So it seems that finally I have recovered from the nasty flu that had me bedridden for the last couple of days. This weekend I was confined in our apartment all the time. Let me be honest. It seems that I am blaming this confinement of mine on this flu, but in reality this is what my life had been like lately. I was thinking… what am I doing? I am just letting the beautiful summer just pass by without doing anything worthwhile. I had quite a few resolutions before the summer days began. I was planning to devote some time to reading something other than my topic of research, I was really planning to go somewhere for a hiking, maybe camping, I was thinking of developing a nice software… shortly, I wanted to do something creative, be a little adventurous, explore the different corners of the place where I live, see things.. And look, what I have accomplished in the last one and a half months – absolutely nothing. Sometimes this is so depressing. But I know I am better than this. I was not like this all my life, and I don’t remember when the transition occurred which has left me this lazy dumb self. I hate this. I have some resolutions in mind, but I fear to disclose them, lest I again fail to achieve it.

Finally in a moment of desperation, today I booked a car for next weekend. I am definitely going to rent a car this time, for three days, and I am going to drive around a lot. And when I say a lot, I mean A LOT. God help me, please keep me healthy and free from sickness, and lethargy.

Now it is time for a movie, and then going to bed. I have two choices, either recently released Gayab (Hindi) or a 1957 Audrey Hepburn movie – Love in the Afternoon… is it a tough choice? Maybe to me…. Hmm, I guess I will just toss a coin and see.
