Back... and raring to go!

"Will you have your dinner? It's almost 11PM." -- "Not Yet! I am still on a call."
"Work with this. What you asked for is not happening?"
"We need to get this done asap. We are 2 days from the show."
"What's the hold up?"
"It's complicated but doable."
"Sorry, I am on a call for the next 4 hours."
[clamour... clamour... clamour!]

I wake up with a start. The blackberry on my bedside table is blinking and the red flashes irritate my sleepy eyes. My head feels heavy and eyes hurt. My mind has been in run mode all night. It feels as if I never slept and to think of the fact, I hit the sack at 0100 hrs. Argh! What have I become?

The current workload makes the word 'deluge' feel like an atom, if not anything smaller. The new job is now more than five quarters old and the ride has been quite interesting. And it is only getting increasingly busier with the days being packed with action and the nights packed with thought. I am not complaining as I am firm believer of "Be careful of what you wish for." I wished for this and I have to ride the tide and not be hit by the waves as they will keep on coming.

It's time to be back on this channel - for some therapeutic time-off. More later... soon.
