Hi all,

I am feeling really empty...sick and empty. I lost someone very close in the blasts. And it's just hard to write anymore. Perhaps I will get over it sooner...it's just that I think I have written enough for this year.

I was going to ask you to reconsider too.
My condolences about your loss. A friend of mine was seriously injured in one of the Delhi serial blasts recently, and I can only imagine your anguish.
Hope people understand the futility and utter foolishness of killing others.

Thanks for all the posts in 2008. I wish we could do something to ease the pain. Take care. We will await 2009.
Didnt know, I'm really very sorry to hear that. I cannot imagine the pain you're going through. Hugs. Keep in touch just to tell us how you are...if you can. Else, whenever you're back...take care of yourself.

My first reaction was: What new natak is this?

My second reaction was: Ah 2008. Smart. Almost got me there.

My third reaction was: Sigh. Your comment. I felt like a heel about reactions 1 & 2

My fourth reaction is: So sorry for your loss... come back soon, there are plenty of folks here who'll be waiting :)

My close friend's uncle was ATS chief Karkare. Life extinguishes in a snap. It's better not to spend time in remorse. Won't advise anything but do what you are good at irrespective of what happens.

First Impressions: How to Get Away with Murder (Netflix)

 I love courtroom dramas.  I love non-linear storytelling. I love thrillers. I love tender love stories that embellish such series of grit, grime, and blood. This series delivers on all counts, dips somewhat after a couple of seasons, gets uneven and predictable (when it is less courtroom and more drama) and then finishes strong. The series centers around Annalise Keating who is a fierce, black criminal lawyer who also teaches a class in criminal law (which she calls 'How to Get Away with Murder'). As a teaching methodology, she gets her class to weigh in on her live cases. Part of her strategy also involves picking a handful of promising students and have them work in her 'lab' where they get to help her in strenuous arguments and civil suits, etc. The plot thickens, a murder happens, people get involved, incriminated, incarcerated, and dead. I found a couple of characters in this cast to be really unlikeable - Michaela, Laurel, and Bonnie. After the first couple of se

That kind of a day, that kind of a thought

 It was Eid and Ekadashi today. Thus far, I have managed to keep the fast for Ekadashi. But we still have 2 hours to go so...let's see. I had this urge to go to a temple. There is a small one near my house. Today it was filled with people singing keertans. So I went to the  Iskcon. I like the temple. It's so big and bustling. It's organised and musical.  But today was very crowded. Usually I go to temples and do a quick pranaam without offering flowers or fruits. But I felt like buying a thali. I got one with some fruits, tulsi leaves and a single marigold flower that lay there like a fully energized petaled sun. There was a long queue and I was already feeling stressed in the pit of my stomach. But the line kept moving and just like that, I had my darshan and I got done.  I came out and thought of getting a flower for the pooja room in my home. I bought a lotus. The florist fluffed out the petals and it looked like a sweet little bird.  I caught an auto back and as is my n

A very bad mood

 I have been trying to sleep for a while but have not been able to. I am in a very bad mood. Turns out I am very averse to change. Things are crap.  Deep breaths are not helping. I am feeling very trapped. The anger and irritation is quite intense. Let me take a few moments to just quietly watch myself.  Works
