Well I'll be blown......
I have been missing from the scene for around 2 months now.....and no frantic calls.....no fan mail urging me to go on....:P.....I think you guys must have got my email id wrong....(forgive the denial , its part of my mental makeup)...no problemo.....all is wells......Its just that I have been vigorously thinking as to what new thing I can do to make my life more better and a tad more exciting.
So what useless thing do i harp on today.....let me see.....yes the titles a definite pointer........mediocrity.........
Websters dictionary says its the state or quality of being mediocre......Do they even know how it is to be one among a crowd......Obviously webster wouldnt know....those guys being in the dictionary business....I mean how cool is that ....some aunty from your mothers side asks"what are you doing nowadays?"....and it wil be so nice to say "lexicographer"a.k.a dictionary writer.......hhowzzzat!!!....Imagine the stumped look on the aunties face when she obviously was thinking you would say s/w engineer and had lined up the awkward question of onsite oppurtunities and salaries....:P
Well enough ofwebster and his minions....lets talk bout my stint with mediocrity......around two weeks ago I got my glasses made .......and the doc really impressed me as a guy with great opthal skills.
One look at my eyes and he said I was a medical anomaly as one of my eyes had a -ve 1 and the other was a bit optimistic and had a slight positive point...:P
Apparently since both the eyes are exercised for visual pleasure ......it was weird that only one eye had taken the hit.......Imagine my excitement......the world appeared differnt now.......here I was the man with the "mononego" defect.........He suggested glassess and tried to soak me for a couple of thousands.......but fortunately I have friends in the medical field.....who got the visual aids done cheaply.....
Now this friendship comes at a cost......who was the idiot who said that the people who tell you the truth are your true friends......friends are those who lie through their teeth to you so that you dont feel bad ....well my medico friends are truly wonderful....they tracked downn a opthalmologist and actually verified that my condition was pretty normal and actually it was not the exception but the rule.......felt really nice....somebody is definitely not going to get a friendship card on friendship day .....:P...
There is only one way out of this......Do all the stupid things that you can think of ...because people think by not having fun and leading a normal life they are being logical and wise......but what the heck....we only live once and imagine your embarassment when your only grandchild asks if you had an affair and you come up with a lame comeback like "in our days things were different".......down with medioctrity and logical living......I know the pain of living a normal life...with no chicks,drugs and booze.....I mean what fun is that :P........I guess it really helps if you are the arranged marriage material ...where background checks are done on a level that even FBI would not conceive of......
the choice is yours.........would you like to have your name on a newspaper for wild partying or just pick up the paper , admonish others for having fun...and secretly wish that you missed out on them....:P
If you got rellay misguided by my weird quirky sense of logic and did attempt any stunt...please do let me know...its always a pleasure to be in contact with people whose lives I have screwed over ...:P
Cheers!!!
