Bandh Day...cleaning day

Yea, so it's been a Bandh Day throughout K'taka protesting against the Cauvery Tribunal's decision abt water sharing amongst a few regions -- K'taka and TN being the major stakeholders. Life's actually been pretty peaceful...it's good for a change - freedom from the daily din of vendors, vehicles and TV channels. The roads looked wiped clean, and the kids had a roaring time playing on the roads for most part of the day.

I decided to make use of this time to clean up some long pending stuff..and boy, was I in for a surprise! Also some good memories, old albums and books..fun stuff to keep you interested thru the cleaning...keeps you wondering what you might find next. Never realised how many redundant stuff got piled on until I decided to do away with them...feel so light already :-)

fitness anyone?

Been lately thinking of newer [read interesting ;-) ] ways to involve d/h into a fitness regime. Lemme see what I can list down:
1. Make a good health drink after the morning run -- he usually likes trying new and "healthy" stuff.
2. Buy him a new pair of running shoes..the one he has at present is probably his biggest reason not to run!!
3. Hit his fav salad bar for every successful week of running.

Well that's already a good enough list to begin with! If this works, I'm going to continue building tiny lists to keep his enthusiasm going (I'm hoping he finds the run good enough to keep him going..geez)

Discovery!

It's been a pretty good week overall -- workwise, and otherwise. Jai seems pretty chilled at office until his next boss takes over, so was sweet enough to drive me back and forth from my office for a whole 2 days. That's being really generous considering Bangalore traffic, especially at peak hours - working days. That gave us some quality time to chat about things that had kind of cooled off somewhere amidst our busy schedules. Never knew a ride through Bangalore traffic would be so fruitful!

So next time I want to discuss something important, I know what to do -- hit the road at peak hr! :-]

my first blog

I haven't really been writing up my timelines in a diary, but have always wanted to. Also been writing a lot through my school and college (albeit poems, write-ups, speeches etc.), but never really shared most of it, except for a few friends maybe. And... I have never really been a regular "writer" so, I'm hoping this will bring in some regularity in penning down my thoughts...let's see how it goes ;-). My words are going to be immortalised in virtualspace..wow!
