The blue sky

Yesterday I suddenly decided to not be connected to the wi-fi all the time when I am working at home and it was really a quiet and nice experience. The messages on whatsapp were not popping all the time and the mails landing in the inbox, be it important or not were not bothering me at all. I felt like going back to the early 90’s where the phone was used just to call and message each other and smartphones were not known.

The Sun god is very angry this summer. Beginning mid-March he has surpassed his own record of shining and giving heat, at least in the capital of Karnataka, Bangalore. I came to Bangalore in January 2015 and since then this is the first summer which really has broken all the previous records of highest temperatures in an otherwise cool city. Temperature this year has touched 41 degrees where Mumbai is at 31 degrees only.

Our next blog marathon was supposed to start yesterday, from Monday 26.04.2016. My friend John had asked me about it on Friday itself and I had happily agreed without thinking whether I will be able to do it or not. I took my writing skills and my brain for granted.
