Duh day

I’m extremely irritated at this point of time. I’ve sat in front of the computer the whole day and my eyes are watery and I’ve begun to get a mild headache that’s threatening to turn into a big one.

There was a bandh in the state today from 6 am to 6 pm, the first one in 10 years. As a result, I couldnt go out and do anything I wanted to. Not that I roam around like anything and keep doing things on a regular basis. But the idea of being confined to one space and not having the option to take off as I wanted to was a major reality check for me.

We take the notion of freedom of movement very lightly now that its been about 60 years of independence? Yet, when life comes to a standstill and you dont get to do the normal things that you take for granted, its a shock, nonetheless. 

To top it all, I deleted the previous post. Arrghh. I dont think I am in a fine mental state to type it all over again. My back hurts from sitting here all day and my moods worsens.

And I dont even want to go towards my state of writer’s block. Its been plaguing me for some time and I think I’m running short of things to write about in this blog. Brain function decreasing and oxygen suppy diminishes.

I… cant… see…

    Hahaha… hello Saran. Banging on panwala’s door?? Do they actually live inside the 3ft by 4ft space no wait, 5ft by 6 ft space? :P

    First bandh in 10 years???
    Sikkim is heaven.

    I went out driving my bike once during bandh in Kerala (It’s called a hartal, since bandh is banned. These guys sure know how to find loopholes). A few protesters stopped me. I gave this really furious look and asked them to piss off. I didn’t stop there, gave a 15 minute lecture on how they are just some frustrated people who are not sure what their ideal is. They let me go, probably because they were fed up with my chatter.

    You did??? Hahaha… my word, how brave is that! I didnt budge from the chair in front of the comp the entire day. I dont like bandhs much myself. Too many bandhs in Calcutta with me stuck in railway platform - not a good memory.

    That was not bravery. Just the confidence that the only thing that people can’t stand is my blah-blah. :P
