Reapeat the same procedure everytime the alarm goes.

#6 30 AM
Enlightment dawns ....... "The bus is at 7 10 am!!!"

Cut to the chase ....

Realize i am going to be late , zip accross the loaclaity on my bike and reach the bus stop. Sheesh bus is late today!

#7 28 AM

# 7 30 AM
SMS friends on the way to office.As i look around, a colleague is playing 'Solitaire' on his laptop, another head banging to a old hindi track being played on the radio (mobile) (:O) , another eagerly 'reading' Page 3 in Times, one solving the SUDOKU, one narrating, how worse her Project Manager is to her friend through her mobile, ( I guess she should use her mobile to communicate to her friend, the whole bus seems to know about her PM now), a few with their Economic Times, two discussing how a 'technical' issue has to be resolved and majority of the 'workaholics' sleeping.

Why don't you enable the captcha stuff on the blog?

My day too was somewhat similar. All I've done all day long is talk gibberish in a manner no one could understand I was talking gibberish.

Jay said...

Yeah have done that,now!

Well yeah .. what a 'hectic' day it has been. It was 'demanding' in its own way!

Hey! your TAT for enabling the captcha is faster than that of Shikha's! Hmmm... I see a new law coming... I'll call it Aknowkneemoose's Law of TATs:

"The TAT of a blogger heeding another blogger's suggestion(s) is inversely proportional to the tasks assigned to him/her at work." :D

Of course, there are exceptions. (There's gotta be exceptions! Else all the physicists would denounce such a law! :D) I'm a major one. I was assigned some task. Hasn't made sense to me yet. So I choose to ignore it :D

How come anonymous comments aren't allowed? It's like you're striking a knife in the hearts of my brethren! ;)

Jay said...

Is it? Well, one should be faithful to the profession one is in. In my case ... blogging. So that explains the TAT. Shika learn from this!!!....(Mr Modesty is on leave today)


Yeah right. If U have a huge task at hand, follow what my 'mentor' has mentioned i.e. Break the task into really small components and look at each one of them and say, 'Do i really care'!! :D

Well .. shall do more justice to ur brethern next time round! ;)
