No more reason not to blog...

It's 745 pm on Monday 30 May 11. It's the memorial day holiday in the US and just at the end of what has been a pretty good holiday weekend, I have just discovered my next new reason to keep blogging. I recently upgraded from a Blackberry curve to the BB Bold and just a couple of hours ago I figured out how to get past the http 400 error that I was getting on several favorite websites, sometimes as simple as gmail. Ever since I have jsust checked the latest cricket scores on cricinfo, watched a couple of favorite videos on youtube and then I had an Aha! moment. "Why don't I try blogger.com", I thought and it worked. Having been a while since I posted something here and given that I did not have much else to do, I threw myself on my black couch, stretched out my legs on to the center table and decided to do this right away (even as I move my eyes away every now and then from this screen to a larger one where my son is witnessing a replay of the baseball game today between the Philadelphia Phillies and the Washington Nationals).

Honestly, I've been thinking about returning to my blog page for quite a while. The list of excuses for why I didn't can be a post in itself so I'll save it for another day. However, with everything that's been going on in my life, coming back any sooner may have resulted in me only venting and nothing productive. Also I firmly believe that there is a right time for everything in life and now is the right time for this. A good weekend that has livened up my spirit, a BB Bold that let's me go beyond phone and email and all this right on the eve of June.

June is my favorite month. It's a no brainer, I was born in June, but June is also special to me in many more ways. So every year in June I try to do something new, to re-invent myself, include a pep in every step and work really hard. So this year, on top of everything I have decided to do to become a better professional, I have decided to go out and run at least 3 times a week and blog every single day. I did this in the last ten days of 2010 and it wasn't bad at all. Now I'm going to take it up a notch. And what a better time than June to try this. Especially given that I can blog from pretty much anywhere with my BB Bold.

No reason not to blog at all.
