I'm going the extra mile...

and getting stuck in my showroom from 9pm till 6am in the morning. I'm hoping the first phase of aircon refurbishing works will be completed sooner so I can go home and plomp myself into bed. It's now 12.14am and I'm feeling quite drowsy already. Good thing I'm able to volunteer myself for this the night before my off day.

Well I was off today as well. Had a nice long chat with my mum earlier. Missed her dearly. Doctor has been prescribing her some medication for her high blood pressure. A range of side effects began to occur, like swelling of her feet and ankles, and sudden weight gain. I went through all the meds and searched for their side effects on the net. True enough, these were side effects of the meds she's been taking. They were essential for maintaining a lower blood pressure though. I noted their side effects on her medicine packs just to keep her aware of what they could do.

Her bicycle got stolen as well. Gave her $50 to offset the cost of a new one. She would have felt greater agony had not the bike been given to her for free.

Had a chat with my baby girl in Facetime earlier. Miss her sorely. (I'm sorry baby I have to be here and not at home cuddling you to sleep.) How wonderful, being able to communicate face to face like this. I remember how in the early 1990s people in drama serials were superimposing cropped images on watches and cellphones, making it seem like a video call when it's NOT. Now, more than a decade later, it's become reality...

I'm really blogging now because I'm bored.

Welyn broke friendship with me again. I'm not alright with it. In fact I'm quite pissed she chose to walk away from our issue like that. Let's just hope it's just another one of those 'phases' when we don't keep in touch and cool off our heads. There has been multiple phases like this in the course of our 19-year friendship. But this time, she chose to walk away, not me.

Israel chose to free 1027 prisoners for Gilad Shalit. This sucks.

Girlfriend's mum: So when is your big day?
Girlfriend: What?

GF: We're thinking, we may want it somewhere next June. (2012)
GM: AIya, why so early? Never give me enough time to slim down.
Me: Rolls Eyes Dramatically.

Signing off. ;)
