It feels like ages since I began my search for a bride—it’s been centuries! My family and I have been on this journey, but we’re still not there yet. In India, we have this concept of ‘alliance’. It’s a rather odd term. When two families come together for an arranged marriage, it’s called an alliance. Are we preparing for a war? Why can’t we come up with a better name for it? We began the search…
In my previous posts, I complained about my inability to type in Colemak layout. However, there’s a silver lining. I still have a place to write. As long as I have this I’m good. As long as I have a text editor. As long as I have a notebook, paper, pen and pencil I can write. Writing grounds me.

It feels like ages since I last wrote something. Since my last post, I’ve changed jobs. I spent about a year there and then decided to move on. Now, I’m starting fresh at a new company in about three months. I’ve decided to quit my current job for a few reasons.

This issue only occurs on Windows OS. To begin working and get into the system somehow, I reverted to using the QWERTY keyboard. I’ve been handicapped by Colemak before, enslaved by it. I couldn’t use other keyboards, and others…
I dictated this on my phone and it ended up too long. So edited using Apple Intelligence and ChatGPT. I’d like to share the story of how I secured a job at Company Q. Around December or January last year, I received news that my previous company was facing financial difficulties. I had worked there for approximately seven years, and it was a great place to work. Everything was going smoothly until…
I am dead once again. Fell in love, She did as well; As fast as we fell in love. We fought and separated quick. She was not right for me. Atleast the current personality of her. People change. Maybe she will too and I will too. Let’s see. I feel empty and dead inside. I just want to die….. Please kill me now…. I don’t want a death by thousand cuts. I want it to be swift and fast. But now I just…
