Apart from a trip to work and a 3 hour sleep in the evening, I’ve been with her all day.
Interesting writing, Alice Munroe’s is. The first of part of the book ‘No advantages’ – after a sort of a rambly start is just about warming up. How this book will fit into my ‘spend time on only the kind of books which will provide wholesome fundae / gyaan / subject knowledge ’ is something i still dont know **
There are trips to Landmark, even, um, kinokuniya in store later this month.
Starting tomorrow – i’l spend a couple of days in madras, then a day or two in Delhi, a couple in Jalandhar (S has promised me a droolworthy sightseeing trip this Sunday to Amristar), back Home and then to Thailand, returning via Bombay for Cphi.
I actually wanted to get through the posts on Madrid and Barcelona today – but cant – they’ll continue to remain WsIP
I’ve shifted a table, sofa outside the penthouse, to the TV room, hoping to get through work, whilst keeping the TV on, hoping that Man UTD wont lose.
IF i am satisfied with what work i get through tonight – ive promised myself that i’l watch Inglorious Basterds in Madras on Tuesday night.
Alone. If it really comes to that.
** MB and i have been talking a lot about money making, quality of life etc. ‘ Quality of Life ’ loosely defined as maximizing time spent ( from total available time ) over a standard list of things one enjoys doing. There is of course, a more sophisticated explanation to Quality of Life that we’re clear about – but it is (im sure to everyone’s relief) for another day.
The mechanism, variables we have to consider while choosing what books to spend time on – is what i meant. Will write it up when it takes concise shape.
