Completion of a year at work also means that I have to work to earn the money that I am being paid. And work hard too.
Without football, weekends are very boring. Sunday evenings after people visiting me have left are even more painfully boring. F1 is boring, the top runners have forgotten how to close down large gaps and even attempt to overtake. Moto GP is infinitely better. Canada was interesting only because of the crashes. The only respite from sporting boredom in the coming months will be India's tour to England. Should be a closely fought series, as bowling wise we are totally equally matched, both just can't get Chanderpaul out.
On weekdays, there is not enough time to get bored though. Anyways need to start making the road trips.
Sometime back, I had embarked on a quest of seeing historically accurate TV series' on Rome. This used to be my pre-nap ritual. In the process finished Rome's second season. Then saw a docu-drama by BBC and Discovery about 6 events and people that changed Rome. Then downloaded Robert Graves' "I, Claudius", a TV series shot in the 1970s. Currently bored of this too. Still have a couple of episodes to watch. But I guess I will buy the book soon. And also have to pick up Suetonius' "Twelve Caesars" when I go home next.
Speaking of books, I have resumed pre-nap book reading. Artemis Fowl and the Lost Colony is boring. Almost no Mulch Diggums and Foaly, replace them with a couple of boring demons, introduce a female genius, but then show her to be dumb, Eoin Colfer has almost lost it. Just another disappointing sequel like Shrek 3, the only sequel I have watched this summer. Spidey, POC and Ocean's Thirteen have been well left.

Chennai 28 is pretty entertaining, Naan Avan Illai is enough timepass. But just can't wait to catch Sivaji. Cheap PVR is not selling Sivaji tickets online. And I don't have the enthu to go put fight at a theatre. My time will surely come, who can avoid the inevitable.

Post after a long time! After ppl leave...it is surely a little difficult to stay alone.
Totally agree abt Artemis Fowl and the lost colony and some parts of it wrt time seem to have come from HP. I am not sure which one came first!
I didnt know you were watching so many series. BTW I was told that every Tuesday at 10, Sherlock Holmes series is shown on the History channel.
Sivaji isnt great! May be the tamil version is better.

as bowling wise we are totally equally matched, both just can't get Chanderpaul out.
LOL. Yeah. But I think England will win with ease thanks to India's inexperienced bowling line up.
