Yesterday I turned …oops lost count….
Though I hate the concept of “birthday,” the day was enjoyable – got up early, went to temple with my wife and son (it does not hurt to have god on your side…), went out shopping with my wife, and had a small family dinner in the evening. I also came to terms with the fact that it is alright to be on the (very) wrong side of thirties – age is just another statistic anyways (sour grapes?...nah!)
Now when I look back at the last one year, 2009 was a mixed bag for me. I re-started my career after a one year sabbatical, re-settled in Gurgaon, connected with some old friends, really loved seeing my son do his “firsts” (first crawl, first step, first word, first gesture…), invested in some assets, sorted out some long pending issues. I however failed to move forward on one goal that I had set for myself on my last birthday – that of beginning to pen my first novel. Though I do have the plot in mind, I guess I could not find enough “literary momentum” to pen my plot.
I however am determined to get cracking on that in January 2010…
As I close possibly my last blog entry this year, let me take a moment to wish all the citizens of blogosphere a rocking 2010. I hope the year brings peace and happiness all over…

I love birthdays and actually look forward to each one. Hope you get a good start on that novel. I'm a frustrated writer too :-) Happy new year!
