(red mark for once - no feelings!)

surprise on seat - new sleak monitor

(i never asked for it. Did they come to know of my job hunting??)

(no idea! enjoy the luxury!)

bad luck - its a big monitor

magnifies all my past times!

its easy to get noticed now

reduced resolution - now looks same as my old monitor

(looks odd - 2 inch black borders at top n bottom!)

(but then better than getting noticed reading stuff! - twitter/random blogs!)

checked all mails

some major issue in phoren one

(need to resolve by today - or he'll grow whiskers again!)

opened - all closed applications

(pain in the ***!)

for a change filled in my weekly

(had huge data to fill - proud n conceited! smug smug :-| )

no song played as of now

(was trying to get adjusted with this new display for the moment.)

lets begin the day!

got a lucrative offer - but not interested in change

current company - enable her juggle home/work well

new - time demanding, though better tech n money

priority - home/work balance (splly for newly-wed!)

J had in mind - to disclose the present employers bout the offer.

(gave golden suggestion - dont do it unless u may change and its near appraisal time.)

(no point disclosing u lookin out - when they cant do anythin bout it!)

replied with all evidences and detailed step-by-step sorting

got a harsh reply - with confirmation

went to HR - to discuss

(they cant be rude when am correct!)

she was completely opposite to her email version

cool / smiling / considerate - explained me, maybe I applied by mistake

I denied - like a child (but complete honesty)

(after all I actually had NOT APPLIED for the discussed date!!)

she gave in sheepishly - and we mutually smiled

on way back to my floor - thought struck

(YES! indeed I had taken leave on that date AND had also applied too!!)

(S***!! how I myself got confused!! dint have the heart to go back n admit now!)

(after all mail had been circulating btw team seniors & HR seniors! moreover HR female was already quite pissed!)

he kept walking single-mindedly. looking some 6 steps ahead of him.

showed them the chair n moved to pantry to have tea n home brought toasts

prepared tea

repair guys comes n asks - 'I cleaned ur table in the morning, should I throw the boxes arranged on the table ??'

I told - its just the chair that needs to be fixed, rather.. just the wheel!

Am having tea n toast

hes back n asks should we change the chair?

Had to literally HOLLER - wheel got loose n dropped off. I fixed it yesterday. Today while cleaning it again dropped off, I guess. SO PLEASE JUST TIGHTEN THE SCREWS OF THE WHEEL TO THE CHAIR!!!! THATS IT!!!!!!!!!!

(seems now he understood. finally!)

came back n saw - the chair's missing

took another chair from an occupied cubicle

(should have done the first thing in the morning!)

2 mins later - can listen somebdy pulling a chair

(relieved - my chair is back!! :) )

its the same guy - offering me a different chair by the time they do something with mine!!!

I take it. Ask him to keep the current chair back to the empty cubicle.

anybody it could be - who'd love this unique flavor

3:00

finally offered chocolates to PL

(he gulped them)

got some help on stuck folders - though it dint solve it

was invited to join them for lunch

did - join, though kept analysing strands of saag all through the ordeal

once back again prsuaded D to have lunch

(seems shes in a no-holds-barred-foul mood!)

checked pending tweets

some nice ones there - retweeted

3:37

twitter kept me busy

some funny, some info articles tip-off

thought should call-up MBA ppl

but post-poned for after HR meeting

(still an hour to go - no anxiety as ystrday)

surdy got a call - guess it was some consultant (!!!!!)

want to have another chocolate

(would it be good for my weight-loss-prog ?)

3:41

having it :)

too amazing to resist - wish i cud share with D :(

(would have cheered her up)

would thank Adi personally for it

(would ensure a bigger parcel next time :P)

3:47

now I wish it was chhutti time

dont feel like doing anything further on seat now

but no phone calls to make - yet

guess would SMS R

3:56

messaged R on my inability to upload her niece's pic

got a hauntingly sorrowful reply - saying thanks

(and also that she HOPES!! we meet soon)

(was that a backlash on my inability / her undecided future / anything else... ?)

I just hope - thats how she genrally replies

(being an HR person)

4:02

posted ystrday's entry

read while posting

(all smug :-| )

4:12

commented at S's weekly post

has there been a camera fixed at my back

seems everybody passing-by looking suspiciously at me

(self-guilty or psyched ?? )

4:18

leaving for the meeting

(fingers crossed, prayers on lips)

(may God help me zipping up my lips - Amen!)

4:48

done with meeting - not bad

reprimanded (gently) on timings (expected!)

on work by PM - gave a fitting reply

been set with goals

(its nice to be not-producive, ensures easy goals :P )

but now would have to work - actually work!

5:02

how does it feel after being caught for doing a a prank in school

then being called by headmistress and class teacher

gently been discusses issues with the problem child

(as in if its psychological / family problems / is really a problem child)

child makes the most innocent face - hes(shes in this case) even seen

and a prayer to God - May not let me be caught next time!

(May have some friends to sign proxy - in this case!!)

come back to class all looking jubliant

as if a celebrations packet was given by the party

and all three of us shared and had while discussing my lovely prankies

sit on the seat

and then suddenly feel - I was actually given a warning to mend off my ways! !! !!!!!!

(let it be - mar gaye sudhaarne waale!! :) )

5:29

read sidin's 1 more cubicle entry

discussed with mom on today's home detour

checked my own company's careers section

(was fishy ! - I must say)

5:31

(dont know How I confessed - late coming has become a habit! )

(perhaps was the best solution in the situation!)

(how much I wanted to tell her about my Huge Break-up, wanted to see her drown in tears. Being a female she would understand more than I would try to make her do so...... (evil!! :-} ))
