the 10k saga...

i decided that i would break my sunday solitude and go for the 10k practice. We started off quite ok, but after 10 minutes, my stomach started paining. i thought maybe my heart had been displaced from its place and was maybe resting on my intestines or something! So we decided we would walk. And we did. It took us about 1 hr 45 minutes. At least, now we know we can complete the whole course even if we are the last to complete it. What relief!!

i decided i would like to practise driving and so i spent about 30 minutes driving round and round the parking lot. Was awfully delighted to get the speed over 20!! i think i would be a rash driver - the kind who would plow over people. Which explains why i want to drive trucks - the bigger the better! From where did i get all these sadistic traits? Must be some gene from a long forgotten black sheep of an ancestor that decided to pop up its head in me!

So true, so true. i still have so much more love in me left, i think..

i did a survey among my colleagues (which is one of my fave pastimes in office) how long they would like to live - my colleagues have gotten used to my crazy ways. And the answer was around 60-70. i think we are a generation wary of all the things old age is gonna bring with it - arthritis, heart problems, memory loss etc etc..i think i want to live upto 60. Till i still have my teeth and hair intact. And my libido too!! :)
