t-cons

T-Cons are such a waste of time. Like Srikanth said, you can keep describing the picture to the other person, but unless you're a brilliant talker and the other guy is an exceptionally good artist, you can end up describing a cat and drawing a fanged frisbee.

We've been waiting for months now, to understand some things. But no one understands...

Right now, my screen approximately resembles a fanged frisbee... God save us...

anti-histamines

I can smell ripe guavas as I type this. A smell that I always associate with lazy Sunday mornings spent watching mythological serials on DD.

Hmm, I broke a toenail in half as I banged into the bathroom door at work, I can't figure out what to do about it, khulla chodoon? ki band-aid lagaoon?

There's no real reason for calling the post by such a fancy name. It's just some sort of warning to the reader that I'm kind of high on anti allergy medicine.

Please excuse...

Orkut

So...

Been pretty active on orkut this last couple of months. Was a good thing. Made some friends, got some people to read my blog... :-) A place to get an ego boost....
by that, i mean the part where a pretty girl puts up a pic and gets a dozen or so random scraps asking to be 'friends'... poor souls, do they really understand that we mark them "haven't met" and never even bother to look back, let alone scrap? my pic changes in a couple of days and their purpose of adding me onto their friends list (beautification of their own profiles) is lost...

You know, sometimes, i wonder if life would have been simpler if my iq was a few points (ok, a lot of points, its way above average) less. perhaps i would be better equiped to understand the world...

Sleepyyy...

I noticed something about myself, or maybe it holds true for everyone, I get a little too honest when I'm really sleepy...

http://localhost:7001/webapp/ProgramVehicles.do?method=displayExhibitVehicles thats all I ever do these days. Write code for the front end of a web application. And keep testing it. I wonder, what is the whole point of being a developer anyway... Is this what I want to do? Write code for crazy people to come up with crazier incentives for completely insane customers? Work hard all day and not even be able to build my code because some fool checked in uncompiled code into the cvs?

I'm not sure...

It's a crazy crazy world of IT outsourcing. Fueled by change requests and people who work on weekends for the pizzas...

Life...
