Did you ever wish that you had some magical power? A power that would have people a little petrified of your presence?? Gone are the Harry Potter days where if you uttered the words "Expecto Petronas" people around you would scurry for cover.This is the new age, the age of a influenza virus commonly known as swine flu!!
I have cold today, have been sneezing a bit and voice sounds a bit husky(I treat this as the best part of having a cold..I like my voice like this!)...and I have been able to successfully send people (friends and foe included)...atleast a few feet away...the fear in their eyes ... the doubt in their mind in my presence...it feels wonderful...For those of you after reading this, want to recommend me to a dear psychiatrist of yours, shoo away.I am thoroughly enjoying this! I am the chosen one (:p).
Added to this the guys at my office, have been pushing out mails that "Prevention is better than cure" for this virus. And to show that they care, they have placed hand sanitizers and charts showing us how to wash our hands (like we needed it to be shown to us in 5 easy steps with images for God's sake). Yes, I agree, us software engineers are the geeky lot who don't move a inch from their seats and know nothing outside their virtual world, but let me tell you we know how to wash our hands!!! At the same time that we are being treated to this new found piece of knowledge our AC guys didn't want to be left behind. They took this opportunity to show off their ware. They have reduced the temperatures to such lows, that this is forcing me to think that sitting and working outside in the rain would also not cause me to catch a cold as sitting in this AC would.
Hmm, so all things aside, this is for all of you, take good care of your health and have a good time ahead. Me off to have a good cup of steaming hot tea. Nothing like tea to kill the virus.

ReplyDeleteI dreaded to read your blog expecting another "lecture" bot swine flu. but this was fun to read;)
ReplyDeleteWhen did I give you a lecture about it in the first place that you were expecting another ;) ??
ReplyDeleteDear Ash, you don't need to have flu (swine or not) to terrify people around you. People gets scared when they see you coming towards their cubicle... I have seen many victims praying to god to give them enough wits to stand against you in an argument. I still remember their petrified faces...
