Just as entropic as the brain.<BR/><BR/>That said, the image of you near your sink, soap on your face, squinting and jotting things down in earnest is über cool.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28464200.post-92143287346653838362008-03-20T21:33:00.000+05:302008-03-20T21:33:00.000+05:30sur: send me photos instead of letting me save you...sur: send me photos instead of letting me save your posts on bloglines, okay?<BR/><BR/>km: you too, hanh? i have a thing about diaries. that will be another post.<BR/><BR/>??!: i noticed. :D and...welcome back!Space Barhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08251329008160756254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28464200.post-16659276349779112632008-03-20T21:29:00.000+05:302008-03-20T21:29:00.000+05:30guess who's on net-detox? or was, right uptil then...guess who's on net-detox? or was, right uptil then. damn!<BR/><BR/>....i might as well go blog now.??!https://www.blogger.com/profile/03791417518093723373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28464200.post-65194848312585083252008-03-20T17:44:00.000+05:302008-03-20T17:44:00.000+05:30Lovely post.So you are also a keeper of notebooks ...Lovely post.<BR/><BR/>So you are also a keeper of notebooks in every room?

As it is, I already have 400-something unread messages in my Gmail, and thousands in another mail account I rarely used to open but have had to start using again.<BR/><BR/>Remember (erm.. probably not) the time when subscribing to a list or whatnot meant actually reading, and not to mention, participating?<BR/><BR/>Internet detox should be self-imposed and compulsory every two months, as folks like us no doubt know! But like you say -- what about the thousands of messages that will greet us upon returning to civilization. And *gasp* the truly awful pix on FB from last week's drunk shenanigans which we weren't around to untag?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28464200.post-23448705722624540512008-03-20T09:49:00.000+05:302008-03-20T09:49:00.000+05:30Such fun.

You are now sounding like my mother, who will forget an entire movie the day after she's watched it.<BR/>(And these are lovely old movies, not forgettable ones).<BR/>Incidentally, I'm not much better. I keep planning to at least write down the names of the books I've been reading, but never do.dipalihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01070862196307376073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28464200.post-37319409001902331352008-03-20T09:37:00.000+05:302008-03-20T09:37:00.000+05:30I've got bloglines on my browser.

Which is a good thing, I guess, given your state.<BR/><BR/>As for forgetting, have been a congenital one, ever since I can remember, which is not too long ago.
