http://www.auntminnie.com/ - somebody was mentioning (a colleague - i suppose) about auntminnie today (i was stumped kinda when i got him spell the name for me) - first glance tells me this is a treasure trove of info.
Yet to dive deeper!

Another weekend zoomed past…
And i thought it was going to be difficult to kill time this weekend. and i proved to be wrong, thankfully!
#1. Working on my visual studio addin and reading – (simple..nothing hifi) helped on friday. And picking up dad from the railway station + some other small chores
#2. Saturday - dad’s birthday! & Sunday in puttaparthi – a long bus journey (~5 hrs) after many months – and read through 3/4th of the first book of harry potter :) YES! me’s reading harry potter just now! Had nice dharshan @ parthi, met a kind lady who’s been a long time swami’s devotee & resident (thanks to dad) & got myself a swamy’s diary for 2010!
#3. Monday – back on to my comp. – with the addin & summarizing through the design school teachings & learnings, while working to complete the addin. By mid-day dad had developed a fever and took him to doc., by evening. He’s on medication, still running a temp. of 100-102. Late evening had the apartment owners’ meeting – and lo! this time, was better in control – not losing my temper / reacting much – in spite of the the usual provocations. And i’ve decided to hand over the maintenance responsibility to others. :)
But, too much of thoughts during the weekend, and felt more lonelier than ever (now too) (sathya & kiddo are at erode), the acute need for focus in priorities & a goal for self (thanks to other factors triggering these thoughts).
But anyways, as usual – getting over and finding things to keep me motivated! :) I Wish, really wish, i had/have friends close to heart! Hope this wish atleast comes true! :)

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.

Negative waves…
Ask me how negative thoughts, a procrastinator and the “i’ve done my part” folks & ppl. who want to employ all their smartness in not taking ownership/responsibility but finding faults with others, even when we have a delivery the next day - can kill the waves of positive energy in and around them! Sigh!
But, am making progress here – certainly!
I Haven’t lost my temper, didn’t blow up and what more – was not even expressive of my feelings in the face (you’d know how much of a change it is – if you happen to know me personally :) )
But in spite of all this nonsensical (good) things, making me a balanced individual, I feel my passion has been dampened a lot.
No, by god’s grace, i haven’t let this affect me but only as a fuel for the fire to be on my toes and retain the best of the old ‘me’.
An energetic day…
A Wonderful day today … Very energetic start…
On an energetic day (such as today :)) – all the productive thoughts flood up – ideas, to-do's, best practices, wishes et. al, – all in one go! Way toooo many context switches i say!
I find it difficult in a way to handle such intense brain waves as they are very positive and i tend to lose them before capturing them in any form (as the successive waves come flowing in a torrent), so i can act upon them and track to completion.
How i wish to learn to master & control these thoughts, @ the speed of thought! :) :) :)
