We have a comedian at our workplace. One day, during the beginning of my carrier in this place, I asked him if I could check my e-mail from my work computer. He responded, “Go crazy, just keep the pants on”. I didn’t laugh, so he said it again. I just smiled and went back to my computer. He was surprised and puzzled because he expected a big laugh from me like everyone else and he didn’t even see my smiley face. Everyone giggles at his joke, so I gave him a silent treatment…

Library Time
I try to take the kids to a library once in a week to spend some times with the books and bring some books home, so they can read them during the next week. Hopefully, they will build a habit of going to the library on their own. May be one or both the kids will be...
মানুষের মন
বাবার আমেরিকাতে থাকার সুবাদে জানতাম একদিন আমিও আমেরিকাতে আসব। আর আসার কিছুদিন পূর্ব থেকেই স্বপ্ন দেখতে শুরু করি। স্বপ্নগুলো ছিল এমন যে – আমি লিফটে করে অনেক উঁচু বিল্ডিংএ উঠে যাচ্ছি। ইউএসএ আসার পরে অমন অনেক উঁচু বিল্ডিংএ উঠেছি। এমনকি চাকরির সুবাদে ট্রেনিয়ের জন্য যখন...

Last two years we watched fireworks from home, so we went to see the fireworks yesterday at the park about 2.5 miles away from our house. I drove around the park but didn't get any parking, so I double parked on a street next to the park and took a quick video (linked...
When Thoughts Aren’t Private
I just watched the first episode (“Joan Is Awful”) of the seventh season of Black Mirror on Netflix. It was incredibly dark. The story follows how a poor, everyday family falls victim to corporate greed. The premise was chillingly simple: you pay more money for the...
Special Someone
Though I was never cruel to anyone other than using wrong words my softer side was seldom revealed for I never met someone who cared to look under my hard surface. In fact, I never got enough love to open my heart to someone. Most of the times, I was misunderstood, so...
In Loving Memory of Michael Brown: A Neighbor’s Unforgettable Smile
I was shocked to hear that our neighbor, Michael Brown, passed away on May 2, 2024, and even more so to find out only after thirty days had passed. I had gone to see him because I noticed his house was up for sale. I assumed he was moving to Florida or somewhere else...
