Rapunzel

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 for me to continue this self involved, narcissistic process of blogging. On to sleep and better things.

Metronome

I'm chasing after you in the gathering dusk, you're racing far ahead, fading into the sunset. Can't catch up to you, can't hold on to you, always looking back, wondering when I first lost you. And this sand in the hour glass, it's rushing fast. This river of continuum, it gushes past. The clock unwinds, the moon tugs the tides, while I'm caught in between what was and will be. So I'm letting go, I'm tired of the chase I'll find some peace in this moment's embrace. Just take my hand in yours, let's run to the daybreak and burst into this life, finally awake. Finis

It's been a good set of days. The week itself was fun, what with hanging out with folks on Wed - and before I forget, here's a shout out to "S" and "Y" for reading/pretending to read by blog and requesting to star in it ;-) - and watching "Up" the next day with the usual gang (awesome movie!). P was flying in on Friday and a few hours before his departure from O, it was decided that we would attempt to hike up Mt.Washington. As usual it was a slightly imbalanced plan. Late Friday night, I set out to pick him up from the hour-away airport. Somehow this turned into a road trip for 3 of my concerned friends. Suffice to say that there were bad jokes a plenty and some rather interesting conversation. Randomness abounds in my life. Anyways, it was around 2 am by the time we crashed and I actually managed to be up by 6.30 am the next morning. By 8.30 we were showered, breakfasted and packed and P was armed with enough stuff to survive a hurricane and live

Today I rediscovered one of my first loves. The joy of writing. Of actually writing with pen and paper. Felt great to just sit down and write - the pen moving at a steady pace as blue lines of letters filled up the blank pages and thoughts flowed out of my mind and onto the paper. Here is the result. Everything has lead me to you. All the moments in my life - happy, sad, purposeful and random. All the choices that I made and the ones that were thrust upon me. All the people I met and the ones that I missed. All my friends and all my acquaintances. Everything that mattered and everything that didn't. Like the time I forgot my keys and went back up the elevator to my place and met T for the first time. All the conversations that I overheard and the calls that got dropped. The movies and stories. The songs that I love and even the bad ones that I couldn't help but hum 'cause they got stuck in my head. All the books that I read and all the places that I lived. All the jobs that
