Can life be complete?
Yes n No.

Yes, if all ur needs and desires are fulfilled.
No, because as humans our desires have no end.

Contradictory? Yes, very much so.

At 23, my life seems complete.
Gr8 parents, friends, money(i am human, i still need more) and Love.

All these years i have always learned to enjoy every part of my life to the fullest. Wats the point of waiting for that ultimate joy and miss out on the small elements of fun each day has to offer.

A smoke, chat with friends, good food(aaaah), bike rides, playing games, lazing away, movies, drinking, coffee(a lot can really happen over a cup of coffee :P) and many more things.

Why am I writing this?
Am I a writer? Am I a “Litty-Shitter”? NO.

The sole reason for me writing this piece is because I don’t have anything else to do. Why? Because all the aforementioned things have somehow vanished from my so called “working, responsible” life.

Damn. I am a Software engineer. It aint that bad, but right now I am sitting in front of the comp staring at the monitor. This has been happening for the past 2 weeks. How long can a person sit at one place and stare at the monitor. Yuck. Very Yuck.

I look forward to my weekends with such greed that it amuses me. Gone are the days when I used to spend each day loafing arnd. Now I have to “schedule” my loafing arnd activities. Absolutely amazing.

Thank heavens that I have a gr8 bunch of friends to be with at the end of each day. A special person to spend time with.

And food. How can I not mention food. Sick n tired of eating at restaurants. I crave for home made food so bad.

Hmmm…….wat have I written till now??? Do I have any clue as to wat this post is all about? No. Do u? if yes lemme know.

Adios Amigos.

I am off to my ultra-exciting job of “Staring at the monitor”.

And I read this post again to see wat it means. I am lost.

But is my life complete. Can I still wear Raymonds clothes and proudly say “The complete man”???????????
