this and that

i think i have too much time on hand to brood and fret and fume. He continues to struggle with his deadlines and i continue to struggle with my temper and impatience.

i am not an understanding person. i am not even a nice person. As i grow older, the little niceties I posses seem to peel away. Now, what is left is a grouchy hag who seems to get a kick out of being mean.

The weekend was good – hail the lord! Saturday was spent on the kitchen design and getting the verification certificate for my passport renewal. He wanted to have pork and drink a peg or two. i don’t like either. i mean, i am not too fond of pork and since i don’t drink anything stronger than coffee, i don’t like him drinking. Talk about being a bitch in the manger. i gave my permission, albeit reluctantly. i pity this guy sometimes for having fallen in love with me – if he is still in love with me, that is! i am a hypocrite. i go on and on about how we should never curb other’s freedom but i am guilty of the same crime.

Sunday started off good. We went for the weekly marketing, got ilish. Cooked. Indulged in a bit- ok, a lot – of passionate loving. Ate. Slept. And then went out for a movie. Which is an event in itself considering the fact that the last time i watched a movie in a theater was “Rang De Basanti” almost a century back. We went for Kung Fu Panda. i am an animated movies junkie. So i enjoyed it a lot. We came back and since it was too good to last, we had a tiff.

On the work front, well, we had to defer one of the loads because QA reported multiple dumps during testing. We had not given much importance to this change as it was a preload. Only to have it sorta explode! Serves me right. i am growing old.

The training for another batch of joinees has started. As always, SC tried to coax me into taking as many classes as possible. i escaped with three classes. i think i have improved as a trainer. Now, if only i can improve as a person.
