Killing,Gross n Painful Life

Actually, not all that bad.
But almost.
Bleak times down here. Place becoming more and more desolate by the day. To think that in 15 days time, the ruckus will begin again.
Kept drizzling throughout yesterday.
Power cut since morning today. Couldn't get my work done at the bank. Came and sat in the AC in the lab but power cut prevented the servers from working. Then got locked inside the lab by some #*$%#. Had to scream to get out.
Got so bored, went to play in the afti. Played, just racquet, wall, ball and me, till i was dead tired. Could almost feel the muscles creaking back to life. Felt good. Came back and slept like a log till 8.
Found a frog in my room. Was reminded of Haripada, the clerk, in Tagore's Flute Music, who had a non-rent-paying-lizard in his room. Got half a dozen in mine-saw them multiply through the year. And now, dear froggy. Hope its the last of the self-decided inhabitants of my room.
In the lab again now, struggling as usual. And rooting for England, who are finally making a match of the final.
Was damn sorry to see Sharapova lose. First person since Steffi with ability, beauty and dignity.
Saw something about Federer in another blog.
C asked me sometime back if i was jealous of S. Not sure if i convinced her that I am not. But I am not.
As of now, just jealous of Federer-not fair that some people should have it all:a girlfriend like that and a backhand like that.

    what happened to those alligator sized lizards?? they're having a free run in my room i'm sure.

    if you have a backhand like Federer... you'll have a girlfriend like that too! but i gotta say Williams kicked some ass today, was rooting for Davenport tho.

    @herenow:did read abt federer on ur blog, but that was not the one, since this blog was written before the wimbledon final: check date-july 2nd.
    oh well since we bitch abt kgp ourselves, guess its only fair that others should. But, like i said in the blog "not all that bad."
