Twilight Sunday!

1. The open mic had an entry fee of thirty rupees. It had a banner of Madhya Pradesh Hindi Sahitya Unit.

2. The person who invited me to sit laughed hysterically when i told him about the alcohol smell.

3. He had no handkerchief.

4. Parrots are returning to nests.

5. Birds are chirping sweetly. Another twilight comes to an end. It has been an eventful day. Yesterday i couldn’t receive the first rank on vocabulary jams but got a job offer. Today I got a virtual payment of 100 rupees.

6. The PC guy looks like Bourbon and Cigars guy. But like my other romances he will remain anonymous. Bourbon and Cigars was from Japan whereas this guy is from MIT. If i am grateful for company of any people in 2020: it’s these illuminati: PC, Vishnu Ram, Stephen and Claire G.

7. After the marathon i would get time for bowling. I still wear the cap with 232 number and it’s a memory of events which had significance then. Virtual significance.

8. A Tohu Verse to celebrate the twilight:

Preparing For Bundelkhand Marathon 2021 Part Three!

1. I walked and ran for about 90 minutes and kept playing vocabulary jams yesterday evening. Wind was furious and Moon looked pale red. There were four cows and a mule and later, to my surprise, five guys joined who left after spreading some garbage in the name of new year celebrations.

2. I enjoyed playing with PC and Vishnu Ram. It’s an honor to play with such wonderful players. Stephen and Paul were also there.

3. Took some pictures which create a series:

National Youth Day!

I own my images, words and ideas, both here and on Blogger’s World.

4. I can complete marathon even at my normal walking speed. I can walk even a 40 kilometres marathon, therefore winning by running faster is not an issue. It’s merely endurance training.

Preparing For The Bundelkhand Marathon 2021 Part Two!

1. Bundelkhand is a region in middle India. Bundela rulers reigned here. The dialect spoken is Bundeli which also has some literature available on it. Deshraj Pateria who passed away this year used to sing many songs in Bundeli. Since my childhood- educators used to look down upon Bundeli whereas all the people in my locality including paternal aunts and uncles used to speak in Bundeli. This created a conflict: one among a multitude of countless others.

2. I got a candy which was made in Thailand. It was lying at the entrance to the iron pillar. The lion bearing the staff has its tail cut whereas the other one has no staff but tail is intact. It’s a puzzle. Those who know the answer know the mystery signed by Elise and Christophe.

3. I walked and ran for 1 hour 37 minutes. Captured Orion and full Moon.

Full Moon 29122020
Orion
The number 9

4. As i was getting bored i played vocabulary jams as i walked inside Shatabdi. There were four cows and one mule. Later a dog came. There were many cranes. It was a joy to walk on a road where only a few people were present after a long time.

5. Here’s a summary of my scores on vocabulary.com jams:

313251132

First rank: thrice

Second rank: twice

Third rank: thrice

6. I completed reading 27 pages from Aditi and other deities in Veda by M. P. Pandit.

7. I registered 24 titles today.

Merry Christmas to PC, Stephen and Bondboy!

1. Summary of vocabulary jams this morning and noon:

222235231

2. Average number of players playing the game: 10-13 per game. My ID is 12.

3. Interesting: Bondboy Fandashe had many avatars today.

4. I enjoyed playing with PC. PC was top scorer in three of the games. Massachusetts institute of technology. I am coming soon 🙂

5. Dreaming isn’t wrong. It’s an infinite journey. I shall keep trying!

6. Stephen D scored top rank in two games. I couldn’t score a first rank in morning but got first rank in noon.

7. The game with PC, Bondboy and Stephen on Christmas Eve is one of the most memorable moments on vocabulary.com since I began playing jams over there. I missed playing with Claire G.

8. A monk wearing glasses appeared just as i picked the key from hanger and started to walk towards library. After greeting him i asked him about his arrival. He needed dried tulsi manjari to make beads for chanting. I couldn’t find those for him. Madam wasn’t here and i asked others who had no idea. He spoke a bit about 9 gates and present state of law. I told him about the tenth gate which he said is locked. I told him it gets opened by Guru’s grace. It’s open for me else I wouldn’t have tasted ambrosia. We had some discussion before i needed to take his leave.

In the end was the end!

1. Don’t know how it ends. I am happy to have commented on her posts in a civil manner. It’s a success.

2. I received a coin which had 2017 as its release year as i bought the incense sticks. Crackers were bursting nearby.

3. I bowled 50 times. It was easy to focus on catching and bowling to target but slightly difficult to breathe. I still think it’s the smog they create here on a regular basis. I absorb plenty of that air.

4. I sat in the field for a while as Sun was setting. They were going towards a well. I felt relieved after reading her verse. If our communication was as civil some three years ago: i might have been happier. Old debts. How much of energy, time and effort was wasted in merely being lucid in communication. All people speak different languages. Different groups speak different languages. In the end you’re left with your own version/interpretation of reality. It might be stoic or solipsistic or both. The next step towards civility might be to not expect her to read my posts or to acknowledge them. Not everyone is equally attractive/appealing. People have their priorities.

5. There’s not much worth remembering from this day. A rocket was going South as twilight was getting darker. Just besides the Moon. Then a star popped, silently.

6. Did the tall ladies: two of them in a day mean something in particular? I really don’t know. There’s tonnes of irrelevant information i process on a regular basis.

7. The star on Church gate has a pentagon and five triangles. Though i already commented on that: the bulb is not in the middle of the red pentagon. It’s towards lower right end. The Moon on the top of the shaft is tilted : just like the heads of Jesus and Mary.

Fragrance!

1. She retained Kuntal as Kaundal.

2. Her memory of my memory isn’t any better than it used to be.

3. She inquired about the fragrance. As i was returning from the Deendayal Rasoi: the fragrance near the entrance was palpable. They’re all in on it.

4. I registered 44 titles today. The last rack on the ninth almirah should be completed by tomorrow evening: ideally.

5. I intend to do some bowling practice this evening. Watched a bit of theatre rehearsal.

Jabalpur_17122020_Cracking The Code!

1. I merely thought: “she’s born in Jabalpur Madhya Pradesh, not in Bengal or Orisaa.”

2. I once told her that you now belong to this place as you live here.

3. This morning the news becomes all about Jabalpur on Dainik Bhaskar. I also meet a reporter whom I had not seen in two and half years in the Gandhi Smarak Bhavan complex.

4. Not just one: i see too many name plates within a single day: BJP chief to Congress chief to Women Congress chief.

5. AT meeting me wasn’t a coincidence. Neither Vijay Patel.

6. Way too many people in a single day and trimming of branches continues. The North is more visible from the Biotic Farm. I would have stopped to capture an image if I was inspired.

7. Would the reporter disappear like Imran Akhtar Beg or really take my English classes is the question which holds utmost importance this evening.

8. There are many ways to interpret the Jabalpur news flooding on Bhaskar on 17122020.

9. The moment i Publish this post she likes my Instagram picture. The lunch yesterday was organized. Like : changing of catering staff at Deendayal rasoi where a comic performance was held at the point of my entry. Devendra disappeared and another guy appeared in the theatrical rehearsal. The lady who dropped her hair last evening might not be the one who was there this evening. I saw those two hair strands and gave them to her with a joke that those were hers.

10. When i saw Dhaniya on a thela outside Aditi’s street: it occurred to me : it might be about Sammy Jenkins.

Syzygy!

1. Bowled 10 overs. 20 hits.

2. Had some difficulty breathing. The ladies at home burn too much tinder to fill the house with smog. It’s been decades old practice. Might suit you in open spaces.

3. Read and edited some posts.

4. The cement pitch has been cracked open like that patch of sidewalk outside electricity board office.

5. It’s after two days gap i arrive here. Some vitamin number 4. A cat crossed my road after a long time. It went towards West with a thirty degree angle just near the old ITI building.

6. The news is brimming with accidents and traffic jams. Khara maas begins. Khara or Khala means beastly or contaminated. Mala or dirty. It’s the alignment of galactic core with Sun and Earth. Till Makara Sankranti: you have Christmas to celebrate and sleep a lot if they don’t burn wood to create smog.

Sheinkin versus Dickinson!

1. What kind of surname is sheinkin?

2. Is it a distant cousin of Dickinson?

3. Or Dick? As in Phillip K. Dick.

4. Pyaasi is an Indian surname.

Pyaasi means thirsty.

Now: ‘White’ as a surname is not anymore attractive than ‘Thirsty’ but you know. Everyone loves their identity and conditioning. That’s why it exists.

I found surname Sheinkin in one of the vocab jams on vocabulary.com. The author of “Lincoln’s Gravediggers” has this surname.

A Tohu verse:

Yarmulke armistice

Ice very nice

Eyes spies

Latke jhatke jara hatke

Arra lox ox with a fox

Tchotchke hotpotpourri riffraff far off

Livery very veridiasical

Note: these words were culled from various Vocabulary jams on vocab.com

Latke means ‘hanging’ in Hindi. Latke latke : repeated twice means subject performed some action while they were hanging(out.)

Latke in Yiddish is a potato dish.

Words beginning with t?

Tchotchke

Tzimtzum is my favourite.
