Whew....

I've got almost 6-7 posts that are waiting to be completed....whew! My days are packed! : Not finding the time to sit down and finish them....life is chugging along but the ideas are getting 'stored' in a word document....so, there's perhaps no worry of losing the train of thoughts...or is there? Mmmmm? :)

Anyways, here's something (some pictures and a quote) that I had put together last year (and simply loved the final outcome). This one’s just to compensate for the lack of ‘activity’ on my blog; even as I realized that the blog is beginning to look a tad boring without pictures. Good thing I recalled that this one is a great picture to share...what say?


PS: In the next few days, I should be able to hopefully put up a longish article on strategizing and the like, based on a seminar that I attended in office!


UPDATE: The cartoon you see in this post is of course, our lovable, Hobbes...Calvin's pet, best friend and alter ego! The actual context is one where Calvin tries out various goggles and asks Hobbes for his opinion. Hobbes responds with so many different expressions when calvin tries out the goggles... :) I pulled out the various expressions, put them up in one box and thought the quote below (which is my own quote) suits the picture amazingly well. :), Thanks to Bill Watterson for the inspiration! Those who know me also know that I can never stop thanking Bill for the wonderful Calvin n Hobbes stories... :). Thanks to neha for helping me put this post in the right perspective and add this bit to make it a complete one...! :)

neha,
:) thanks for the wake-up call. well, i dont want to sound defensive...but i guess i sort of put up this post in a tearing hurry and did not, for a second, think about putting up info on Bill Watterson as I've spoken about C&H a lot of times throughout my blog....and well, the story of the creation goes like this - in reality, the strip is one where Calvin tries out various goggles and asks Hobbes for his opinion and Hobbes reacts in different ways in response to diff. goggles. I cut out the various expressions of Hobbes, put them together and then thought of this quote that seemed amazingly suitable. I cant think of a world without C&H...in other words Bill Watterson....I take absolutely no credit for this post....i mean it. It's all Bill Watterson's...I don't know if this sort of makes up for forgetting to write the post in the way it should have ideally been. But I've learned my lesson...thanks for making me add this to the post...
