feels like

i like the feels like part of the weather forecast.

Weather is 2 celcius
feels like -3 celcius

the light snow fall with heavy rain was beautiful at 7am from the hotel window.

tomorrow it promises to be 6 celcius only ( with a feels like tag of -6 only ).

a tag from Jummy Bear

So since I'm waiting for my manager to arrive and we start the long meetings i guess i will do the tag from Jummy Bear or i should name her Meow or somethingy now. Somehow i cant imagine a Bear saying Meow though. 


So 16 Random things about myself. 

And i have been staring at this for a while now trying to come up with stuff random enough to be random 

another 30 mins have passed but to be honest i wasn't looking here, was signing some things so , now lets see if i can crack this 

1- A geek at heart. shouldn't come as a surprise to those who know me. 

2- Was a destructive child, mostly for my own toys, liked to open them up to see what was inside or how they break when thrown from the roof down to the lawn. ( specially glass things , different heights , different force etc etc ). I found that a round glass when thrown at a certain height at a certain angle will bounce back up half the height of the fall and you have one chance to catch it , if you miss the glass will break. 

3- the most important page on a newspaper is the comics one. I would be happy if it was only that page that came each day only. 


4- Someday i will create a time suspension technology so i will have time to read / watch  / Play things i want.  There are books i never get my hands on but they are on the list , there are things i never watched but i want to some day.  i Have loads of games i never finished nor will ever finish i think but i buy them still and put them down. Some are those i just played once others never 

5-  Awkward silences are part of my first (second , third , fourth , .... so on ) meetings with anyone. 


6-  i am a very casual shopper, i buy things at whim, my wife is thankfully not like me.  

7-  there is not enough time in the day to sleep all the sleep i need

8- the new office extension i have used to be of the kitchen, the prank i used to play while being in kitchen was i would pick up and claim it was my number, now i have to do that same thing each day number of times without it being a prank. 

9- i hate giving presentations. Seems each passing year my responsibilities in presenting more and more stuff is increasing. 

10- when im cold i take a shower. my family says i sterilize not shower. 

11- Im a theory Y manager whose manager is Theory X. 

12- Im trying to keep my desktop free of unwanted clutter, but somehow it keeps on growing till i put them all in a folder and dump them in c:\Desktop Junk, many a times very important files are lost  (read misplaced ) that way. 

13-  i have 36 pairs of socks. 20 blacks.  rest shades of brown / blue. And somehow they keep on vanishing and reappearing on their own. 

14-  i kill shoes in 8 months or less , as in formal shoes

15-  i wish i had known some cool math tricks when i was a kid , would have saved loads of time.

16- i love rain, night rain to be exact. The heavier it is , and the colder it is , the better, 

so there, 16 random things , i think they are random dont you ? 

So next step to tag 16 ppl, lets see, Hemlock you be it, Soaring Angel, Tanzilla,  thts the ppl i know who would somehow read this blog still  apart from the one who tagged mE in the first place,  for the rest if anyone stumbles here , will you be bored enough to tag and leave a comment telling you are done ? lets see if random ppl can be utilized this way. 

Or if the random person is not a silent observer ONLY then we would never know would we ? 

So be it..........

slow

its a slow day today, like after soooooooo many months , ever since marrige i have not had a slow day at work , its always one thing or the other going on and today i find myself with not a single thing to work on .

i have to go meet the manager in a while , dont feel like doing it, i watched big bang theory , now i think i might watch the new episode of how i met your mother, now im just passing time moving here and there on some websites ,

my hotmail inbox has huge pile of unread email, it would mostly be forwarded mails or from mailists so next task is to get up to date on that.

Seems strange not to have to study anymroe , past one month i was constantly studying in anytime i got in between work, now there kinda sort of a void present in its place, i need to go to a book store as well to get somethingy to read, i wish borders was here in pakistan.

To top it all of tomorrow i a holiday and i dont have cable at home installed yet. I planned the cable to be there once my exam was over but it kinda got delayed as the fibre guys wanted to dig out the front lawn and since i dont own the house i could not give a go ahead, after a week of bac and forth a mid ground was achived and they have yet to complete there work , they gave me a date of 2 days yesterday and tomorrow is a holiday so i dont think i would be getting any cable till firday.

I would be seting up my xbox today though, or atleast i think i would , i have been buying games to play as in i have all the current titles i would like to play but have yet to ge time to sit down alone to do so. Marrige does limit ones options in ways more than one.
