I am Pathologically Lazy!

These blogs are fun. Every time i take a long sabbatical and come back, i look at my previous posts and wonder how could i have been so lame to believe that i can actually do something with continued interest over a long period of time! I cant because of 2 reasons, first would be that i lose interest easily and lack any sort of will power to egg me on if i am not interested; and the second n more important one would be i am Pathologically Lazy.

So now the wonder is how is it that i seem to be writing this one? Well its mainly because one of my friends recently started blogging and i came out here to check his blog out. And while doing so i thought maybe i should post something as well. By the way, if this post by some mistake or chance is seen by someone else's eyes other than mine, you should follow my friends blog. He is a smart guy and is very incisive in his thinking and you would like reading his blogs if he becomes a regular. His blog's link is http://elitecynic.blogspot.com/

So what happened to me or things that interest me during this sabbatical of mine?

• Well for starters I went home for vacation for a couple of weeks. And i can proudly say i spent a lot of time with my family which is something i wasnt doing a lot even when i was staying with them. So i guess the old cliche of realizing the importance of things close only comes when it becomes hard for you to do that is true.
• I moved into a new apartment and now have no roommates. So thats something commendable and it deserves a pat on my back even if its my hands which is doing the patting. Why, because now i cant mask my loneliness! :-)
• This was also the period when i did some great work @ work (now thats a confusing sentence), did not get the recognition and lost interest in my Job.
• Arsenal had a pretty good season till this weekend where they ended a 3 match streak with such bad form that to imagine the optimism which i had of them winning the PL this season seems very distant and absurd!
• I traveled to a lot of places in US and did a lot of driving on the US interstates which has made me realize that i love driving and also that i would have more passion doing my work if i was a Driver rather than what i have now for this IT Stuff which i am doing.
• I did a lot of new things like para sailing, shooting, horse riding, bar hopping, dieting (yeah for the first time in my life even though i have been fat for a longgg time) etc..

The list above would go on but there are things which i dont wanna share in a place where even though its difficult but not impossible for other human beings to stumble upon. But in summary this was a great period in my personal life as i experienced a lot of new things and emotions and a shit period in my work life!

Anyways now i feel like i cant go on as i have lost interest in typing more things to be part of this blog. So farewells to myself, meet you next time here!

Saturday Morning

Since this is going to be my first blog (the previous one was just an excuse of a blog), what would be better than talking about the team i am obsessed with, Arsenal, along with a certain other things...

Like every weekend by friday night i am done with solitary but ritualistic visit to my favourite hangout in dallas... i am also done with the mask which i put during the week (although only in office), the one where i potray myself as a responsible and hard worker... i do all this with the hope that on Saturday mornings (sometimes Sunday) i will get to see the team i am crazy about, play... i wouldnt bore anyone with how this started or what kind of obsession it is but it is an obsession.... a monstrous one...

I stop caring a damn about the world and anyone in it except for Arsenal and its players... the story was no different this weekend too... i woke up on Saturday morning early even though i had slept only at 4 am to see the Chelsea match which was before Arsenal... Chelsea won pretty comfortably... I also read Liverpool and ManU won their matches... So i realized, now we are in a position where we have to win to stay on top... It was enough to make my Saturday morning nervy already...

But then i had trust in Arsenal and their potential... I was confident we would win... But what happens? They go ahead and lose... to a team which were recently promoted... There is the sucker punch.. to say i was pissed would be an understatement...

I shouted at my roomie... Dint pick up any of my friends call's some of whom were the damn ManU fans... Life looked like getting over... Thats the problem with obsessions... They give you great joy when things go right but rip out the life of you when things screw themselves....

Anyways after that i have no recollection of anything good happening to me... Even if they happened i am sure i would have been too pissed to notice..

Just watched 3 movies, all of which were Romantic comedies... See this is what happens to Single guys... they seem to hook onto sports as if its gonna replace the need for companionship....

Anyways, I am over the loss now.... but our next match is Tuesday and i am sure i would be back in my Euphoric or Suicidal state soon...
