The day before today

I hate working on saturdays but the alternative of working today on my birthday was totally abhorrent. So spent the better part of yesterday in office - such are the imperatives of corporate life !!

Its so strange - the most unexpected of people reach out to you on your birthdays. You can sense some of them really feel for you and want to stay in touch - but with what nonchalance you engage in superficial, casual conversation not telling anything of any import and not asking much.

On the other hand there is the yearning to hear some people's voice - u know they won't remember, u know they won't call but u still hope maybe ...
It shouldn't hurt, it shouldn't matter - its just another day ...
Maybe things have changed as for the first time in seven years I forgot too - 29th sep.
