One advantage of having someone else drive me to work, and back, has been the re-discovery of a now long lost habit - Reading. A list of books I was able to savour in the past few months:
Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance (Robert M Pirsig)
Psmith in the City (P G Wodehouse)
Psmith Journalist (PGW)
Leave it to Psmith (PGW)
The Salmon of Doubt (Douglas Adams)
Thank You, Jeeves (PGW)
Right Ho, Jeeves (PGW)
The Code of the Woosters (PGW)
Joy in the Morning (PGW)
The Mating Season (PGW)
In Search of the Cradle of Civilization (Georg Feuerestein, Subhash Kak, David Frawley)
A Study in Scarlet (Sir Arthur Conan Doyle)
Savouring in Progress:
Memories, Dreams, Reflections (Carl Gustav Jung)
How Mind Works (Steven Pinker)
The Trouble With Physics (Lee Simon)
Glimpses of World History (Jawaharlal Nehru)
(As always, the list is here to remind me of what my short term plans are, what I have been missing in life and all that sort of crap. But historically, I have always been short of a meta-reminder to remind me to occasionally look at this reminder and get inspired)
What's keeping me occupied:
Book: Memories, Dreams, Reflections (Carl Gustav Jung)
Music: Mohabbat Turq ki Maine (Talat Mahmood, from "Do Raaha")
