Humdrum Sunday.. I have been noticing how lack of space renders your holiday uneventful.. my present house does not have a kitchen.. so nor can I delight myself with good food nor prepare those occasional tea and snacks that cheer you against monotony..
I don't feel like reading or writing either.. that requires space.. when I took this one room stay on the ground floor of a mansion, i judged it too much by its interior and surroundings.. which was, in retrospect, a mistake.. i shouldn't have overlooked space..
XXX
Anyway, I plan to relocate.. but I do not know whether it is by design or inertia, I'm not making any efforts to relocate.. may be somewhere, sub-consciously, I'm perturbed what if the new house is miles off the new job im looking for?
I guess i told you earlier, I'm in the look out for a change work-wise too.. but since that is uncertain, I cannot relocate to any place randomly..
XXX
Personally, lack of space doesn't upset me too much.. i can adjust.. and at the end, it is adjusting which makes life content.. if not excitingly happy and eventful..
But the writer in me feels repressed.. it craves for space.. it craves for happy, mood-enhancing Sundays.. which could boost imagination.. goad him to write..

Interviewed NDMA vice chairman today at his office in Safdurjung.. this was for the earthquake cover story.. he's a sitting MLA..
XXX
Excited about going Patna.. The flight is on the 5th.. Monday itself I'd be home.. bought another fab India kurta for Holi.. I guess I am getting more and more addicted to Fab-india kurtas.. this one was of dark heena colour.. much better than the other one I bought 10 days back..
I guess I'll wear that one on Holika dahan or Holi eve which is on Wednesday... and the heena one on Thursday!
XXX
I know there's a gap in my writing these days.. even when I update, the inhibition is clearly visible.. not that this was a passing fad.. this blog has stood me in good stead always, I'll never really abandon it..
But Im wanting a certain changeover in the work area, and in my accommodation.. I live in Noida which is far off.. It's important to be in main town Delhi... and I need a more spacious house... I guess because I wanted a furnished one, i got only a hotel room kind despite coughing big trash.. I guess I will shift to a proper BHK flat, albeit unfurnished..
XXX
But the changeover in workplace has to precede that, and that's what stopping me from relocating.. and between all it, Im hassled and not wanting to do anything I like doing..
The ideal thing shall be in the following sequence .. the changeover in work area happens.. I go home 45 days before assuming office again.. finish the novel, or at least prepare the first draft.. come back to Del and put up at better place.. and then it's a combination of work and writing, besides applying to different fellowships and successfully bagging one of them too!
XXX
The Goddess shall make that happen.. see, these days I don't even discuss the Goddess either!

Okay it should be March 1.. since this is already 18 past twelve..
but I wanted a Feb 29 entry on my blog..
So, pls let this be flawed..
and give me your approval too :P
XXX
Just wished a friend on FB.. she gets maried this June.. it was a random expression, penned hurriedly.. but not without thought.. perhaps that is how she very much liked it..
"From engagement to marriage is the best and the most beautiful time in a woman's life... (deliberately using the word woman here).. it gives her that sense of pride, sense of beauty.. sense of unoffensive self-importance..and that deep and powerful feel present in even sweet nothing pamper"
