Weekend Jammin

So, officially kickstarted 2 days of working with communicator off... or may be 2 days of planning to do so ... to wake up to another guilty monday morning! Anyway, living it up with the latest track my kids & I have picked up. Die hard fans of AM! :D My ticket to feeling young... with the body of a 60 year old :S. I have certainly physically aged with all this sitting around. I'm ashamed of my lifestyle right now. I should do something about this. Will procrastinate this ... for 1 month to be precise, so I can draft a concrete set of 2021 resolutions... that will enable some more procrastination of course. Anyway here is whats on loop on my play list & in my head when Im not with Jabra.
"Look At Us Now What Have We Become? I Don’t Recognise Us Anymore"

Writers Block!

I don't think it right to call myself a writer but still... May be more appropriate to say what I faced was a 'bloggers block'!! Still feel quite numb inside like nothing excites me anymore.


Even binge watching stuff on OTT platforms has lost its charm. I keep contemplating going back to books... & I tried ... but - dead inside!

I was also sure that life had too much to offer to watch series. I always stuck to movies to get done with what I started. Even that changed... because - dead inside!

So anyway, caught up with a few remarkable series that explained patriarchy quite well. Queen's Gambit (because the in-laws couldn't stop raving about it) and now catching up with the Crown. Some of those dialogues in both these series have said it so effectively - like when Queen Elizabeth says "I would ask you to consider your response not that which my age and gender would suggest.. in light of the respect that my rank and my office deserve'. The Queen of all people had to say this!!!... and that too in the beginning of the 20th century. This dialog is still relevant and I believe every woman - even someone as common as me - can still use this!! Actually, truth be told, I never ever thought I would sympathize with the obstinacy of British royalty but I finally have begun to understand their side! I'm amazed at how every coin does have two sides after all.
