A moment of rich irony

The band started a new song. It was from Pink Floyd’s “The Wall.”

Predictably, they came to the all-too-familiar chorus line.

The stage and the audience roared up with “Hey Teacher! Leave us kids alone.”

Precisely at that moment, the one teacher we had in our table – Anannya – decided to get up, join them and proceeded to cut a rug!

Age is showing

Did a 5 mile (8K) run. It was exhausting. Granted there were some hills and it was hot and humid – but the overwhelming reason is that my body is not being able to take this as it used to.

I am wondering whether I should put in the time and effort and see if I can build back to half marathon distances by 2024 end. It is going to take quite some effort. But there is an old saying – What I eat today and how active I stay today will determine my quality of life 20 years from now…
