A Bitter Morning...

The day started as irksomely as it could have been.Having worked through the night the previous weeks, it was time for an awry change in my schedule. All this time i had been sleeping through the day and my biological clock had got accustomed to the Pacific time zone. This week however i had to face the agony of getting up early in the morning as the schedules were changed.
The morning shifts are really annoying for the basic fact that one has to wake up very early.I had always been a huge fan getting up late and this change annoyed me.The misery was further compounded by the severe winter.
I was too lazy to even get out of my bed but faced with no other option i somehow managed to get going and managed to reach my pick up point in time for the cab. I probably for the first time in my life experienced a feel of jet lag but the irony was that i never boarded a flight.It seemed to be a jinxed morning.The cab for which i was waiting never arrived. The driver was probably at a far of place and had apparently dozed off. It was certain that i would to face the horrendous task of waiting in the cold for at least another thirty minutes. The wait seemed to last for an eternity.My brain seemed to have got sluggish in the cold as i forgot that i had got my iPod with me.So i stood wondering what to do till the cab arrived.
I however managed to find some respite from the bitting cold at a road side tea stall.I decided to grab a cup of hot tea that was available. The hot tea provided me the much needed warmth. I was furious with the cab driver for he had made me wait in the cold and planned to formally lodge a complaint. He however made up a story of having a punctured tyre and i had no other option but to listen to all his anecdotes.
Having had a wretched morning, i was fortunate that i had no work.Having woken up early, I felt a bit heavy-eyed. So i decided to place the bitter morning experience on the back burner and dozed off.

A Blogger Finally

To be candid i had no clue as to what the world blogs had in store for me until i decided to explore a link on one of my friends' orkut profile. I had always been reluctant to the idea of writing and it was natural that i was content on only reading the blogs. The idea of writing my first blog spawned up one fine night. As had been the practice the whole week, i had to burn the midnight oil doing nothing. It was thanksgiving week and most of my clients were away partying and i had nothing to do except watching movies, chatting and orkuting. Having done enough of all these throughout the week i then decided to hit the roads. Having made up mind to write, i then had to decide on what to write. As is the case with all new bloggers i had no inkling of what i am gonna write. I kept on thinking and browsed a few other blogs as well in a hope that something worthwhile might sprang up. Unfortunately, nothing worthy of being my first blog came up. After a lot of deliberations i then decided to write on how i became a blogger.
