Its good to be Blogging again...

I'm back!! Almost 2 months have passed since I last sat down to write something in this blog. There have been quite a lot to write about, but somehow the intent didn't get converted into the action. But now that I'm here again, I intend to make up for the short sabbatical.

First of all, a very Happy Birthday to Mr. Sourav Ganguly. Call it co-incidence, but as it turns out I picked today to restart writing my blog, a lot like how he re-scripted the fortunes of the Indian cricket team. I am not comparing myself to him, I don't have the audacity (:-P). Just a reference to the co-incidence. A humble request Sir, please please please stop the producers from releasing your upcoming movie. I'm sorry to say, but it is rather shameful to watch you 'act' in such a movie. I'd much rather know you for your fighting spirit and winning mentality on the pitch than such low-grade publicity stunts. The Test match victory over Australia and the Natwest series final win over England, both with you as the captain, are the 2 best and most memorable cricket matches I have seen. Please do not let that image be spoiled by one misguided attempt at experimentation. Many many happy returns of the day Sir.

Coming to my life over the past couple months...well for one thing, it's certainly been different. First experiences of more than a single something. Phone calls have increased but the number of people at the other end has decreased. Well mostly the phone calls are being made to a particular number. Friends have become displaced, friendships have not. The change being is that face to face meetings have changed to ones involving a computer or a mobile. Work life is on in full swing, with not much 'Me' time left in the rest of the day. Bus rides to and from work are the best part of the day, with a 9 hour wait, often times longer, in the middle. A lot of work, with not much play, play time mostly being restricted to one involving a computer screen and a gamepad. Hope I don't become a dull boy!

This month sees the mother of all sporting events lined up to start - The Olympics, in London, England. This year itself has been a feast for all sports lovers. Even today is a very busy sporting day with the Wimbledon men's singles final as well the British Formula 1 Grand Prix lined up. Plus, the Tour de France is on. Roger Federer in the final of Wimbledon again, up against Andy Murray. The smart money is on Federer. My money is on Federer. I'm smart you see!!

Promise to keep writing more. A good Sunday lined up. Some plans made as well. Later...
