Memoirs of 12Th March 2008 Starting 7 15 AM
7 15 AM I got a call in my office phone, waking me up for a problem at one of the customers office. I had to switch on my laptop which takes more time to start up, than waking some one from sleep and making him answer something. By the time I could finish up the problem it was 8 AM. Usually I wake up at around 8 50 AM and start to office. Was thinking hard whether to sleep for another 45 minutes, at the same time, I was checking mails at gmail/rediff/official mails/ Damn it. No mails. I have almost subscribed to much of stuff at gmail so that I get triggers on almost every activity on net that I am browsing. orkut/blogs etc etc. No mails. No one has scrapped me. no one has commented on my blog. no forwarded mails. Usually every morning I am always greeted close to 25 mails. Was thinking what happened today, just 5 mails :( . My battery in my laptop started alarming and the system went onto standby. Was too lazy to take the wire, plug in and start using again. so went to hit the bed back.
8 45 AM, my friend woke me up
10 00 AM - In the cab going to office
10 30 AM - Only 1 ticket was in the queue to be worked and 4 people were working hard to pull that single ticket into their queue. I got it :D

12 AM - A colleague from Technical Team came and he gave me another battery. For that I have to shutdown my machine. Replace the battery. I know this take 30 minutes.
12 30 AM - New Battery. Old Laptop. one of ET Article said "Keep your mind focused outwards off the negative introspection. Know the importance of bringing in a bit of pleasure and challenge back into your life.” The Gita gives exactly same advice: balance right amount of work, play, and fun with the proper amount of dream and thought (yukta swapnavbodhasya) to banish pain."
12 30 - 1 PM - I had one bank issue going on for a long time. It got resolved today. confusion over the past 2 months. Mistake actually ended up at my end. CHA. I would have spent so much of my calling time and my friend's calling the bank people.its all a waste now.

4 17 : Radio shuffled songs between Billa, God Father and Kallori. Started playing a medium level in Sudoku. Chat with Sri continued. All of a sudden in the same minute 6 ticket popped up. That pretty much summarises the past hour. Decided to eat that apple and orange. Went to Place. Wonder what Vivek'sMukund had been doing at home. We had three new movies getting delivered today. Walk the Line, Good Fellas and The Following.
4 30 - Stopped listening to songs since my ears started paining and work got busy as well. I hate working towards end of day.
5 00 - Everybody has left the office. Only Vivek and Me. I was ready to leave, as I was thinking that, Vivek said Lets leave. I called Larry, the cab Friend of mine and he said he will be there in 15 minutes.
5 15 - He was there sharp on time pretty much earlier that day. He owned a coffee shop. Vivek suggested tat why don't we step in at the coffee shop of his and have the famous Caramel in his shop. Larry was more than happy to make that for us. 5 30 - We were home. Vivek suggested we shall see The Following. It's just a 70 minutes. I was more than happy to see that film since it his Christopher Nolan. Mukund was watching Good Fellas and simultaneously playing the game Poker online. 6 00 - We started watching the film THE FOLLOWING.
7 15 - The End of the film. Typical Christopher Nolan Film. 3 Different Stories going parallelly. Last 10 minutes of the movies was good. all pieces fell together. but nothing could beat his movies Memento and Prestige. I thought those were exceptionallybrilliant.
7 29 - I am in the rest room typing this. Once done, I will be leaving to the Gym. Oh NO. I pod is out of charge. I hate going to the gym without that. Still I decided I shall step into it coz its been three days.
8 28 - Back from Gym. Surprisingly I pod did have some power left and more surprise. the Tread mil in the gym which wasn't working for More than a week has been rectified. Nothing Like Running while hearing to songs. Mukunth was still playing poker and vivek sleeping.
