Back to Blogging!

It stares you in your face that you’ve been away from a dear hobby way too long.. when you realize you’ve forgotten the password to your wordpress account.

Wifey insists that I should write a blog.. I’ve not done that in ages.. and it just seems like a good hobby to get back to.. though I’m usually out of ideas or topics.. inspiration as they say.. as to what to write about..

The key challenge is the discipline it takes to keep the blog updated every week if not more often than that..

Am about to complete a year of working at MMI – in my first ‘job’ per se.. and well, I could also step back and take stock of my situation..

And well, I’m about to complete 2 years of being married – so can think aloud about how things have changed, tease that it’s for the worse…. and so on..

Or maybe I could attempt at answering the existential questions anyone my age may grapple with ( or so I hope). When you’re not entirely delighted with the way your life’s slipping by like a current through your fingers.. and you don’t know whether to accept this as normal.. or to worry that there’s something wrong..

If there’s something wrong.. it again takes stepping out of the comfort zone and taking a hard look at how you’ve become complacent or if you’re still holding on to that curiosity in your eyes.. the soaring spirits of a guy just out of college..

Is this what life’s supposed to be?

I don’t know if I’m going to blog a lot or not.. getting back to writing a diary does seem like a good way to show myself a mirror every once in a while.. and well, it does keep my verbal abilities from rusting away!

The stats say that no one’s visited this blog in ages.. like I didn’t know.. but well.. for those who’ve ever read me before – happy to have your view on what we can talk about!

Obviously.. I’m on the stage and you’re my audience.. I’ll not claim that I write for myself… wonder if anyone REALLY does that… or maybe they do.. and I just haven’t evolved to reach there yet!

Funny, how confused do I sound and I always thought of myself as capable of making worthwhile decisions fast.

i thought this would be a brief post so using the ‘quickpress’.. only to realize now that i’ve just been blabbering away!

Hello friends.. for all those to whom I’ve wanted to be in touch.. but never got around to writing a long mail to.. I’m back!

Wait – this is supposed to be a blog and not my personal long mail to buddies or sparks from the past!

And I don’t want to make this into a series of facebook statuses representing my current mood.. ‘ college life – I miss you’ !

Talking of Facebook – that does seem like an awesome idea to bash people who make half the world jealous by posting their frequent travel pictures leaving us lesser mortals confused about whether to attempt a Bali or a Times Square or a Eiffel Tower this week – and after tons of back and forth convincing wifey.. settling for an Andaman that can be covered under LTA!

On that – I wanted to put my caller tune as ‘mehengai dayan khaaye jaat hai’ – not that many people call me apart from work – but whoever does – the international partners won’t get it.. the desi partners might laugh it off or find it a bit downmarket.. some other well wishers will see my political leanings and intent to bash the government.. my mom.. would think it’ll indicate to the world that I’m not earning enough..and wifey.. who calls me often.. would think I’m trying to tell her something against her shopping sprees!

Ok. I’m fine without a callertune!

And they say life’s easy. And I’m independent. Who am I kidding!

perhaps I should’ve warned when I started that I’m going to blabber away.. but well if you have come this far.. might as well leave a note! I’ll send you chocs if you do.

I certainly would get an awesome ego massage to see the stats on this blog grow. and that might just motivate me to treat myself a massage at 90% off from Snapdeal!

Friends.. well wishers.. aren’t you supposed to wish me well? Now comment!
