Extolling the virtues of a noise - *gaaaa*

Wikipedia says gaaaa stands for Georgia Alliance of African American Attorneys. I disagree.

I mean, gaaa could stand for Georgia Alliance of African American Attorneys for all the African American Attorneys in Georgia, but for the rest of us non African American, non attorneys not in Georgia- gaaaa is a noise, that does not belong to tamil or english, that my brain conjured up, that other peoples brains can still understand.

Because the noise is the meaning.

Its beauty lies in the timelessness and reasonlessness of its existance, I think- The way it colors itself and sometimes, the entire mangled up sentence that i spew, that its a part of.

When there s nothing to say. When theres too much too say.
When that milk overflows in the cofee mug.
When that street dog is one inch away from your shoe and is flirting with ur shadow.
When you realise you'v actually spent eight thousand all month and not six.
When irctc shows all train tickets booked for one week during,before and after the date that you want.
When you hav a joke about a vacuum cleaner that u want to send to a friend and u dont know how to title the subject.
When you havnt blogged in a long while and dont know what to blog about.

I thank thee, gaaaaa, for making thyself available at all times, in all contexts. For just giving me something to say.

@Ashwin- nonsense is good. so thanks! :)
@Rithvik- Trust me, joblessness has nothing to do with it. Its just the urge to create a web of nensense, and splash around for a while. :)
@Shalini and Sindhu - thanks! :D
