After a really, really long time, I've finally got Linux loaded onto my system - thanks Ujji. And after a really, really long time, I sat back listening to last.fm's radio on the same. I usually put on my headphones when I listen to music, unless I'm all alone. And since old habits die hard, I put on my headphones ćoz I had company - Smurf. After a few numbers, Lifehouse's 'Hanging by a moment' crooned and involuntarily, I plugged out my headphones and let the number play out loud. Almost immediately, Smurf was by my side craning his neck and sniffing at my laptop wondering who this new person was and why he wasn't visible. A few seconds and he figured out where the speakers of my system were (it took me a few days to figure that out) and he just stood there, looking at those speakers completely mesmerized. We sat together through the next few tracks and he seemed to enjoy the experience thoroughly! Few more and he was sound asleep. I seem to have finally found someone who enjoys music the way I do. Perk - no nonsensical comments!

Of tiny-tots and Smurf...
A long awaiting post, this. Thanks to Pooja and her new found zeal of blogging, I decided to sit back and finish this piece.
2009 has been a truly memorable year. Not just 'coz I finally tied the knot, but more so 'coz I've had the good fortune of meeting umpteen wonderful people. Thinking of them right now, makes me feel very warm... like I'm at home. These people brought along with them, a dozen perks that lit-up my life in the most brilliant manner - their adorable little ones. Aarya, Mit, Asmi, Aadit, Eshaan, Aadhyaa, Malhar, and few in the making... Each with a quality that sets them apart from all the others. Life around kids was always amusing... now it's a spectacle. You can feel the innocence that surrounds you... and the way life (or is it knowledge??!) grows over it. It makes you respect life itself. Someday hopefully, in this journey of life... innocence returns.
And then ofcourse, there's Smurf...
