C for Corpse - Sue grafton

 After Ordeal by innocence, started reading C for Corpse by Sue Grafton. To be honest I read it for a long time during lunch intervals in Galaries and have forgotten what I read. But I did finish reading. It was dramatic I. The end. When a person what had a deadly accident with his best friend dying in the accident he being seriously injured and trying to recover, he approaches Kinsey millhone, as he thinks that somebody was trying to kill him. His accident makes him forget who he suspects and why. He thinks he has given a red address book which might be a clue for his memory loss and maybe give him an idea of who is trying to murder him. Kinsey starts investigation and in middle of her investigation he dies in a car accident. Kinsey solves the case. What is with life, as usual days just vanish from my life. Watching back to back episodes of next in fashion, beyond paradise and Siddhartha Malhotra movies(my daughter is a big fan of his). Watched hasee to phasee and then Student of ...

Ordeal by innocence

 Birmingham trip is over.. hail and visibility was bad but home safe.. Watched Sir, Dhanush movie and slept watching it. Had dinner from chennai dosa. Started reading ordeal by innocence. Dr. Calgary, whose been on an Antarctic expedition comes home, to learn that Jack Argyle, who has been charged with murder of his mother, was actually given a lift by Dr. Calgary at the time of murder. Unfortunately, Jack died of pneumonia in prison. So he wants him to pardoned and declared not guilty. He visits the family and tells them the truth. Instead of being happy, they are shocked.  I need to read to know what happens. Are there more murders in store? What will the actual murder do now? People might be looking out for him.. Wait and see.. Learnt about Sridhar Vembu’s divorce.. which is supposedly in news in India.
 Been a week since we got out Tessy.
 Chatgpt buzz… In office, they said bing has integrated chatgpt in its search and you can ask questions.. so my colleagues, asked the question can you recommend a movie as good as interstellar. Then the conversation moved on to Mother’s Day gifts. Flowers too romantic. Chocolates just fine. Or go visit and just give her a hug..
 Writing something everyday was the aim and did not fulfil right on the second day. Now life is just cooking, eating, going to work and Netflix in the evening. And the fact is we are rewatching the same programs as we don’t remember what happened in the movies. Indian programmes are getting very violent. Maybe that was the reason I preferred Korean and Japanese programs.  I had watched the Good morning call so many times now. I got Rosettastone recently and I am learning Spanish and Japanese. I am also watching Destinos videos. Got Udemy membership from work and planning to take Pluralsight membership personally. What to do next is the big problem. I got to the central library yesterday and got so many books. One Harlan coben, one John Grisham and four art books - one is flower making, two drawing buildings and another one to draw dragons. I think I should be posting more on Instagram.  Also, I am doing aws courses, c# courses, laravel courses, unit testing courses In the...

Blogging after nearly 10 years - day 1

 Well, trying to blog properly after nearly 10 years. So to differentiate this new phase of life, I start this new blog. What’s changed is my memory. I don’t remember things that easily. Suddenly I am in this brain fog and I don’t remember names, things.. all the important to document my life..  If not for others it’s for me. Enjoyed reading my blogs from 2011 and now I feel it necessary to do so. Life takes interesting turns. And the first month of this year has been the worst with my company announcing redundancies and with the brain fog and everything it was worse. Maybe the worse is over. I was not affected by the redundancy.  Been on a spending streak.. go rosettastone…practicing Spanish and Japanese. Doing the course, destinos side by side.. as usual.. bought clothes on Tu. also, want to start the Japanese and Russian courses on YouTube side by side.. started reading books again. Practising my drawings… Life is interesting.. I want to preserve and record every momen...
