Profligate

Well, hello there. I know, I haven't written in a while but neither have you so there. Anyways, what's new? Cobalt is here, that's what's new. Who/What is Cobalt? All 13.1 inches,2.9 lb and 1920x1080 pixels of spun metal gorgeousness.The generic name is ASUS Zenbook Prime. Did I need this beauty? Probably not direly. But is my life better and more beautiful for it? Yes. Oh, yes.

Anyhoo, the one good thing about this is that I now own a device on which I can type with most of my fingers and which will not make my lap go numb and burn holes in my comforter. => I might actually get back into blogging. Is that necessarily a good thing? For me, and the world at large? One will never know.
And while I am sharing thoughts, here is something I recently wrote

                                               Colors of the Day

Brown. Brown are my eyes that stare out the window,
Gray are the skies up above.
Blue is my mood,
and Black is the rain on the road.

 Green. Green are the leaves on the windswept trees,
Ochre are the ones that floated down.
Orange is the pale glow from the street light and
Gold are the droplets caught in it.

 Purple. Purple are the shadows hurrying in the dark,
Yellow are the doubts in my mind.
But Red is the dawn that hides over the horizon
and White is the hope it holds within.

                                                    ~ Finis ~

And so, after some thoughtful reading, to bed.

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

fractious

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...
