By the End of the Day

RR wrote to me yesterday. He writes to me about twice or thrice a year now, when he wants some doubts w.r.t. his work clarified. And like every time, he tells me that upfront, as if he's warning me. As if. Anyway it was a silly doubt and I was a little upset with him that he was asking me such basic things, after all that work he'd done in the past. But then it was also nice to engage in such discussions because these days in our place it's only about tech. Functional aspect of the product has taken such a backseat that I feel rusted. I miss the daily discussions and arguments that RR and I used to have. It's been almost three years now. At one point of time yesterday, even RR said "They do it this way", then smiled and corrected himself as "We do it this way". Anyway, now he's moved to Australia, may be for good.

Oh yes, the kitchen tap is repaired, temporarily. And it was the plumber who repaired it, of course and not me.

I guess I'm in that phase of my life where both my son and I are a disappointment to each other.
