It happened last night!

Shameless me! Am back again after my last post where I wrote about "blogging for discipline" and then took off on one of my biggest breaks from blogosphere. And I don't even have a decent excuse, so I am not even going to try!
Am back, after a sleepless night spent almost entirely on Twitter and catching up with some of the blogs and websites I love. In particular, drew inspiration from funny-fab blogger Judy Balan (do follow; she's amazing and can pep up your worst days) and the November edition of SPAM.
No, I am not going to attempt humour... you either are funny or you aren't and if you try too hard you may end up as a joke. I am just very enthused about blogging again... some of you can argue that it's probably cyclical! Come to think of it, maybe I should check out my blog posts to figure out if there's a pattern to my absence.
Again, that's besides the point. And the point is that I have no point to make but I am just glad to be part of this vast, amorphous community of bloggers and social networkers (dunno if that's the term, anyways I mean all the people on my TL and FB) who do sometimes-ordinary, sometimes-bizarre, sometimes-random stuff... and reading all that makes my day! Especially a day, rather night, like yesterday when I couldn't sleep, thanks to body ache presumably associated with a viral fever, and was up till the wee hours.
It was a bad night for TV! Every movie channel was showing wet-rag movies; I think there should be a strict code for movies shown after 11pm: they should be thrilling or edgy or experimental or at the least interesting. Spare me the blah! True that I couldn't sleep but boredom is not a sedative!
Which is when I logged on and found that Twitter was brilliantly, vibrantly alive in the dead of the night and that while I was away 'working hard' my Google Reader had patiently accumulated 1000+ feeds for me to catch up on... so I did just that! And believe me, it was just as great as curling up with a good book.
The long and short of it is, I had great fun online and while that sounds typical nerd-ish, it was so not! And before I sign off, I promise to be back again... soon!

Cheers to the online world. It is a fun place, and though we know them only as 'handles' and 'usernames', they are all fun fun people.
