essence de vie

I got out of bed, late as is customary of me. However I was determined to reach office in time. So in this struggle between time and me, I by some means managed to get geared up in 15 mins and hurried out to literally take hold of an auto which is the only means of communication at such a significant point in time. Hey but what is this? "NO AUTOS". The otherwise jam-packed streets look serene and peaceful. No zooming autos trying to win the race with time. I was dumb struck for a second but determined that I have to reach office in time, decided to take matters in hand. I walked for 15 mins (that’s a long walk for a person who is nearing 80 kilos) and somehow managed to catch a glimpse of a lone auto in the road. Competiting against 10 others who were trying to grab the attention of the auto driver, I managed to hurtle myself inside the auto before anyone else could (thanks to my athletic endeavors in college!!!!). I requested the auto driver to take me to my destination whic...

It has been a while that I scribbled a little to please the potential writer in me....Well for people who know me or think they know me I can envisage the response....

I (grumbling!) and Deepali somehow managed to reach our old location where the rest of the team was located. However guess what? The meeting had to be cancelled due to certain technical reasons better left unexplained... Hence, both of us were left with no other alternative but to retu...

Hello there! ! Today is really a long and strenuous day. I have been sitting in office since morning staring at the green monitor lost in endless reflection. Thought I should scrawl something just to placate the deep sense of monotony which is gleefully eating me away. People say "An idle brain is the devil's workshop". How factual our elders were!!!!! The devil goaded me to just tell Raj to buzz off.Oh God I won't be able to express the deep sense of satisfaction. Poor guy! He must have got the shock of his life. Although it looks like he has recovered fast as I could see two angry smileys pop up in my monitor. The same devil provoked me again to ping him back and irritate him to hell. At this moment he must be tearing his hair. I now turned my attention to Deepali who is happily writing a testimonial for me.This should have somehow pacified me but guess the roots of evil have implanted itself with vengeance. She finished her task awaiting my approval but all I gave ...
