Greatness.

I slept at 3 in the night yesterday, struggling to finish some office work that had piled up.
I woke up at 7 in the morning when the maid disturbed my diaper dreams.
I worked my ass off till 9 in the night today at work.
It was my longest day at work yet.
I came back to a lonely apartment, and cooked Maggi for myself.
One delightful conversation with J. We spoke about one very specific marketing funda.
Divya is away in Madurai, it did not even occur to me that I should call.
Watched Abhiyum Naanum.Actually shed a tear when the dad hugs the son-in-law in the climax. The bloody movie kept reminding me of Appa. So wanted to see him. Still want to.
It was midnight when i finished watching the film.
It is now 1:40 AM.
A full 100 minutes of sheer unbounded joy. It is abysmally unfortunate that there is no one at this hour to share this inexplicable happiness with.
Nandalala. Ilayaraja. Ecstasy.
On just the second listening, I
sat up. I did not want to sleep.
I played Roadrash (minus the sounds) with the album on a loop for one full hour. Wanted to keep awake with this addiction. I did not mind it one bit that I was getting "busted" time and again in Level 3.
I still do not want to sleep.
Sheer greatness.
The day the man dies, I am flying back to his funeral to get one glimpse of him. I sincerely wish the laws of my life would allow for that. I am sure I will cry buckets, LOL.
Anyone care to join me?

I actually called up Ranga at 2:10 in the night, and spoke for 15 minutes, till the bugger had to go because he "has a new boss".
