I am Bored

I am really feeling very bored :(

Nowadays I am not able to get up early. Early as in by 7am. The weather is so good to wrap yourself in blanket and sleep forgetting the existence of the outside world!!! My boredom starts from the moment I wake up, as I don’t have the required energy to overcome the resistance of my desire to sleep more. But I have to get up as it’s the question of two square meals.

By the time I get up, get ready and leave for office the traffic jams will be at its peak. It takes around one and a half hour to reach office. While yawning I look around at the co-rider’s faces, I find the dreamy eyes, lazy postures and bored looks. People see what they want to see, you see.

I reach office by 11:30 which is almost lunch time. Good lord !!!
Then my drowsy mind takes the advantage of this and decides to start working only after the lunch. May be it feels having lunch may induce some energy boosters so that it can wake up completely or may be it ends the boredom.

So my half closed eyes start browsing through the official mails, forwarded mails and news websites, glancing watch every now and then. Sleep again throws its charm on me leading to more boredom.

Boredom is like a pitiless zooming in on the epidermis of time. Every instant is dilated and magnified like the pores of the face.
-- Charlotte Whitton

So it almost takes 3 to 4 hrs to strike 12:30 and which leaves the boredom to increase exponentially.

At last I am done with my lunch and again am back in my 3x3 palace. Trying to recollect at what point I had stopped my previous day’s work.

Ahh !!! The work is so boring.
I am not able to bring up the setup.
The network is too slow. See... even the network is bored of its every day’s work.
The sessions are not coming up.
Heavy lunch is adding more heaviness to the already heavy eye lids. My mega slow mind is now thinking “Actually I can postpone it to tomorrow as it is not too critical”.

Procrastination, a byproduct of boredom, had already started working within me.
Then I think “Okay let me blog, but what to blog?” I can feel the cloudy whether both inside and outside. My mind just wants to sleep tight.
“Shall I go home taking half a day leave????”

“Hmmmm... I do not have any leaves left with me”

Boredom had established it undisputed throne in my mind and heart and ruling efficiently. Its forts are so strong and high I am not able to muster the energy to fight it out.

So I ended up writing this boring post.

After another 10 to 12hrs..........

I finished 9 working hours. So I can leave for home now.
After the dinner I will sleep :)
Yes Yes Yes !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh my goodness !!!!!!
It’s so fresh now...........
Some sort of energy flowing in my heart and mind.
The face is lit up......
I am out of boredom and am not feeling drowsy.......
My eyes are wide open..........

No traffic jams at all on the roads.....
My scooty is running at rocketing speed.......

Whether is clear both inside and outside............ :)

Mind is now thinking...
baap re!!!! Finally it’s thinking....

”Once I reach home, finish the daily chores, sleep and tomorrow morning get up early (7am) and start the day afresh.... “
“Yeah.. Tomorrow I have so much to do.... “

As per the plans I am done with my daily chores. Now feeling like relaxing after the tough day...
So I am watching TV. Then I remembered I have some 50 pages from the novel left to read. I started reading.
I finished it.
Wow, what an ending....
I looked at my watch... It’s already 1am in the night.

And I slept............

I heard MIL banging the door...
I thought why she is banging the door in the middle of the night.
I suddenly got up...
Looked around.... It’s already morning
Looked at my watch...
Oh god ... NO !!!!!!!
It’s 9am...

I am still feeling sleepy...
I don’t want to go to office today :(
Its sooooooooooo booooooring

The story continues as usual...................

the measure of boredom is interesting with relation to the actual time....especially in this sentence "So it almost takes 3 to 4 hrs to strike 12:30 and which leaves the boredom to increase exponentially"
