DAY 714

The pain in my knee is too much but that never stopped me from Cricket yesterday. The passion for the game helped me more to go on than the pain to stop me. This proves that pain cannot stop you every time but… Ouch!! It hurts a lot.

Today we had a bit of fun in the office. One of my colleague, she was getting messages from an unknown number for the past few days & today we decided it attack back. So first my other colleague messaged that person & then I did. I kept the conversation funny even though I had some abusive messages from the other end but my reply was always funny. While we were thinking who the person is as during the SMS conversations, we discovered that the person actually knows all of us; one of us did point her out. Her?? Yes, an ex-employee who hates us a lot & as she has nothing else to do so all she can do is play around. She was even sending threatening messages but in the end, she end up losing while she called us “the losers”. Oh yes! The SIM is now blocked. So now, let’s think… who lost? :)

At the moment we are playing a prank with a friend who thinks his mobile is lost but in actual it is hidden by a colleague & he is now running around the office for his BB. No! Not Benazir Bhutto but Black Berry. Poor guy I would say but soon he will enjoy this himself or maybe he will call us names… I wonder what he will call me? Oh! But I did not do anything. It was her… Her?? Yes! This is another her not that one I was talking about before. This is that her who was getting threatening messages from that her. Oh! Too much confusion :)

DAY 713

Someone asked me yesterday if everything is fit in life. I was looking at the sky at that time & wondering if everything is fit. I really don’t remember my exact answer but I must have lied saying, yeah all is fine. To be very honest, nothing is fine in life so how come all be fit. Sometimes we all pretend that all is fine & put a mask of smile on our faces but deep inside it is us who know that all is scattered & it’s hard to gather all back in one place to bring your life back on the track. Life is never easy & nowadays it would be hard for anyone to say that everything is fit in life. Maybe there are some lucky people out there but no, I am really not one of them or not even closer. So next time if someone will ask me if everything is fit & if I say yes, do remember that I lied.

So who has cursed me? Someone must have. For the past few days everyday I get hurt. Yesterday a lady without watching behind just opened the door of the car & hit my hand. Today I accidentally touched the hot engine of my own bike & ouch…. that hurts. Even yesterday while playing cricket & running I had a muscle ache in my leg. Wow! What else I want. Yes! All is fit :)

A family member had to appear in an exam (Practical) yesterday & she got confused in the timings & coz of that we were late. We reached there at almost after 2 hours when it was all about to finish. The minute she noticed she was late, she started crying & cried too much. The way she cried was giving a impression of someone close to her had died. Anyhow we took a chance & went to the examination hall. There she lied & she killed her grand mother who has already passed away. They believed her coz of her red eyes & as she was shivering. So this went lucky of her & a lady teacher supported her, helped her by all means in the exam & when she came out she was relaxed & happy. Now! Have you seen someone happy on a death? I did. After that I asked her, so who do we have to kill for the next paper? :-)

DAY 708

Last night was a strange one. After a long time I was not been able to sleep. 3 people at the same time hurt me. Wow! That is a good sign. So this proves that I am important otherwise why would anyone bother to waste their time hurting me. Well! Let them hurt me as much as they can. Every time I get hurt, I get strong & stronger just like Popeye eating spinach :)

So I did try my best but I could not sleep last night. I kept myself busy watching Source Code (Movie) & Primal (Movie). I even kept myself busy on Facebook. So yes I did mange to spend the night with open eyes.

The morning was beautiful. I mean the weather was beautiful. In fact, it is still beautiful. Light drops of rain & cloudy sky makes it more beautiful. Hope to have the weather around for a long time.

One of my friends keeps asking me the same question that when I will get married. Every time he starts the conversation, the first question is this. Now, how come I tell him that it’s not that easy. Best things come around one in a life time & the time is yet to come or maybe never. So my dear friend, if you are reading this, keep asking the same question & keep getting the same answer. Either you will stop asking or I will stop answering. Now let’s see who wins :)

Next weekend we will be having a long 4 days off & after that again 3 days off weekend due to Royal wedding in UK. Wow! This is good. They get married, we get a day off. They die, we get a day off. So every time when they are in miseries, we get a happy day off. Hope to have more & more. I wonder when these Pakistani politicians will die like the current President so we can have another wonderful day off. Hope to have 3 :)

What a game I had today. Hat-Trick again. Wow!!! I can easily say that today was my best bowling in the office so far. I think I should keep myself awake every night. At least I get the wickets :-).

DAY 706

For the past few days I was not been able to concentrate on my blog as when ever I planned to write, I found myself with no words. So I kept skipping the days on the blog. I wish we could actually do this in real life. Don’t like a day? Skip it & move on to the next one.

My whole body is in pain for the past 2 days especially my legs. We have been playing cricket in the office & for the past 2 days, we played a little more than my body was expecting. As I have been out of daily exercise since long, my body was not in a position to accept huge excess of it.

So now 3 people in the office are having mutual feelings of pain. The pain is too much and I cannot sit, cannot climb a stair & if sitting then can’t get up but still I want to play the game. Cricket has always been like a passion for me. Yesterday I had my first hat-trick in the office. In the office it was my first, otherwise I had 2 more hat-tricks previously back in Saudi Arabia when I was part of a team. The joy of a hat-trick is always beyond words. So I cannot explain it but what I can really do is apply Iodex on the affective parts of my leg so 'Pain should not come in the way of my life' & keep playing the game.

I wonder why they call it a hat-trick in cricket when a bowler is not even wearing a hat? Any bright ideas? Well! Even if you have, keep it to yourself coz they are not going to change the word anyway.

DAY 700

Yesterday was cool. The day created our house into a zoo. My cat gave birth to 4 more cats & now we have 7 cats in the house. 4 new born baby cats were cute but mostly black in color. Although the real colors will appear once they grow a bit more. One of them is black & white. See we still have black & white things around in the house although it is age of colors.

Cricket craze in our office is now on its peak. Almost everyone was involved in it yesterday except our boss. We don’t want him to play. It is always insulting to take his wicket. No! Not for us but maybe for him. Regarding others, almost everyone plans how to play the game. Wow! I am one lucky guy. How many of you out there get a chance to play cricket in the office almost everyday?

Tomorrow is Friday & will be a brilliant day for US bank robbers. According to a report Bank robberies in US take place most often in mid-morning, on Fridays, according to government statistics released on Tuesday. So let’s start celebrating “Robber day” every week.

Recently a video is becoming popular of a man arrested for eating dead bodies in Bhakkar (Punjab, Pakistan). Wow! Don’t let people live & don’t let them die in peace as well or should I say pieces. That is disgusting. What the hell is going around? Oh! Damn, sometimes even I am speechless of these kinds of incidents...

DAY 698

Since the Pakistani Team lost the semi finals, I & my office colleagues have started playing cricket in the office after we finish our work. It is time to bring new talent in the ground :). It is kind of fun & entertaining thing to do for an hour or so. The good part is that a friend of mine don’t let me ball whenever she is batting. Well! Am I that danger? No! I am one normal harmless person :). They even say every time when I take the bat that now I will stick to the wicket for long… “Get him out”. So they don’t want me to play :) but I love it anyway. It always gives me a pleasure to hold the bat again. I was a good player long time back when I had my own Cricket team in Saudi Arabia & yes one of the best teams to be very honest but then due to politics in the game, I left the team & almost after 7-8 years I took the bat in my hands again when I was in Tando Adam with my cousins & yes I really enjoyed that moment. In the office, we are not playing with the real bat or the real ball. We use a file as the bat & a paper ball. Yes! I know we are intelligent people. It’s a good thing we do that. Otherwise we would have broken monitors as well as injured people lying around the office floor. We will be shifting to another venue soon & then I think we will not have the space to do all this. I will be missing this then.

A moron known as Terry Jones “Pastor” burned the Holy book “Quran” and posted the video on internet. Well! Moron is not the right word to define this non human thing so I will keep my blog clean as possible but yes I can call him nothing but a bustard. Oops! I said it. After he did what he did, the US government did not make any statement against this act nor any action was taken but when a few UN members died & some other Americans were killed in Afghanistan, they have now come out with a statement saying that he did what he did and we do not want to give him any importance but what was done in Afghanistan is shameful. Oh! Yes it is. So go ahead & sue them.

Oh after the previous joke, let me tell you another one. ICC has confirmed a controversial decision to slash the 2015 and 2019 World Cups to just 10 teams, despite widespread objections. On this I actually like the heading of Wisden Cricket magazine which is “Why would you want to take the world out of the World Cup?” This is really unfair with the rest of the teams. Every team should be given a equal chance. This game does not belong to a single country or a region or maybe this is not a game anymore. It is more like business. Small teams are not good for match fixing as they do not help the bookies in making any cash. So why keep them there? Yes! Kick them all & play all alone. They should remove the word “WORLD” From the World cup. Make it a tea cup or ICC cup…

DAY 697

So after 28 years India was handed over a fake World Cup trophy as they were the winners of ICC World Cup 2011. India was really good in the tournament and yes they deserved it but a FAKE trophy?? This was really shocking news. According to the Indian media, the original trophy is in the custody of the Mumbai customs who levied a tax of Rs2.2 million on it but the ICC in a bid to avoid any tax gave away the fake trophy to the Indian team after winning the final. This is really bullshit. Although ICC has rejected this news saying the trophy is the original one. I wonder was it the crazy media that without confirming started all this or is it really the truth.

It was sad to see Pakistan loosing the semi final which the team could have actually won but I think the team wanted to keep the record of losing a match against India every time in a World Cup. I did predict that day that who ever win the semi final would win the finals coz the moral of that team would have been so high that it would be nearly impossible to beat that team but it’s cricket & anything is possible.

The weather has changed here in this city & I would say it is a wonderful weather out here. Rain shower with cool breeze makes it awesome & romantic but sadly me sitting right here inside the office & cannot enjoy it.

Today my mom called and thanks God she is safe & sound, fine & back in Saudi Arabia. Hope to meet her again this year or perhaps next but I had some really great moments with her a month back. Come to think of it, it has already been a complete month since my visit to Tando Adam & that horrible train experience. Next time I will take the train again. Yeah! Love to have some more horrible moments in life.

35 days so far & young doctors are still on strike in Punjab as they want a salary increase & they don’t care if people die or not. For them, it is just money then. I wonder have they ever thought that coz of their strike how many patients would have suffered or how many would have died? No… Why would the think of that? What more important is the salary increase. Let them die. We have to reduce the population anyway. It is already getting out of control so I think this is one other way to do it. Drone strike is also in process but we need to do it a bit faster. Regarding these so called doctors, they should be hanged or their licenses should be cancelled as they do not deserve this position.
