This is how I cook it!

I don't know really how to start this one. So, i'll start with the underlying base of this discussion

Multitasking

Human multitasking or multitasking is the performance by an individual of more than one task at the same time. The term is derived from computer multitasking. An example of multitasking is listening to a radio interview while typing an email. Multitasking can result in time wasted due to human context switching and apparently causing more errors due to insufficient attention.


(From wikipedia :- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_multitasking)

Ever since i came across this term as part of my computer science education, i was aware of the existence or non-existence of it around me. I 'knew' that if I could squeeze in more tasks per unit of time, I'd probably be fairing better! I looked down upon people who could only stare at their chat screens, while the other numerous modes of input built into a human body waited for that process to return the thread of control back.

Priority based preemption is now self-adjusting, its not the best yet, it has its own set of parameters unknown to the conscious mind. If I have ever been cranky towards your words or worst still put a deaf ear against your face, u should know where that is coming from - you are probably stuck at the end of a long queue of processes that need attention.

And sometimes, just to avoid all the guilt of having kept you waiting too long, I refrain .. to the time of the day when I can give you all of me you ask for ..

I feel drunk, normally so
Everything good, thoughts
Linger around her
The song that you always loved
The waves that you always heard
Lonesome, she is there
Happiness, she is all you care
Logic defines her, Life is a blur
The anonymous face that u always saw
Finally has form
Touch and proximity are just nouns
Existentiality has new meaning
I will always be greedy, and want more
But there you are.

Finally! .. RFC done yet?

Un-enumerated!

Life without list, without priorities .. order of any sort .. i know this sounds ironic to the very platform where i choose to write this. But maybe its not!

Its neither totally an extension of why lists exists; to make things simpler, to remember – to reiterate – to revisit. Organization from chaos to order .. but what if things were simple enough already to the point that chaos is a welcome change, like the warmth of a mild sun on a shivery winter morning.

Could there be direction without order?

The Omlette theory ....

I'd be really scared to base my existence or more loosely even my happiness around a single someone or something. It would be a disaster to see my world crumble around it!

That goes for a whole lot of things .. from friends to philosophies, beliefs to love ..


ps: With all your eggs in one basket, you are risking your omlette ...

Unsure steps, take me home
Wobbly thoughts cling on
Every last drop of intimacy
That last touch of sanity

You indulge to keep your head up
Just enough to breathe
And see the sun shining
Through shimmers on your wet brow

And pant, its tiring
All the love wasted
You grapple on to weeds
Care wasted, strangers to soul

Have u changed, from what it was
A better you she would had hoped
But another nail through you
Is all that it will take

Randomness .. smell the self-reference, if u have to ..

Chaos, beautifully bounded by a box .. shades of red for a change .. in a monochromish world!

Murphy kicks Bayes' ass!

Guess every thing has a "first time". Well, today was one .. I missed my train for the very first time .. and considering the times I have been in-charge, I guess the fraction stands at 1/50. But for a man, who has never missed a train, and over a long period of 25 years ... this is all but despicable!

And maybe I shouldn't be reading too much into this, but nature reminds me time and again that it has a mind of its own, and in better control of how things go around in this world. For the most part of the hideous torment, things just seemed to fall apart in all rhythm .. as tiles just kept falling under my feet.

(For the superstitious; one of the reasons I am traveling a day late is that I was busy reading discussion on pre-determined events in Fyodor Dvotovskey's 'Crime and Punishment'.)

Hmmm, but everything that happens, happens for good right*. Through all the storms brewing inside (and out - heavy clouds looming over in hyderabad skies, symbolic maybe), I hypothesized that ETHHFG* could be factorized as -

pre-determined events x favorable GOD = ETHHFG

I think I believe that, you could save your ass getting kicked, if Bayes could distribute the failure events more uniformly :D

Ally McBeal

It was a few years back, at an age where my knees should have been bruised and battered with all the 'Falling in Love' i should have been doing ..

Ally McBeal, the quirky lady .. with an overdramatically cute face, weird imagination and confused crushes ... the power girl, with a suite to match .. the teary eyes that melted my heart away! As years zoomed by, the memories faded into oblivion, my love buried under piles of things i would prioritize to remember ..

Until now! I don't really know how it all came up again, could be a casual conversation with a friend, but there she is .. standing on the sidewalks, with storms in her head .. and tht cute little smile .. my love!

So, the weekend was spent catching up on stuff, from where we had left off .. years back. Ally, sweetest!

What makes the show, all its worth (in addition to the lady herself) .. an indulging romantic plot, a background case with its moral dilemma .. the songs that accompany the story .. and to top it all the 'fantasy sequences' that portray the emotional state of the characters!

ps: Don't know if this was the show that started the fantasy sequences* after all, carried forward quite nicely in Scrubs. Absolutely love those ..
