Unlike yesterday, today took off to a good start. Its farewell to cold weather of past 2 days.

Happy about - The small gesture by Chinese uncle - Bill Tung made
me feel this world has loads of genuinely good people. If you are wondering what he did - he got me 3 newspapers and milk!

Thinking about - Pensive mood today. When my leave for 2 months got sanctioned, i was very elated. Thought this the most wonderful break i would ever get - out on a VACATION to an international destination. I have been sitting in this hotel room with books, laptop and tv for company.7 days - no bugs to fix, no enhancements to deliver and no one to report to. It feels strange and it hasn't sunk in that am out of World Book. No work to do, me not very happy :(
If i feel this way after working for 4 years and can't stand a 7 day break, i wonder how people feel when they retire at 56 with nothing to do.


Cheer up me! think of the wonderful things happening now - like catching up with old friends whom i haven't spoken to in 2 years. Crashing in and
out of bed when i feel like. It may sound funny but i never knew how to read a comic when i was young...i couldn't figure out if the boxes were to be traversed horizontally/vertically. Now am enjoying reading them :)

Today's Timepass: Bunch of local newspapers ranging from Boston Today to Wall Street Journal filled with Easter ads."Peanuts" contd....
