The questions about life, the universe and everything kind of pales in comparison to the more pressing questions of life..like what is the importance of Thursday in the grand scheme of things?
I ask myself this question every Thursday, more so since I have started working.. I mean, you know what, Thursday isn't like Mon- Wed when work is all there is to think about.. its not Friday when the weekend is all there to think about.. Thursday..mm... you don't feel like working too much because the weekend is nearing and you feel guilty for feeling so because there is one whole day left to the weekend..so, what is the purpose of Thursday????
Today was just another Thursday spent at the office...workload is not so much this week..last week was crazy. So I'm taking my time this week to laze around, read up on some articles that were long pending..generally willing Saturday to come so I can sleep for 12 hours straight.
Heard some good music on my way back home.. for those of you in Mumbai, you would know there is a new FM channel on 104.8 and its called 'MEOW'..as in the sound a cat makes.. and they have such a lame songline for the station..it goes like "thodi meethi, thody catty..104.8".. oh my god..!!
I was thinking today that I will call them up one of these days to tell them the song sucks.. I mean what kind of characterization is Meow?..and its supposed to be the first Only For Women radio channel!!! Does anyone care about having a radio station just for women????.. their saving grace is that the music is good..at least at the time that I go back home, there is some predictable yet comfortable english music being played.
Heard some Eric Clapton, U2, Eagles, Def Leppard on my way back today. All songs I know the lyrics of so I could sing along to my heart's content.
I left office early today because of the aforementioned Thursday blues..had to go visit my teammate who injured her back today and so couldn't come to office. Took away some of her mental bandwidth by chattering randomly. I had planned to come home early and watch Star Wars -- hadn't decided which one but definitely the Luke Skywalker franchise.. somehow the Anakin Skywalker part just doesn't hold my interest. Was planning on either catching up on Empire Strikes Back or Return of the Jedi. I just love the dialogue in which Darth Vader tells Luke - "Luke, I am your father".. In the episode of Simpsons called The Forrest Gump episode, the police arrests Springfield residents who copy film characters. In that, the black city doctor is dressed up as Darth Vader and says the same dialogue and laughs in his characteristic way.. If you watch the Simpsons, you'd know what I'm talking about.
Anyway, this post is a follow-up on my earlier resolve to blog regularly.. so even though no life changing matter is on my head currently, I will still write.. Asked a friend for his new blog's URL which I had misplaced, only to go and find that he's been as lazy as I me or he's been as busy as me and hasn't updated the blog..
Ah well, maybe the purpose of Thursday is for lazy people like me to spend some time doing other things in life and nothing more grander than that..I think I can settle with that..
