Back to Writing

Back to Writing

It is very sweet and thrilling for me as I am back to begin writing on this blog. I am aware that you people would have got annoyed with me because there was a long silence on my part.

Nevertheless, I must tell you that the reasons behind this silence were genuine. But dear readers, don’t think that I am going to bore you by telling those reasons! So before we get on, please accept the heartfelt apologies of this small blogger for taking such a long break.

Sometimes it happens with me that all of a sudden a topic pops up in my mind and I start talking on it. To my curiosity, for the moment I am in a mood to talk about the weather.

Kindly note that ‘weather’ is (W-E-A-T-H-E-R) which relates to meteorology (the science of atmosphere). People who use screen readers tend to mix this ‘weather’ with (W-H-E-T-H-E-R) which is used with ‘or’ when there are two options.

I clarified this presuming that people like me would get confused whether I am talking about ‘weather’ or ‘whether’!

I enjoy all the seasons (often even the hated Indian summers). Mind you, in the West if you say ‘Indian summers’, it will mean "a time of warm weather which happens in early autumn." And they thoroughly enjoy it!

This idiom also refers to a successful or pleasant time of someone’s life, especially when one is very old. So we can say “Our octogenarian grandmamma is in her Indian summers because kids love and fondle her a lot.” By the way, ‘octogenarian’ refers to people who are in their eighties. Caught?

To my joy, this part of the year is my favourite because spring is on and there is a joy of change in the air. In winters I kept on craving for romance but pitiably there was no one to talk with. Anyway, I have kept my fingers crossed that in the near future I will get that special someone who will make a lovely company. A lovely green parrot. Aren’t parrots romantic?

I am not kidding you!

New plan

To carry out our day-to-day tasks it is necessary to have a general understanding of business terms. So I will post them here.

Methinks technical glossary too is something we should be updated with because many a times it happens that a word or phrase crops up here and there and we are left on guesses and ideas to find its meaning. So of course there will be some stuff on the web which would be very beneficial for you. And those who are planning to carve a niche on the World Wide Web would definitely find it amazing. ‘Carving a niche’ means making a position.

Two idiotic girls just intruded here and coloured me. Now I have to go asking how to clean this colour. Several folks are threatening me outside...getting a joyful fear! It is Holi! Happy Holi to you all!!!
