It’s Saturday again and I can hear my twitchy psyche already complaining. Such a long weekend, and indeed very exhausting. The air conditioner in the office is one hell of a torture; how I wish I have my pillows and blanket with me… Today’s a humdrum day.
Let me go back… one whole week of not posting a blog… What??? Why???
Simple reason: office to-do’s. Parts of my job are meetings here and there, reports here and there, phone calls here and there and yes, addressing employee concerns here and there. But I am not complaining, I love what I’m doing. But of course, if I wouldn’t post anything, my quest to be a popular blogger will be put in question; moreover, to a catastrophe. Shit!!! Yeth’s blog is more updated than mine!!!
Okay, okay… Monday’s (October 08) something that will be stamped on my life calendar (just don’t know how long it will hang back in my long-term memory). It was the day my upper braces were installed (the lower portion will be done on Monday, October 15 as my pre-molars still has tight contacts). Yes readers, the guy’s now joining the office fad. And what a fad indeed!!! So expensive and so hurting…
It’s Monday as well when me and my bestfriend ate out, after two months of his hibernation. Bullshit!!! I didn’t enjoy my Chowking Congee meal… while he feasted on his Fish with Tausi Sauce, my siomai and his (I gave it to him after I can't finish a piece) and of course, his ever-present buchi!!! I was also envious of his Ruffles and bar of chocolate… I haven’t eaten a good meal yet since Monday. Well, at least last night I was able to eat some little portion of pork from my Mom’s nilagang baboy… But knowing me and my food intake, it’s really a big sacrifice! But thanks, I’m losing weight… and that’s the good side.
Tuesday again, as usual was the first day of work. I was tasked to deliver the Leadership Meeting’s Guiding Principle and yes, delivered a senseless speech. Blame it to the braces’ pain and to the impromptu notification… this isn’t the usual me.
Wednesday’s Ever’s Birthday celebration and I tried to eat Amber’s spaghetti. My dentist would have spanked me but it was very mouth-watering!!! Thanks Ever for the treat!
Thursday’s a test for my speech prowess (I’m now having speech defects because of the braces); I am supposed to host the Monthly Town Hall. Thanks to Ryan for supplanting me. But still, the talkative me didn’t want to be outshined. Toink! I still delivered the longest spiel.
Friday’s a meeting with my Great Place to Work Council finalizing our Christmas Party Plans. If there are many things I am looking forward come Christmas season, this one’s probably topping the list. I can’t wait to experience the elegance of the The Blue Leaf Pavilion and gobble up on Josiah’s Catering’s sumptuous dishes. By then I probably would have been more comfortable with my braces.
Well, it’s 10:03 AM and I’m done with my day’s to-do’s. Saturday’s really an insipid day… But there are also few exciting things that I’m looking forward to this weekend...
First, my date with Yeth and Jean later at Festival Mall, though I dunno know what will be the activities for this one. Second, I can again have long sleeps tonight and on Sunday night. Third, it’s Avegail’s birthday celebration tomorrow and we’ll be dining out as a family again with Tita Lydia and Lola; though this one’s gonna be an ordeal for me, envying them eating nice dishes while me eating soft ones. Not to mention the money that I would have to share to this supposed-to-be treat from the bitchy celebrant, hmp!. Fourth, my full-time membership with the Office’s Latest Fad Organization will be realized on Monday with the installation of my lower braces. And so a week again of initiation, of soups and soft diet!!!
It really pays to be gorgeous.
