ek tankak ki aatmakatha

It has been the third straight day that I have had to do an all-nighter, typing away to glory.

So I feel like what in Ranchi was called a Tankak- which is Hindi for typist.

Last night, I started typing at 2.15 and to my amazement had typed 17 pages by 5.30, all formatted and ready to go.

The few hours that I do get to sleep during the day are usually spent in dreaming that I am using the lappy's optical mouse.

I bathe only on alternate days (shucks, I am ashamed of myself). And the bath usually takes place sometime around 4 am.

I keep losing my water bottles and I think I have been thirsty for more than 24 hours now.

And yes, I think I have developed the carpal tunnel syndrome.

I hate to do a post full of so much self-pity, but I realllllly am tired.
