A Lizards tale...

It’s Monday morning, and I had a bad case of the blues. I started to office after all the whining and cribbing. It was a long drive indeed, the traffic mounting with every edge. On the way to office, I realized someone gazing at me; eyes wide open, spots on the skin, scaring me to death. Lizard - a deadly creature with eyes shining bright, was waiting to attack the animate being driving the car.

Dumb struck, not knowing what to do, having no choice, I drove to office with the lizard beside. My every attempt to shoo the scarry creature away, ended up with the lizard getting an inch closer to me. To get rid of the tension and fear in me, I listened to the loud and hollering music from my stereo system. I tired my best to ignore the lizard and enjoy the music, it helped. What I failed to realize was that the music would bring to life the lizard that was so quiet, so long.

After few minutes of the music, I realized a diminutive movement in the car boot through the rear view mirror. I freaked, it was the lizard that was enjoying the music as much as I did, exploring its new world – MY CAR. Thoughts of having to drive everywhere with the lizard beside me, affrighted me. Imagine long drives, sober drives, happy-go-lucky day drives, all of them with the worlds annoying creature beside…Am cursing my stars.

Enough of those thoughts flooded my mind while I reached office and parked my car. I tried to locate the damn creature with a quick catch. Nothing worked; it seemed to enjoy the stay in my car. Having no one to help, I’m now here, writing a blog about the most pesky creature – the Lizard.

PS: The lizard is still lodging in my car.

All Work...

No books, no music, no television, no time for family or friends, nothing is all I have done in these four months of my so called no blogging life.

Well, no one to blame, just work, believe me hectic work. I was forced to stay in office till 10 or 11pm (Like I had a choice). Sometimes, I felt like a puppet dancing to the tunes of WORK.

As a matter of fact I realized my brain hollering, saying a big ‘NO’ before imperiling me. I had to hearten it up with all those sugar coated words I really did know of, and make it work for a few more hours. Finally, when it threatened to go on an indefinite shut down (oh my, that’s the term used on turbines), I rushed home, gulped whatever food was left and dropped dead (to sleep!!). Sometimes I did wonder how I went home driving (Did I really sleep while driving?? Not sure though).

Now, it looks like my brain can go on a vacation. Not much of work here. And finally there is time for my brain to slack and freshen up. Am smug about sending my brain (just my brain) to a SPA!!
