Yesterday I slept at around 3:15 am, and today I woke up at 10:30 am. There was supposed to be a call that time, but it was postponed to 12:30 pm. Within this time, I had my breakfast, watched some TV (found out that the AIEEE paper leaked, and the exam was postponed by 3 hours) and then started watching another online episode of CSI:Miami. It was 12:30, and so I joined in to the conference call where we were discussing the issues and solutions to that, but suddenly I got dropped off the call because of bad internet connection. I guess there is too much load on MTNL's broadband connection in our society as everyone is home and using the net abundantly. Anyways, this hiccup forced me to kill the tab where the CSI:Miami episode was fully loaded. As expected, the net was working fine after that. I joined in again, and the call started again, but soon Gil's internet connection gave away and he too got dropped off. So, the call ended at around 1:45 pm, and we waited for Gil till 2:00 pm.Well, he never came back, but most of the issues were clear, and hence I told Ankit that I will work on the old version and later copy paste the work in the new version. It was not very late till I realized that the changes and additions are too many. I took a deep breathe and started working. I ate my lunch quickly at around 2:45 pm, and continued working, without a care in the world. Well, soon it was 4 pm, I wanted to watch the match between Rajasthan and Pune, so I disconnected from the net, and took my laptop to the drawing room, with the 42" LCD TV. So, the next 3 hours or so I was multi tasking between work and IPL. Pune performed terribly, after getting a very good start, and somehow managed to score just 143 in their 20 overs. Rajasthan were very patient in their chase, and although Pune tried hard to pull things back, a fabulous innings by Ross Taylor crushed their aspirations into million pieces. This win put Rajasthan at the top of the table, but they have played two games extra as compared to Mumbai Indians. At around 7:45 pm, I connected back to the net, and found that Gil had sent the updated version of the project to us. I downloaded all the required files, and started updating the project with my changes. I was deep down into work, and the time flew by. After sometime Ankit sent his updated part of the project, and told me to update my part of the project there. Meanwhile, there was an IPL match going on between Chennai and Deccan Chargers, and since I couldn't disconnect from the net, I started watching it online. So, again I was multi tasking between IPL and work. Chennai played superbly Today, although they started very slow. They were just 96 in 15 overs, but ended up at 165 in 20 overs with some cruel hitting from Morkel, Dhoni and Raina. Morkel hit three consecutive sixes against Ishant Sharma, and two of them went out of the ground ( 88m, 109m, 114m). Deccan Chargers started off in an amazing fashion, but somehow lost their way in the way. All credit goes to some awesome bowling and fielding by Chennai, who pulled the game back from a crisis situation, and ultimately won it by 19 runs. Meanwhile, I had a quick dinner at around 10:15 pm. After that, I started working on consolidation and verification of the project. There were few errors and bugs on the way, but I fixed those and finally sent the project to Gil. Gil thanked me for my effort and asked me whether a 10:30 am call is fine with me. I agreed, and added that I would take it from home, and then head to office later on. He understood my point and agreed. After that, I took another deep breathe and just relaxed for a while. Then I started writing this post. Now, I plan to watch the unfinished episode of CSI:Miami and sleep by 2:15 am.
