Work, weekday, weekend and the car hunt

Its been quite sometime since I wrote here. Yes, you guessed is right. Work. As I had mentioned in one of my previous post, we have a milestone around this week. Most of the work from my end has been done well in advance. Except for a few minor hitches, everything is going on smoothly. But the last couple of days have been kind of hectic. And, the next couple of days would be hectic too.

This weekend was pretty lazy and relaxing. My car-hunt is on. Finding it very difficult to find a decent car. On saturday, we had been to Johnson City (around 15 miles from Kingsport) to see a car. Before going, I had checked with the seller on the condition of the car, the vechicle history etc… The car was supposed to have a little hail damage., and the seller told me that he was the first owner of the car and the car had a clean history.

We did manage to see the car, but could not meet the seller. He wasn’t there!! He had told us that he would be around!! But we did manage to get the VIN number. Came back, did a carfax check on the VIN number only to find that the odometer of the car had been rolled back! No wonder the car had low miles on it! besides, the car has already had 3 owners! So, the hunt continues….

Sunday, saw Taxi No 9211. Timepass movie. Nothing special. Two characters all bent upon screwing each other. No storyline……….nothing. I am just wondering about the fact that there is a page at wikipedia for this movie. LOL!!!

Also saw the award winning movie ‘Crash‘ (Official Site). Was good. Some scences were very touching. Would rate around 8.5 on a scale of 10. Oh. Yes, I subscribed to blockbuster.com online.

Short weekend?

Somehow the weekends seem to be too short!. Again a relaxed weekend. Got up extra late on Saturday. Everything was delayed ;) ..from breakfast to lunch. i.e., breakfast was at 12 noon and lunch at 4 pm :)

Evening, we had invited my colleagues from my old department home. Was a small get-together at our house. We went out for dinner to ‘The Village’. Had a nice time in general.

Sunday again turned out to be a lazy day. Read lots of pending posts and could clear almost all important unread posts on bloglines.

Hectic week ahead. Good thing is, there is a holiday midway for Ganesha Chaturthi on Wednesday.

Back to work now!

One more weekend got over..

The weekend got over pretty soon. Don’t know why the weekends get over sooo soon !!! (don’t you think so??) ….. Slept a lot……….aaaaaaah…. got up late on both the days. The weather is pretty good now in Mangalore. Its pretty cold in the mornings (I mean, cold by Mangalore standards), and I don’t feel like getting up at all in the mornings:). So, made best use of the opportunity over the weekend.

Was at home both the days.. Played a game called Air Xonix over the weekend. Simple Xonix clone, but a 3D one. Pretty addictive. Sunday evening it wasn’t raining, so we decided to go to the beach. Had a nice time.

Oh yes, the people who hacked my site did come back to see what’s up!!…… They did try to access the files that they had uploaded (back door) , but mostly got a 404 file not found.

Back to office today. Catching up with the new stuff !
