Too exhausted these days

I am really getting tons of work these days; content writing & uploading, one after the other that I get really dog-tired by the time I leave my office. I reach my den at the corner of the city by 6.30pm; but won’t even have the energy to walk. Dragging me towards my room on the third floor, the first thing that I would do is to lie on my bed for some time, eyes closed, letting off the day's official and un-official troubles. By the time I regain the energy to walk, I will have to go through the long tedious process of having a bath.

Honestly, I hate taking baths these days even though I know that it can make me a little more comfortable. The thought of going through the long process of cleansing my body makes me feel really lazy. But I have to, at least for my room mate who won’t tolerate the dust and dirt of the city. She has too much of hygienic sense that at times that I get really pissed off. Someway I will finish off the process of bathing and snuggle myself cozily on my bed but the bell from the mess hall would disrupt my comfort. As we get food only till 8.30pm, I set off to the mess hall to satisfy my stomach.

The next agenda is to call my parents; usual call, usual topics and usual timing.

Had your food?

What did u have? …..etc….

Actually the conversation is almost stored in the database of my mind and hardly needs change.
And now it’s sleeping time. I happily switch off the lights and snuggle down on my pillow, but darling mosquitoes start their action soon. Actually I feel they have become really healthier these days as they never miss a chance to enjoy the flavor of my blood.

After a battle with the mosquito army I wearily drift to sleep by 11 or 12 pm.

The Ultimate Sorrow

NEED FOOD FOR THE FAMILY.
GOD BLESS YOU.
WILL WORK.

This was caption of a placard that I saw today, in a leading English daily.The placard speaks well for itself.Well, I am not talking about begging or beggars, I saw this in the hands of a US resident from Miami, Florida, looking for work. A citizen from the country which is considered the paradise of job seekers is begging for a job to feed his family in time! A really painful sight! But he has no other go when he sees his kids crying out of hunger.

The alarming figures from the labor department will distress us, as we find that the lives of several people have been thrown in to uncertainty, by the devastating global recession, the longest since World War Two. The daunting rise in unemployment rate has made innumerable people in deep trouble. The scary part is that, many economic analysts are saying the worst is yet to come. God! Where’s US heading to? Is the answer clear from the caption of the placard that I saw today? No Idea!!!
