Writer's block!

That's what I am suffering from! I think... Why else haven't I put fingers to key board for over three weeks now? Every time I sit down to write, I can't seem to get up the energy or focus to do so! But when ever I am out and about, ideas pop into my head with infuriating frequency! May be, like the Big B I should take up phone blogging. Ha! Fat chance!!!
So why am I sitting here and burbling on at random? Maybe because I have just come back from seeing a movie, in a movie hall, after something like eight months. And now I know why I haven't been to see a movie in a movie hall for eight months! I just don't want to sit cheek by jowl with the great unwashed Indian public who have NEVER heard about personal hygiene...If I was Bill Gates, I would give away free deos to everyone aged between 15 - 55 and I would be doing humanity a great service.
I am also killing time because I have to rewrite my resume. And that is not something I am looking forward to...
So what else have I got to whinge about?
Yes, I have one great achievement to my credit. I have managed to tame the recalcitrant, in your face auto driver of "mera mahaan dilli"! Now when I am confronted by one of this tribe refusing to take me by meter, I pull out a piece of paper and a pen and take his number down. Why? Because I am going to complain to the Traffic Police Control Centre, that's why. Voila! It works like a charm. And I get to go places with a minimum of fuss and botheration. Now ain't that something, even though I say so myself!
I am also preparing a surprise for my younger son which I hope will please him.
I am working on some nice coffee table books. Hope that works out...
I am also realising (bad grammar!) how much I miss NYC and am putting my heart and soul into figuring out a way to get back, gainfully employed of course, ASAP.
So those are my thoughts for the day. And, oh yes, I have realised yet again, how stoopid our censors are having just seen "Sex and the City"...they cut the movie, for no rhyme and reason, in all the places that actually are all about "Sex and the City".
Why on earth they even released the movie here I don't know! Did they think it was Mary Poppins in disguise? Do they think that Indian adults are not grown up enough for an adult movie? Or were they expecting steaming sex scenes and getting none of that, they clipped even the most innocuous of innuendo's out of tight arsed frustration?
That's all I have to write about for now. Hope I do another one in the near future for the sake of my non-existent readers!!!
