Mar 5 – Lazy Day

Met Y.Nee on MSN, kesian, she only had ‘pao’ for lunch…all her colleagues went out for lunch. We made her join us for late lunch. After lunch, Meow busy on his pc downloading MP3s while I tried to zzz…didn’t really sleep coz the music volume too loud…as I mentioned before, I am a light sleeper…managed to catch a wink or two. He joined me for a short nap.

No mood to go anywhere…after dinner, went back to my place. Dad asked me to help with his presentation slides. No choice…for a while, I become the good daughter, checking on the fonts, aligned those wordings and charts, draw tables, arrows, shift here and there, scratch here and there (this one for my legs, walau eh, those blood suckers having great time on my legs, I think they know I cannot move my legs with the notebook on my lap).

While I was busy ‘touching’ and clicking…touch the touchpad la…and of coz scratching my leg with my toes…hands occupied ma…Ron my dog, spat out a big fat dead rat (almost the size of my heels – size 8) on the patio. He damn ‘hao lian’(show off), standing and looking at three of us, waiting to be praised. This is the second rat he caught within a month. Meow said Ron is doing the job of a cat as well. Dad rewarded Ron with pet biscuits…complimenting Ron “Waa..yr sis and mom also couldn’t cat it, not even yr dad, good boy…good boy”. Not fair ler…I said “Of coz they cannot catch la, 3 of them at the back…rat also won’t go near them la”.

No time to pat Ron yet, have to fast fast drag here and there, resize, bold…legs damn itchy liao….finally slides done, 1am already. Reheat the Laksa we ‘tah pao’ earlier…ya ya…I know, eat again. Meow loves Laksa…and we couldn’t get Laksa around our area at nite, had to make do with the not-so-yummy-laksa from the food court near my house. Oh, speaking of the food court, the famous AKI Pancake moved to Supertanker at Lip Sin liao…that will be bad for the food court but no problem for me, we frequently eat at Supertanker hawker centre.

Of coz, too full to sleep, I forgot what I was busy with, but Meow wanted to read my diary, any diary from last time. Managed to dig one out, 1996. Mostly about my classes and 1st ex. That time Sako (3rd Aunt) forbade me to ‘pat thor’ (date) with 1st ex, scolded la, slapped la (coz I went out with my 1st ex)…it was really a trial for my relationship with him. 1st ex not rich ma…aunt dun like him…and even though that time I already 20yrs old, to her and my dad, I was still too young to date. Sigh…dun wanna write too much about past la. Dunno why Meow’s so interested to know about my past…I hope he won’t get too jealous. So far, I am glad he still treats me the same. I fell asleep around 4am.

Woke up around 5am, go toilet…bladder weak ma…aiyaya ..Cockroach !! 2nd one liao…earlier Meow almost stepped onto one. I think maybe the wife came looking for dead hubby. This time no one to help me, Meow in dreamland already…luckily I not yet start pee leh…I jumped so fast, I think Mr Croachy did not realize my presence. I grabbed one of my aerosol cans (got 2 cans in my room, not kiasu yeah, but damn scared of that pest!), **spray… spray….spray** eeeyerrrr….six-legged pest still crawling…more ** pssssssssttttttttt…..pssssssssttttttttttttt ** (sorry Mother Nature, this one no choice, I am not like Alphonso,
got time to prepare his weapon some more. Finally, it went topsy-turvy and looked like ‘chao kan’, phew !! Enough of cockroaches within 6 hours !! Back to zzzzzz.
