Accounts... blech!

Anyone who knows me well.. knows of my overly strong affinity for numbers... NOT!!! (Get it.. get it!?!)

I sure hope so.. or otherwise you're on your way to be being voted even more of a tubelight than i am... and trust me... i can give good ol' Philips a run for its money when it comes to that ... or so i've been told :)
Its just... well.. there are soo many thoughts whizzing through my head at any given point in time, its tough to keep track of silliness people throw at you... (yeah i know ;) GOOD save :)

Anyway... my precious Saturday.. one of the only two non-working days i have during the week was spent with my media agency's acounts rep in the PTV Accounts office.. while the two of held our heads in our hands and tried desperately to figure out what happened where and how.. in between we would pause to count the new white hair that sprouted from our heads thanks to the convovulated accounting practices we were faced with..
The PTV accounts department ppl were really nice and sweet.. I think they'd all been there for more than 25 years and nothing fazed them... a couple of million wrongly billed in some account was reversed and recharged without so much as raising an eyebrow.. they were supremely helpful and i was quite delighted...

Their office was so peaceful... i mean the work was continuous ... but it was done in peace... and quiet... i guess because everyone left there was relatively secure.. these gentleman literally know contract numbers and program names like they would know their kids names... It was such a beautifully peaceful feeling.. the high ceilinged room with one fan.. and it was still nice and cool... people quietly rushing in and out... but quietly :)... it was beautiful and surreal... the last time i felt that way was in my dads office in Dera Ismail Khan... he was the commadant of the CMP School at the time.. and his office was right across the street from my school... the entire DIKhan cantonement area was like a one hour walk with the river Indus running on the east end... and you could get the best damn samosas made by the Officers Mess... and it was ... safe.
There was a peace there that i kinda felt today...maybe its a government office thing... i dunno... my office is loud, rushed, always running around :)... a constant fight against chaos... today was so different... i felt like i was sleep walking but was supremely awake..

I think i would like visiting them again soon :)
Just watched the last Series Finale of Dawson's Creek. Now i feel old. When that show started back in 1997 it was a generation x classic... the biggest thing to hit Teen tv since Beverly Hills 90210... and now its all over.. within the past 3 weeks i've watched more series finales than i care to count. Thats another sign of time catching up with you ... when shows that started in your childhood suddenly come to an end.. and leave you there feeling like you lost a peice of your childhood along with them... Roswell, X files, Friends, Buffy, and now Dawsons Creek... I was truly left feeling a tad bit dissatisfied that Joey didnt end up with Dawson.. and instead chose Pacey.. i mean Pacey could've been with anyone.. he didnt really care.. but Dawson was like incomplete without Joey.. i mean they kept saying they were soul mates and then were ok when she chose Pacey instead. I didnt get it...
Actually in real life i wished Katie Holmes and Joshua Jackson would rediscover themselves and end up together like they started out in the first season on DC... but shes with Chris Klein and happy and apparently about to get married.. so hey hope shes happy... yeah yeah so i watch alot of E!... It must be weird for all these kids to suddenly have to say good bye.. it must be painful... its like graduation.. its like moving on... and its sad..
With your own blood you know you'll always make the time to meet up... but there isnt any guarantee with others... except best friends coz they are also family.. so when you leave family you cry less... but when you leave strangers you cry more because you know your chances of seeing them again are much less and its sad...

I need to sort out my story books... love em.. but must discard the ones that are not top notch re-readable... :) take care all
