For posterity
Like every other thinking being, many thoughts zoom past my head, some I hold for long enough to share with another being/thing.. When I was in high school, it used to be a daily diary - my kitchen-sink of thoughts, then in college and thereafter it was a friend on my bandwidth, now that my lifestyle involves lot more travel I think of getting back to the journal mode again, to record the zooming thoughts for posterity, to read them years later and feel great for having/not having become wiser :)
Now it is the spring-winter in Chicago - bang before the new year but all the snow has melted.. I am just back from a 2-day skiing session on the Cascade mountains in Wisconsin and enjoying my 10 day annual vacation lazing at home, driving down to the local library and getting loads of movies and books, playing my keyboard, watching Venkie tune his guitar ad infinitum, cooking together (since our work involves travelling, we don't get to cook as much as we'd like to), and eating home-cooked meal - thrice a day!
Okay, let me figure out how I can set rest of my blogspot up!
