I am having one of those days also. I got up with the same question in mind.

" wretched blackberry"... :D well long long ago in one of your blogs you had mentioned that its absolutely impossible to wake R when he is sleeping but the subtle tring of the balckberry wwakes him up in an instant...

" your wife and children should ideally excite you more than numbers"..... well R has evolved very very fast... after a time in man's life the wife and child starts becoming just numbers as well... :P :P

@JP: Sir, thanks for those words. I'll respond to your query on a separate note!

Hey... men are like that... my husband can be on the golf course all day... and not worry about whats happening outside the club!!! At home.. he often sits with Sudoko... and goodness.. thats annoying.. Three women (me & our 2 girls).. cant keep his attention any more!!

*ha ha*

And you'd be dead bored of a Wordsworth type... trust me!!! You could only have that for a while.. not forever!!!

Hey.. what are you complaining about... you've got lovely winter coming up... Plus you have summer months as well...

Here in Dubai... all I get is sunshine!!

Sudoku and numbers can make men do weird things!

And when the sydney clouds threaten you, threaten them back, tell them you will send them to the sweltering heat of gurgaon, with power outages every 5 mins and houses which turn into furnaces :)

My dear KG,

I spent three years in Leeds, England, and survived as a husband "accompanying wife", while Kalpana was doing a PhD.

The way or trick to resist the blues or greys is not Wordsworth, though I love the poet too.

It is something mundane like having a make-believe timetable to stick to, during the day "as if you were working somewhere".

Once you get into your own self-created world of work, you'll be shocked how the depression, accompanying the blues or greys, vanishes.

How's the story-writing coming along? If not, a memoir?

And, "Yes!", all kinds of soup help.

Warm regards,
- Joe.

tried chocolate, and now have a cup of milk in the microwave, getting ready for hot chocolate. the mood, is clearing, like the wretched Sydney clouds..but the overcast scene seems like it will linger about a while.

By the way...I think it is the pumpkin soup! Why don't you try some chocolate instead? And listen to a nursery rhyme? (steal one from Meeshu's collection). Let me know if that works...or I will need to recommend a stronger dose.

Ha Ha Ha! I mean...am not laughing at you or your ...

Ha Ha Ha! I mean...am not laughing at you or your melancholy...just the thought that R deliberately misses the stops! And yes, if you happen to meet a Wordsworth type, ask him if he has a brother (of a similar type), and ping me instantly!

As for your Friday blues...think of worse things, like Monday mornings or days without any phone calls/messages/comments/pings! You'll feel better. That's what I do...I shoo away depression by thinking of more depressing stuff!
