Bustling Day

Today has been one of those busy days, full of email exchanges and planning and what not. Tomorrow we will have our first rehearsal for the music show. Nothing has been prepared on my side. I'll do it tonight. I am also leaving for a conf. later in the afternoon tomorrow. I'll have to pack for that tonight. I will have to help the drummer to move his drum kit tomorrow to the auditorium where we are going to hold our practice. The singers have been notified. I'll audition another drummer this evening. He said that he plays the dolak and the octopad, which will come in handy for the marati and gujarati songs that we are planning. Absolutely nothing has been done about the Bengali song as of now. Will work on that.

Next week, three days I'll be at San Francisco, attending this conference. I'll lose time to work on some important stuff. There is so much work to do, both at work and towards the music show that I am kind of overwhelmed at this point, but I shall not complain because being busy is good. They say that if you want to get work done, give it to a busy person. So, I am assuming that I'll get work done because I seem to be busy. I am writing this blog out of compulsion. It is always good to write. These small articles and essays will amuse me one day, I am sure.

I wrote so many emails today and gave instant replies to the ones that I got. That's something I haven't done in such a long time. These days I've reached a point where I just read the emails and kind of wait and think to see if I should respond. All those spontaneous replies I used to give lasted a little longer after I came out of grad school. Today was the exception. I went back into that mode. I wrote extensively. I feel great about that. You just pour out all your thoughts - whatever comes to your mind and don't worry about criticism.

Lot of work to do, so I'll let my fingers rest here. Will talk later.
