Did I?

This is something that has become so common that it is less of a joke now. I tend to forget what I have written (except, maybe for some posts, but their content too is alien to me) and today I was fetching some links for our friend Musings.. when I stumbled on this free verse. Gosh! not only was it a surprise to me early in the morning, I had a tough time recalling what made me write it. I think it was something to do with the towel once I came out of the bath, but not sure. I frankly do not recall writing it at all. I think it is a case of senile decay!! :-( But the funny part is if the posts surprise me, the drafts surprise me even more. I seem to have as many drafts as published posts and each one makes me wonder whether someone else has the password to my blog, and has been coming over to create drafts!! :-o


As a dear friend tells me, "E, how about reading your own blog!?" :-D

  3. I know what you mean. These days I am accumulating more drafts than real posts :) And for the most part I have no clue when and why I wrote any of those.

    Hi! Eroteme!

    Just been to the comments on "A stray thought"

    Agree with you that it is better to explore Life in all it's hues...I am into many things too.

    Well...just a scrap of paper with some of your scribbles got so many responses...

    Just imagine the deluge of comments if you post all your drafts!!!

    May be some aliens are taking over your blog ...or is it selective amnesia? just kiddin..:)

    Have to hop to that Verse now...

  6. Dear M(TSU),
    But drafts are real posts too... :-) They just aren't real to others, like my friend Travis or the little black with red eyes which followed me up every flight of stairs I climbed (climbed? more like ran) till I was 6! :-) So any clue why we don't remember things? :-)

    Dear P,
    :-)

    Dear Anon-U,
    Well, I'd rather not imagine!! I think I'll post when those posts want to be out in the open!! :-D So did you read the free-verse? :-)

  9. Dear R,
    Maybe I should do so too! :-)

    Dear S,
    I eat nearly all the edible nuts and whether my brain is sharp or not, other parts of me are growing larger and rounder! :-(
