On a Sunday Morning

Heavy showers in the morning today.

Listening to : Ali Imam – Badnaam (Tribute To Aamir Zaki). Just recalled that Amir Zaki bhi koi tha ...

Fifteen minutes later:

Talked to Asif Ali (AA) on phone after a long time, a chain smoker and a friend since university days, and then room neighbor; we shared a small common terrace in the hostel at the backside of our rooms on first floor. Though a small terrace but still sufficient enough to accommodate a ten feet long heavy wooden bench he managed to seize from probably the mess hall on ground floor. Must have been a little bit of hard work to bring it upstairs. It was the second year of engineering, year 2001, and for next two years, from the start of autumn in September till summer vacations in May, this terrace used to be our one of the calmest places in hostel to laze around in the evenings.

Mashoor e Zamana Bhatti Sb, AA's school-fellow, sometimes used to join us there. Both used to smoke while we all listened to the Pakistani pop music on a tape recorder in a loud volume. Don't remember the fate of that tape recorder; it was replaced by PC and woofers later.

While i am typing the post, i am reminded by my wife not to get nostalgic, call the plumber and get the geyser fixed, water is cold in the morning and she can't use it to wash the baby. And do i know that a wall hanger in the washroom and the baby's bicycle need a fix too..? You are such a lazy person, get over this nostalgia - so that's how it is ... good old days of past to this day! 

Anyway, signing out with a good song below, enjoy:

Iftar

Pre-iIftar Menu: Dua to get rid of present employer.

Iftar Menu: Onion rings, Dahi Balay, Samosay, Chilled Coke.

Roh Afza bhi tha .. Chilled Roh Afza ... Jug Toot gaya .. Roh Afza Bah Gaya .. Raha Naam Allah Ka  ... Ore Chilled Coke Nay Pias Bujha'ey! :)

Goings on

Nothing much is happening except that i want to switch the job and move out of Islamablah within a year. Bosstards at work, besides practicing nasty politics in everything, don't let people quit that easily - one big problem here, as they have an attitude and policy of not accepting the resign until the next opportunity is completely lost - It could be a period between six months to an year. However, a good link makes things easier here. So i have to find both, an opportunity and a good link.

Sharabi Rats

There is a small and scattered population of rats in our office. Although mouse traps have been set in place since long - but these rats are clever. They never touch or even get closer to the traps. They like to feast on empty lunch boxes and bottles.

Today Someone told me that the rats have been partying on #Isopropyl #Alcohol we keep in the office store. Those Sharabi Rats also tried #Glint, but didn't like it much, as only a couple of bottles were damaged and the remaining were intact!

A long time since last update.

An hour ago, i was browsing through old posts - it was all nostalgic. Only an Urdu Post written on Eid in January 2006 and a Tag Post done in Feburary 2009 made me happy.

I browsed for an hour, actually searching for a song  i had mentioned in my posts long ago.  

Lyrics search on google didn't help much to reach the song title or the artist's name.

.As I couldn't recall my memory, i kept on skimming the posts one by one. Finally after a mix of search

efforts on my blog and google, i found it through google: The Rising - Jhoot. It was song of the year 2005-

2006. Now, it will remain in the playlist for a few days then i'll forget it again as I seldom listen to the music

now.



My laptop's LCD needs a repair. The screen is covered with tightly spaced, vertical red lines for 32 bit color

mode (And with blue lines for 16 bit color mode). If you ask me which mode is better, it is 16 bit at the

moment - it is more legible through the Blue ones. Sometimes, when i scroll up or down, these lines

disappear for a while and then reappear - blurring the display and making it a bit hard to read clearly.




What i am gonna do now is to check my Facebook feed, but first i have to retrieve my password, which, i

have forgotten the second time in two days.
