5 years of blogging

I have stopped blogging regularly since when I got married.Not that my wedding or my life after wedding has forbidden me from blogging but just that its not been as easy as the bachelor life when there was no need to think about things before putting it down in the blog.

Anyways,I looked at my archives on the left side of this blog and found that 5 years ago sometime In May 2003 I started blogging.
It was really a pleasure blogging in the 2003/2004 and 2005 timeframe.I had a regular readership and was able to vent out my frustration and sometimes even show off my so-called creativity through stories,anagrams etc.

Lifes changed a lot in the last 5 yrs..got a job..got married...bought a house... being the main changes.As I approach the boring stage of 30 to 40 yrs I guess I am getting hints of the midlife crisis with nothing seeming interesting.May be I should just get back to active scribbling in my blog or get into something else like painting which I always liked and wanted to do but never pursued or at least o back to my favorite thing crosswords.

Its Memorial day weekend and as everyone seems to have left the office premises,I find me sitting here and doing nothing.It kind of reminds me of my good old coop or MS days when there was nothing much to do.I have somehow been brought up in a way or I myself have made this a habit to not have too many friends.I dislike the idea of socializing voluntarily just for the sake of socializing.In fact all my friends have been attained through situational,mandatory means such as being a classmate or being a colleague or being a neighbor.I can't recall any friend that I casually picked up from a train travel or a social gathering.The reason I ranted about my friendship is,I am kind of finding it difficult to find company during the 'thangamani ensaay' phase when wifey has gone to India.All friends are either scattered across the globe or have their own plans for the memorial weekend.

Nevertheless I am trying to enjoy the silence and new found freedom where in I can just simply do nothing and introspect about so many things.Time seems to have taken a slow motion pace but then it compensates for the busy,frenetic phase it has been flying by all these years.
