The drudgeries of life

Done masquerading :)
Ok folks! This is it...
For 6 long years, on and off, I've been typing out shit at this particular location.
And boy, when I look back, I've typed out lots of crazy posts out here... ranging from utterly childish, totally boyish, funnily desperate, amusingly naive, absurdly abusive, ecstatically happy, depressingly sad, completely smitten, manically romantic, absolutely philosophical, mind-numbingly nonsensical, to outrightly mature (or so I think!).
Talk about a masquerade of emotions :)
For a Friday that started with a flat tyre and ended with a very dear friend's marriage which I couldn't attend, today turned out to be a day that made me understand why someone coined the acronym TGIF (Thank God It's Friday, for the uninitiated)
Towards the end of the day, tugging along a bag of mixed emotions (or a mixed bag of emotions, if it sounds heavier!).
Since 2002 when I actually stepped out of home, I've been on the move all over the country.
But it was only in the last 3 years that I got to witness and experience big city life and big city people up close.
And 1100 days later, I still haven't figured out either of the two... these people and their lifestyles baffle me, forever a small town person by heart.
Once, maybe, I thought I came close to establishing a connection, but then there's so much congestion these days that the link simply failed :)
Oh well. "Nice try, but not for you... never", consoled an inner voice.
Time to move on to a much smaller place...
Moving on is funny, really.
It's like crossing a stream by stepping onto stones strewn about here and there in the water: while one foot, unsure of itself lands on the next stone, the other foot still remains fixated on the preceding stone, doubtful of whether to let go or not.
Anyway despite all of it, you somehow manage to rid yourself of all fears and the lagging foot shoots ahead!
Voila! Life as I know it...
Enough of the gobbledygook.
The crux of the matter: No more shall there be a masquerade of emotions. That's passe (starting this moment).
Thanks for the readership, comments, etc. :)
I now officialy declare this blog a dlog (dead blog, if you may... it'll exist for nostalgia's sake, but there'll never be another post added to it)
Cheers!

Oh Steve, come on! You are too good to quit your blog. :) You might just need a long break like I took. If theres one thing I learned is that writing out your thoughts gets into your blood after awhile....It's hard to stay away forever. Never say never ;) Lets keep in touch dear!
Love, Jen
Hey Jen,

Will mail you shortly... that'll clarify things!
How's Imaan? Lots of love and kisses to the little angel!
