Crash!



Me's in pain :(

It all happnd last nite..
Its one of those "All-day-meetings" day @ work.
Nothing concrete achieved at work. Nevertheless all des meetings happen!
There's dis TO-DO list in ma work book that jus keeps extending..into pages!

boo-hoooo

Hmph! I try to dig in a li'l..mayb finish few of dem..but aint in a mood. Still ders an important demo of a not-so-mind-blowing tool I have developed. That under-confident feeling sux ! :(

I pac at like 20:30 hrs.
Krithika, ma best pal, calls and we chat for sumtime and i make a quick retreat from office!
Only to know am at the wrong time..
(Why??? Why GOD? Why me all the time?)

-- What's irking me at this point --

If I take the flyover instead of the straight road, the flyover is jammed..bcoz sum fcuk vehicle breaks down and is getting towed.

If I take the straight road instead of flyover, then the road is jammed..bcoz 2-3 buses are huddled at a time and no place to slide past dem.

-- This is wot irks me --

So now I have stopped thinking. Dont hafta goddam plan to pick a road! Bcoz its the same result anyways..

Now whr was I?

Yeah. Anoder massive traffic jam! CM saab is entour to sum fcuk place..so blocked the entire goddamed road.

Meanwhile, insights into ma mind:

* Why is so and so javascript takin' such a long time to load..?
* Is it possible to apply for a long leave to Bangalore after June 15th?
* Who mus' b dat slut who hates me so much that he drained a can of brown paint all over ma bike?

Only negative thoughts..I dont like this!

*Sigh*

After half hour of lookin' & thinkin' & singin' & chewin' (Happy Dent) & starin' (at a Skoda)..block is cleared..

I accelerate..20..30..40..50..goin on 60 kmph..and

*thud! baam! boom!*

Sum screwball ran from nowhr..into the main traffic for godssakes!
To save this college kid I put all d pressure on ma brakes!

Result:
Ma bike reeled outta control! and crash!
It fell wid a heavy thud on ma left leg...right on ma toe!
Strangely I neither howled..nor barked at the guy who ran across!
2-3 guys helped me stand up on ma feet. And the college kid was almost about to cry! fcuk!

"Am sorry m'aam" was all he could muster..

I wasnt more appalled at the kid's mistake than at this very moment!
This very moment...Life was at a standstill

What could have happnd if there was sum heavy vehicle behind me when I fell?

Jus' moments before I was cribbing, complaining..and cursing..
Its a wonder how GOD strategically unfolds how life is vulnerable !!
And that it is in our hands (yes! in our goddamed hands nd nobody else's!) whether to appreciate life or not.
And he is in no way responsible for our dumb and useless negative thoughts..

I went bak home...with a swollen leg nd few scratches..still singin' heehee:)
Savouring the moment..

Karaoke - "Nuvvenaa" (Anand) , playin' on Radio City FM
(Still in a daze..Painkiller effect! So no comments..)
