The Catcher in the Rye !

Midnight.. 9th june .. as usual i get no sleep.. i wonder why on earth i get to lie awake with my eyes wide open and the lids blinkin 100 times per second while everyone else at home is fast asleep... more thoughts less sleep... ! lol
Well.. i somehow pass my time contemplating absolutely nothing ! At about 3.30 am dads blackberry cries! A set alarm ! He wakes up and im relieved.. Its always like this for insomniacs i guess... when somebody wakes up they feel good about it ! lol.. So i get up too... Dad is startled to see me awake...
I ask him whether shall i make tea for him.. he has this trip to IIIT, Allahabad to give a talk... the flights at 6 or something... he says okei... and i make tea... we didnt call the rest of the members of the madhouse... coz they were oh...so tired..and sleeping ! Dad said no need to call anyone... and i agreed... coz there actually was no need! These trips happened every other day ! So the car comes from CDAC to pick him up, he says goodbye and goes... i lock the door.. and puts on the TV... ! ( That was obvious )
Some movie going on.. i still haven't found out its name... i was about to change but... the words struck me! Oh well.. starmovies have subtitles even though its not required.. but i love them showing the subtitles! U can mostly catch the dialogues word by word.. The dialogues in the movie seemed very deep... and crazy... The protagonist seemed to be like me... always having thoughts in his mind.... i got interested ! I didnt change the channel... And later on, i realised that the movie was about John lennon's murder by his own fan... Mark David Chapman.. and since i liked John lennon and his songs and morever his love for yoko ono.. i stuck to the movie , not changing it!
Sometime later the book in the hands of the protagonist catches my attention... The catcher in the Rye.. The protagonist is obsessed with the child hero of the book... Holden.... He thinks he's holden.. he's got to do something big in this world before he dies... He kills john lennon finally as he set his mind to ! Bcoz he felt "I was nobody until I killed the biggest somebody on earth"
They showed that the lines from the book resonates in the protagonists mind all the time... It made me delusional... i got crazy...! The nuts and bolts loosening up a bit... more due to no sleep and some due to those magical words... i was like in a transcendental state ! I decided to find out whether such a book really exists so dat i can read it and go mad !! what a desire! lol.. I slept at 7 in the morning on 10th... woke up at 10 am.. coz we had decided to watch a movie at 11... went with sis, chindu and frnds... watched the movie.. spent a beautiful day with frnds at museum and nishagandhi.... told about the movie and how i got carried away by the words to rejeesh... we were all lying on the open stage... the blue sky was a beautiful view... After comin back home i searched.. and there it is... The Catcher in the Rye... A 1951 novel by J.D.Salinger.... (based on a mishearing of Robert Burns' Comin' Through the Rye)
Right now i must be totally nuts not to sleep and write about 'The catcher in the rye' at 1 am on 13th june! Well... i told rejeesh about the book...yesterday he asked me to go to DC books, that i might find the book there...
I have to go ! And get the book ! I've never found this urge to read a book so badly............!

Holden: "You know that song, 'If a body catch a body comin' through the rye'?..."Phoebe: "It's 'If a body meet a body coming through the rye'!... It's a poem by Robert Burns."
