@ G$'s Abode

It was relief to know that G$ wasn't down & out. Had been to his place in the evening. Susk made finding his place an utter fiasco. Anyways we sat around, talked abt 'paras' yet to be commited & getting Susk drunk. Jenny & her mom were playing an odd looking card game. She said it was something along the lines of Patience. G$'s orangey cat made its presence known by going around the den a couple of times stopping at my foot twice. It had a nice soft coat & didn't resist in any manner when I stroked its head. Cool Cat!

Preparations for the IBM try out has started earnestly. I feel a lot is riding on this interview. MEL (Maya Embedded Language) looks too daunting. G$ says don't sweat it as the guys at IBM r clueless as anybody else in the world. Hope thats true. I still can't figure out why IBM is looking for animators. Kittyal Kitti, Alangil Chatti! (Roughly translated from Malayalam : If u get it, u got it, otherwise clay-pot).

Earlier this afternoon I had met up w/ Srikanth. Conversation drifted over to forms of Idol Worship by religions that r against Idol Worshipping (as if we didn't have anything else to talk abt!). In their defence I came up w/ a definition for an Idol -

" An idol is a physical manifestation of a mnemonic representing the abstract concept titled God.". How fucking smart.
