Today has got to be the laziest I’ve ever been. Woke up at 8, did my usual stuff (procrastinate everything else and just surf the net and waste time), had a late lunch, then took a 3-hour nap, and woke up at 7 pm.
7 pm I was on my jimmies still but I felt like the day was just beginning. I realized I haven’t had coffee yet, so I rushed down a pack of instant joes and some bread at the local convenience store. Mind you, the nearest Starbucks is 6 4 LRT stations away, roughly 8 blocks from my building. Oh well, there are days that are worth the walk.
Having one at 7pm did not seem like a good idea.
I bought a newspaper.
People looked at me strangely. Went back up and had breakfast. Coffee and a Nutella comfort sandwich and started reading the paper as it should be read on a Sunday morning.
There is something funny about newspapers here. Breezed through the columns, and found nothing remotely interesting. The writing is absolutely terrible. People tend to fuss about mundane things, and there isn’t really anything substantial between the lines. The front page shows a Sing version of Hitch, because apparently Sing has its share of dating woes. Oh well.
My mood suddenly brightened up when I saw the mock horoscope page. On Virgo, it said “Because the stars deem that your future needs a makeover, your horoscope had been italicized”. I just had the best laugh.
Loved the Dilbert clip too. And it was an altogether good pick-me-up, so I thought I’d share it too. Sometimes we just need to laugh silly.
