Wednesday morning and it is the usual routine – get up early and get in to school at an hour as sane as 9:20 am and meet Ron for my weekly meeting. Having just set up my Evolution calendar to do all kinds of neat things like remind me about appointments and other jazz of that kind, I was quite surprised to find why it didn’t buzz about my meeting at 9:30. I sat there saying, “Will it, won’t it” before finally deciding that I needed to catch my appointment 
Stephen later told me that it did 
Anyway so I spent most of the day having an absolutely horrid time with gcj and ending up completely frustrated with it. So I wrote to Frank to see if he could help and well, apparently he had hell with it too. Oh well, if that is a consolation
In the evening it was time to take Vidye to the Cunningham institute in Lenscrafters (Galleria) since it was high time really and we really needed to make sure it was not postponed any further. It turned out to be the usual routine – she has a new set of lenses now and man, do they cost a fortune! Anyway, we had a good time drinking coffee and sitting around near the waterfall, waiting for the lenses to be replaced, as we chatted about a whole lot of things. Vidye was arguably in one of her best moods
The interesting discovery of the day was that Chris, who is my labmate in the DOC Group and like so many of us, has a blog [which I recently came across btw], wrote about the interesting incident of where he and Lucas were wondering where all the music in the apartment building was coming from and I confessed to having been pumping the volume on my new Sony music system Anyway, what surprised me was the chaps had known about my blog for quite some time now and I had no clue – and actually knew that I didn’t know about their knowing ! I demand to know how you got to know Chris !
Anyway, so as I read his blog, I came across somebody whom he called ‘The Other Amy’ and found the whole series of exchanges the two were having via their blogs quite amusing. Keep reporting from the CNN, Chris cause I don’t read it
Okay okay, enough. I better sleep now.
I’ve been reading your blog too!
Ron
Heh, yeah I know
But how in the world did you come across it? All of you guys seem to know about it ! But hey, it is a weblog after all and I hardly intend it to be a secret 
He he, I guess I can reveal my methods. I heard Stephen one day in the lab talking to you about MovableType. One day when I had already read my usual weblogs but still had that itch to read about other people’s lives, I remembered this conversation and typed your name into Google. Sure enough, second link on the page.

Privacy be damned! I wonder where this whole “internet revolution” thing is gonna lead us all … and this *does* have its implications. I mean, there have been times when I put up stuff on my blog and later realized I’d have been happier if it wasn’t really being beamed to the whole planet, and very recently did I learn that a whole bunch of “Anonymous” readers are reading my blog, too. Weird.

I guess you’re more *used* to one style of blogging, spawning off the “activity.html” thingie from miguel. I’m used to a different style. I guess you’re “safer” on that front.
Sometimes I just loathe all technology :*(
Whoah, there are 2 Ravi’s? I think someone needs to institute a “Ravi”/”Other Ravi” policy here
I’m “ravi” (in lowercase) while Ravi is “Ravi” (in mixedcase)
And ya, “ravi” is a fairly common desi name. It just means the “sun” in hindi/sanskrit, and I was named that since I was born on a Sunday, and they decided to honor the Sun. My bro’s “shashi”, which is the moon …
Hmm, I am wondering if I should post comments as RPM
What do you say ?
