I am back!!!!

It has been more than a month now, since my last post. Some of my readers were curious, some were relieved and some were missing my nonsense (as they had nothing better to do than be bemused by my crap).

I had been bereft of thought for a while, lost in my own world. But recently a conversation with my friend provoked my inner writer.



Me(in my usual over-excited tone): Hey!! So whats up Mr. Computer Engineer?

Friend: I so proud of myself, I recently wrote one of my greatest code.

Me: Really? Tell me about it

Friend: If Deepali’s mail > 100 words send it to spam (chuckles shamlesslesly). And guess what I haven’t received a single mail for the past one month in my inbox.

Me: (in a highly exasperated tone) Bakwass!!!! It’s coz I haven’t sent any mail.

Friend (in a playful pitch): Aree….that was just the first part of the code. The second part is….(a prolonged pause) – The code generates radio frequencies which interferes with the intended person’s brainwaves and thus prevents any crappy thoughts. This is the reason why you weren’t able to think of any ..so called gibberish ideas. (breaks into his typical hyena like laughter)

Me: (quite amused): Hmmm…..ok Challenge accepted!!!! I will write, and let’s see if your code works (supercilious expression).

Saying this, I banged the phone.

I dial the number again.

My friend is puzzled, he says “Now what?”

Me: Banging the phone once on you wasn’t enough!!!

I banged the phone again.*giggle attack*

I saw Barney (HIMYM fame) doing this in one of the episodes. Since then I always wanted to do this!!!!! ( I know I am crazy)
So now you know….Deepali is Back with her intellectual Tsunami *wry smile*…so Beware!!!!!! He he he he ha ha ha (boisterous laughter, more intimidating than Archana Puran Singh’s on a laughter show)
