I’m back! I’m cheerful again! Existential crisis over. Stop worrying about me! It’s gonna be a great day, and my Delhi 6 review will be going up shortly. And tonight I will have the great joy of NOT seeing 2.0, and thus saving lots of money and time.
Ready for the resolution of the crisis? Decision that a) the kind of job I would want doesn’t really exist any more; b) in that case, why make myself miserable chasing it? I should just stay here and keep doing good work that I enjoy and stop thinking about alternative paths. Oh, and also I should take all your suggestions for fun posts for November/December.
Moving on! Let’s have a nice cheerful November 30th! Also, did you know Bappi Lahiri’s birthday was this week? It was! And this song is guaranteed to put a smile on your face.
That’s pretty much where I am right now, too. With the added notion that the marketplace is in a state of flux right now and may be for some time. Keep Doing You.
And publish a volume of your fan fics.

But my fan fics are so bad!!!! There is so much “and then….and then….and then”. And I suspect “and then they have sex” is not the most poetic way to describe the joining of two bodies and souls.

Clearly you haven’t read much self-published romance. Your fan-fics are head and shoulders above the crowd.

There’s fade to black!! I think you have great ideas for romances, and you could seriously write in the romance industry. There’s a reason why most of the business in publishing is in romance – it’s a huge market!
You have a huge library now of fan fiction ideas that you could make into books. Self publishing on Amazon, too!

I used to read Barbara Cartland, and she had the most ridiculous phrases like “and then he brought her to the peak of pleasure”. I think “and then they had sex” is better than that. But a simple “…….” might be best of all.

Are you never going to see 2.0 or just not see it tonight?

Today is my birthday! I’m the same age as the Khans. That seems significant somehow.

All the Khans were born in the same year? I didn’t know that! Huh. Astrologers must have something to say about that. (1965 – I just looked it up).

Makes it easier to remember how old they all are, because it’s always the same. Well, not always, Salman is in December and Aamir in April, so it’s really only about 4 months.

I got your holiday card!! Thank you so much! Loved the one with Baahubali pictures. You’re right about the holidays – I haven’t had much time to watch or comment unfortunately. Also because I was busy watching the Twilight series – yeah, I’m only 10 years late to this lol. The first movie was pretty good (hehe my new guilty pleasure) and then I read up about the whole Robsten story and now I’m hooked (or was hooked, cos its effectively finished). But I can understand why they were the rage they were.

For Robsten, I watched all the Twilight movies, and Snow White and the Huntsman and I liked Snow White way more. So my reaction to the implosion was less “no! no more dreamy Twilight romance!” and more “no! now she can’t work with that director again and I wanted a sequel to Snow White!”
