My Dog Can 'Lick' Anyone!

I was on sick leave for 3 days last week. Someone from office asked me if it was a case of Ergophobia. I replied stating that it may be Contagious and that it’s better to stay away from me. :P

People keep finding faults with me. I think that the world is getting obsessed with me. Therefore, the world should go get a life! :D :D

My Bank keeps sending me these updates (emails, sms) regarding my bank balance. What’s wrong with these people? Why do they want to make me miserable by showing me my account balance? I think they too should go get a life!

My German Shepherd, who is the sworn enemy of cats of the locality has actually made friends with a kitten! Bugger was treating it like a PUP, sniffing it and would probably have given it a good licking too if I didn’t notice. Unbelievable!!!  ...considering the history of violence my GSD has .I called him aside and told him- "Becky ...Dude...For the 1st time in my life... I'm ashamed of training you. You have let me down man! Biiiiig TIME! :( *Nodding head vigorously with regret*

Maybe this is the sign of harmony, coexistence and global peace!!!


Like Rocky Balboa said -"If I can change, and you can change, everybody can change. " :D (The question is ...Change into what?)

Mondays!


Waking up and going to office by 7 am on Monday has to be the sickest biological, physical and mental torture tool invented ever. For a change, can’t someone declare Monday a holiday! I don’t even mind working on Saturdays (well… at least theoretically :) ).

Last week, I attended kickboxing class on 6 days! Still it’s kool .No fatigue. But it all changes once I get to office. Feel like a granddad on a rocking chair while sitting in office and staring at the computer screen for the best part of 9 hrs :( .Well I won’t complain much. Most of my IT brothers and sisters share the same sentiment! :)

Nowadays I get irritated looking at most social networking sites .'Faceboasting' from people (me included) has taken off to new levels. Some folks put up updates bragging that they did this and that. Updates also involve statements which are intended for others to respond .The sickest part is that I fall into these traps and end up responding and putting ridiculous updates some times .

:(

I was listening to this song- ‘Live like we’re dying ‘by the Irish band- The Script.

Loved the lyrics! There is this part which goes like…

"We only got 86 400 seconds in a day to turn it all around or throw it all away".

By the way, 86400 seconds= 24 x60x60 (if you couldn’t figure it out the first time (like me!)) .I think I wasted quite a few seconds already writing this post.Oh no! I have to run now and make use of the ‘remaining time’ left in the day to turn in all around :P…

Kickboxing rocks!!!

It's almost been 3 months that I have posted something here. No! This blog is not officially dead! :) I have been attending kickboxing classes for last 3 months. It’s amazing. It keeps you fit and healthy. And it’s fun too. And hey, you learn ways to defend yourself. I have started spending more time with my family as I felt guilty earlier for not doing so. I guess this is the best time of the 3yrs that I was in Bangalore .Touchwood! Some pics from class…

Very tired! 'Tired' will be an understatement. I have made a new resolution that I will sleep at least 6 hrs on a trot (Never happened in last 3 yrs or so).Too many tensions and distractions in mind. Never been like this. Thankfully work is not getting affected by all this .Went home on the weekend. Traveled on 5 different buses enroute home. Was trying something new. Will never repeat it. Was left with extreme posterior muscle pain all day.

Akon's lip sync in the IPL closing ceremony sucked big time .Katrina was a relief though :)
Rain is sexy when you are at home .The stray cat who we feed every day nearly bit off our dog's ear. It was defending its kitten that our dog nearly swallowed. All are well now. Was pissed with the stray cat. If not reprimanded, was going to break the stray cat's leg. Was advised that I should control my temper. Nearly lost temper hearing the advice.
On another day, went on a long drive on the bike with the sky over cast .Felt good.
Went around the field with cam. Clicked lots of beautiful pics.
Had that sinking feeling when I was about to leave home. Wished I din't have to leave. Slept like a baby in the bus. Reached safe and sound. Went to meet nephew. Had lots of fun with him. He tried to teach me things which I taught him a month ago. Pretended that I was hearing it all for the first time :)

Decided to get rid of certain negative elements from my life. Some people learn it the hard way .I am one of them!

Cricket tournament in office is coming up. Will be in trouble due to lack of cardio. Have to shed some extra kilos very soon.

Recently haven’t read anything substantial apart from SRK’S interview in FILMFARE.His interviews are really kool as he is an intelligent dude and has his way with words.

Only aim left in life today is to get some sleep. Eyes are half shut. See ya Zzzzz oooon………

Early morning thoughts

Last weekend I watched the movie 'Marley and me’. It was a sweet movie about a family and their life with their Labrador named Marley. Bought back lots of memories. We always had dogs in the family (and I didn’t mean relatives :)) .As a kid they were my best friends. The best thing about them is that they love you unconditionally with out expecting anything in return. The worst thing is that we always end up out living them. People who never had pets probably won't understand this but when you lose a dog, it’s as if one of your own family member died.

Recently, I went through some instances in life which made me realize that maybe I am not that well equipped to face bad situations. Especially the ones where people who are really close to you turn their backs on you for selfish reasons. I never wish ill for anyone. But when someone who is close to you leaves you out in the cold, you get hurt beyond words. Maybe I am not as tough as I thought I was. Or maybe I have mellowed down with age :) .I am blessed with supporting parents who stick with me during good and bad times. And like my dad says,'You don't learn to walk without falling down’. There is a lot to learn from it all.
