WORKED HARD.

So it was days before the weekend that I was off.



Then it was Saturday instantly, and I was at work for 14.5 hours. And for that day I wore my Tommy Hil's jacket, TopMan's twisted skinny jeans and their plain buttoned blue shirt, RiverIsland's bucklebelt and that Lacoste that A had given me and that black skinny necktie that I was blabbing about last week.

Things that happened at work last Saturday were:

  • some members of my patient's families came to visit (and Im sure one had farted in front of me)
  • I listened to staff discussions whether it was 2 or 3 or 4 big tubs of BioPot yoghurt their "workmate" had engulfed in one go. Plus how many cows were abused with the number of pints of milk he drinks everyday.
  • Policewoman called me to querry about something and I spoke to a policewoman.
  • Staff asked me why I am wearing a necktie though I dont have a collar. But this I've learned to ignore. I always get this because I work with "mature" staff. They still think World War 2 happened last week.




Then I slept, and woke to a Sunday, we watched "the Eye" DVD in the morning (actually A was watching Olympics in the bedroom, but I became hysterical and made a scene coz I wanted to watch DVD instead so A was forced to watch it in the lounge with me; I cover my eyes if I watch horror, so I needed A to describe to me what was going on.) and I went back to work for the afternoon.

For this I wore my FCUK jacket, TopMan's red leather tie, TopMan's scruffy shirt, TopMan's bootcut jeans, and Doc Marten's boots.

Again my staff asked me why wear necktie when I dont have a collar on,

and I reminded them that World War 2 happened more than half a century ago.






Then I slept and awaken to a day called Monday; I went to the gym in the morning and I still decided to be at work in the afternoon.

A texted me and said our inspector is in their Care Home doing the annual inspection (so that gave me an idea that we will also have an inspection pretty soon in our Care Home because our Care Homes are in the same zone).

I texted A back "what is she like" (coz she's a new inspector).

A texted back "she's nice coz she is always laughing."

I texted back "always laughing? What's nice with that? I always laugh but staff call me mean".

A did not text me back.

That day I wore that small TopMan shirt and their skinny jeans but not the twisted one (I did not eat for two days so I could wear them). Other things that happened to me that day:

  • Boss and I became investigative journalists.
  • I received 4 compliments for wearing that shirt
  • 2 staff called me "bony"
  • 1 staff argued that I really take tablets to lose weight. I told her that the only tablet I take is to lose my insanity.
  • 6 staff saw me inspecting myself in the mirror.




Anyway, I still have to receive my router from Netgear. I dont mind at the moment really, my laptop is accessing the net still via my neighbour's ("sh--n-") network (I told A that the owner of that network is now my new bestfriend but she doesnt know it yet, which anyway is good for the 2 of us). The only thing that I have been missing is watching ABSCBN coz its license is in my desktop, and that one is not wireless.



Au Revoir.

ei, thanks. everything's fine. ayoko magpacomment sa post na iyon kasi ayaw ko marining ang mga sasabihin ng ibang tao tungkol sa family ko. kahit tama man sila o kahit maganda man ang sasabihin nila. hehe. ayaw ko lang marinig. anyway, seryosong thanks for dropping by. thanks din sa pangungumusta.

[I listened to staff discussions whether it was 2 or 3 or 4 big tubs of BioPot yoghurt their "workmate" had engulfed in one go. Plus how many cows were abused with the number of pints of milk he drinks everyday.]

Ang saya saya naman ng pinag-uusapan nila.

[Staff asked me why I am wearing a necktie though I dont have a collar. But this I've learned to ignore. I always get this because I work with "mature" staff. They still think World War 2 happened last week.]

Akala ko dito lang ang mga tanong na tulad ng, "Bakit nakatsinelas ka? Pupunta tayong mall.". Parang ang gandang sagutin ng, "Huh? Akala ko saan tayo. Teka magga-gown ako."

[I texted back "always laughing? What's nice with that? I always laugh but staff call me mean".]

Akala ko dito lang hindi 'ordinary' ang laging nakatawa. [So Opaw ay laging nakatawa. Hindi daw ito normal sabi ng iba...].

Bon au revoir.
