Crash...Boom...Bang...Kaput.. :(

She was the most important piece I have ever owned..Always by my side...Always...even when i didnt feel like talking to her...And on a friday nite...it had to happen...the "break"-up...

I was supposed to have dinner with Abodh and Abhishek to discuss how we could negotiate some funding,from a prominent biz house in mumbai,for WSD...For some reason the meeting was cancelled...and I was stuck in office till 11:30 PM..rather unusual going by my workload in the recent past actually...

I am finally through with work and at the lift shouting at my teammates to make it quick..lest we miss the lift...we are on the 13th floor...and it will take aeons for the lift to get back if we miss it....

I just leaned to push the stop button..and she slipped and fell..in the space between the chute and the floor...13 floors...first the "sweeesssh" as she screamed thru the air..then the eternity of silence...and then....a dull thud..the clatter of body parts as they flew in all directions...eerie silence...i realised with horror what had happened...I was numb....what ? so fast...sudden..I didnt even realise it...survival ?? no chance...but...I was hopeful...considering she was supposedly the sturdiest in the business...but no...alas...she was all over the place...

I spoke to the lift attendant and had the lift opened...collected her...the fall and the resulting smash against the cold concrete floor had been brutal...and I couldnt help but think..

"HOW THE HELL AM I GOING TO SURVIVE THE NEXT 'N' DAYS WITHOUT A CELLPHONE !!! "

:-/

(I am caught between just shrugging it off and having a good laugh and wondering how I am going to manage without an essentiality in today's world...)

PS : I will remain incommunicado via mobile phone to all...for some time( i might get a phone to continue with my work..but then i dont want them to know that i msg Maa TV for porn jokes....in telegu !!! :)..so...until i buy a new one...which mite be in chennai..since i have to tie up a few loose ends here before i leave... and ...i'll need all the money i can save until i have settled in...
Until then..I can be reached at my roomie's number..people who need to know,know what the number is...or on email..yahoo preferably...again,those who need to know,know...

PPS : Sorry da pittu..i will be missing out on those cheesy forwards...God listened to my prayers finally but...not the way i wanted Him to...:-)

Stimulo-deprivation..

Received an email today from an arbit person(the id said pinkavenger.at.gmail.dot.com-avenger...and pink?? never mind..)...

Saying i have lost my "style" in terms of blogging("pink"avenger certainly quaiflies for ingenuity and style...without doubt:-)...as in..I was writing about mundane stuff and not the "stuff" i used to write about before..

First up,my reaction was..."*unprintable word* *unprintable word**unprintable word**unprintable word*"..but then..i realised..he/she(it's getting confusing,we'll call it PA-after 'pink'avenger) had a point..although not put through in the queen's english..

PA supported it with facts...saying this and this and this were so much more interesting and my style..than..say...this...or my recent posts- A and B..

i wish i could reproduce the mail below...but then..no..i wont give you that satifaction,PA...

As for my response...

My only response is...I thrive on "stimulants"..they maybe ideas,experiences,opinions,observations..(or even external "stimulants":)...I guess i have been deprived of them recently...so...

and...

FYI..I am what I am...you are what you are..err...not...
So..peace brother/his sister...I am not getting into this argument..I have seen too many in the recent past on other blogs...

PS:This is kinda pricking me tho..what was the idea behind the nick- "pink"-avenger !please elucidate...I am more interested in the "pink" part of it..

PPS:Surd..thats the way to do it...and maybe not your way...Sometimes you have to say what you have to say in the language that the person understands...
