days are slow

as you can see, i have not posted a blog in 4 days. although i have been busy at work, i can't really say i enjoyed it. i am quite dispirited as i cannot assure myself that the work i do at the moment will be of any use in the future. if it wasn't for the money, i am sure i won't force myself to wake up at daybreak with any urgency.

monica has been eating like a rabbit - far too little but far too often. she has become very audacious, adding a lot more zing to her food. annie, my colleague, says if a pregnant woman craves for "sour" things, then the baby will be a lad. "spicy" on the other hand would undeniably mean a lass. so, "annie", i ask, "you must have been partial to spicy food since you have a daughter"? she says, "no bollocks. it didn't work for me".. hmm. i wonder why she mentioned this to me with some assurance ? although i & monica much prefer a baby girl, i query if monica's fondness to food with zing-amahoochi these days signifies a girl !

i read monica's blog today and observed what she said about "not coming across as a motherly figure" to most people. i must insist, she really does not. worse, i cannot even see her as a teenager !! my warped imagination sees monica in the play room wrestle with my baby over what dress barbie should be sporting and how many "barbies and ken" they each are allowed in their respective collection ! I should stop watching those horror channels in the night.. [no eric, not those channels you are thinking about]

last weekend went faster than superman on dope. just when the tranquility was settling in, the alarm sadistically trumpets it is time to go to work. it is a very dangerous attitude. i have to stop sniveling and put up with my work for a few more months...
