It's been a nice lazy mid-week afternoon. I have been working from home, while recuperating from a bad bout of Viral fever, and Faz decided to join me today.
Each of us plonking away at our respective laptop computers, lounging on the nice, comfortable, made-to-very-specific-specifications sofas (the 2 months of pain involved in the making of these lounging sofas were well worth it!), the occasional cups of tea, the random bits of chatter, the sharing of choice bits of news and reports, the lunching together ... after a long time we've actually spent time together while working. Quite a long time since we shared any working space and even more since we both last worked on the same things.
With Faz now running his own show, and me working an MNC job, our time together is after work unwinding, and nice weekend lazing. No more working on project plans together or wrapping our skulls around customer quirks ; no more haggling on details or fighting over approaches ; no more eating out with our teams and celebrating a job well done.
I like the way things are, but I do miss the way they used to be :o)

sometimes, it is nice to take a break and rediscover things :) nice to know that u had a good time :)
Such new tracks in life also recharges us a great deal. Good to see you having a nice time.
I don't know whether to applaud the "No more working on project plans together or wrapping our skulls around customer quirks ; no more haggling on details or fighting over approaches ; no more eating out with our teams and celebrating a job well done." I ope someday to have my own gig, but I am sure gonna miss working within a team and the comfort of an MNC Job:D
--xh--, Pradeep : Absolutely!
lady namu : all I can say is enjoy it while you can! As fulfiling as it is to have your own show, it is quite frustrating sometimes since that buck does stop at you :oD
