The Happy Gardener

What - you thought only random nouns were allowed to be my blog's titles? Ha - I quite surprised myself here. I was going through my day as usual and then suddenly this word came to my head and I thought "It's a verb. But why the heck not?". So there. Thursday night. Man, I am ready for Friday and this weekend. It'll be nice to get out of here for a while and get some fresh air. I'll be able to clear my head and get back to my routine with renewed energy and focus after the long weekend. Or I could go to Michigan, realize that I always wanted to live in a city whose first three letters are all consonants and move to Ypsilanti, MI and live happily ever after. I'm just saying. Yes, I agree - time to sleep. Goodnight, me hearties. P.S: I already have a word for tomorrow's title(For my own reference it is C_ _ A_ _ E_

Distracted. One word to describe the week so far. Haven't gotten much work done. Have been too busy wondering about life and its journeys, the internet, books, careers, yoga, plants, windows (not the Microsoft ones), the passage of time, etc - not necessarily in that order. I wonder ( yes, wondering is my secret super power. Hang on, is that what Wonderwoman is all about? DO NOT GET SIDETRACKED!!) if I can put that up on my weekly report due tomorrow morning. I could also touch on my suspicions about me suffering from severe ADD. I am bored of this topic - moving on. I re-read this article today that one of my friends had pointed me to a while ago. I like it. I know it's kinda cheesy but it's sweet and seems honest and is ..... well, sweet. http://www.enjanerd.net/2004/04/20/the-daily-collegian-what -she-doesnt-know-will-kill-you/ And now off to sleep while Mahendra Kapoor croons "aaja aaja re tujh ko mera pyaar pukaare"

Today's title is not as unrelated to the entry as has been the case for my last couple of blogs 'cause I was just wondering if my hair ever going to grow as long as it was a few years ago. First I cut it, then I wonder. Typical me. Meanwhile, I have been working on finding a solution for an issue I've been having and in the process have been working with a customer service agent named Gobu. I kid you not. This guy's name is Gobu. I even held back my laughter for a few minutes and asked him (in as controlled a voice as I could ) what his last name was. His reply was : " Ummm, my name here is just Gobu, madam". Gobu is, as I found out over the last couple of days, a pretty nice person, if mentally negligible. It's funny how life is interspersed with these insanely funny moments amidst stressful situations. I am still fighting for a resolution to my problem but my life is better for having Gobu in it. Alright, it is way too late and tomorrow if way too busy f...

I signed up for the Bay State half marathon this morning (58 days to go) I've been thinking of this since I randomly ended up running around 12.5 miles a couple of weekends ago and today I went ahead and registered. Now that I'd done it, I figured I should train. I haven't really been running lately except for a 4 miler, 6 miler and 12.5 miler on three consecutive weeks. And that was 2 weeks ago. I know - not really a consistent schedule. So I went out today and ran 6.34 miles at a pace of 8:21/mile. I pushed myself a good bit and was pretty happy with it overall except that now I think I have a blister coming up - serves me right for running without socks. Yeah, that's right - I figured making the blog boring isn't enough so I turned to my other skill, making it gross. In other news, I love my downstairs neighbors. I usually end up dancing at least for 20 minutes every day. Either practice or just jumping around to some happy music. And they never complain. Even wh...

So I remembered that I had this blog. And that I hadn't written in the longest while. There are two reasons for this - a. Nothing interesting happens b. Anything interesting that happens - I am not comfortable blogging about it. That pretty much limits my blogging opportunities. Nonetheless, I have decided to start blogging again. And do it very often. Bash on Regardless is my motto. Which implies that I've now entered the competition for the World's Most Boring Blog. Given my life style and surroundings, I practically have this title in the bag but just to prove it to the world, I shall heretofore capture my daily life in painstaking detail. One example of this - the word 'blog' appears in this blog in some form or the other 7 times in this blog. Wait, make that 8 now. Good night and God Bless. And just for fun, I've decided to label my posts with any word that catches my fancy at the time of blogging (Dab it! it's 9 now)
