Weekender

Weekend nights after twelve without alcohol + Monocle magazine + Jazz + a spot of weeding/fertilizing/trimming + research on random interests = satisfaction on a level I do not get during weekdays

Dream interpretation

Its strange, I had this dream when I was snoozing between my usual wake up time and when my mom came in screaming hysterically "you're late for work!" I really don't know what the following dream means:

I spotted two slithering tails in my kitchen cabinet (where all the snacks are), they were lizards, but they were huge! Like the size of my forearm, and one of them slithered into the huge crockpot of boiling water, and i could see it bubbling away. Soon after, the other huge lizard slithered into the pot, and I could see its face in agony as it disintegrated at the mouth, and started swirling in the pot of boiling water, and all I could do was stare stunned at the swirling mess.

Isn't this so true? Cleverly done ad, isn't it.

The whole truth

"Who among them, you wonder, grew up longing to be in product management or marketing research? Who lay in the summer grass aged ten staring up in the sky thinking how magical it would be to one day sit in a glass box beside a freeway revising contracts?No one. Instead you know that beneath their suits and khakis your employees are an army of poets, chess wizards, baritones, fantasists, whittlers, spankers, animal lovers, gamblers, gluttons and sudoku nuts"

Fitting in

I found out today that I have left the last vestiges of desire to revert to my corporate lifestyle when the bantering of my ex colleagues from Corp failed to even excite a tinge of buzz within me. Meeting SGX deadlines are definitely not as exciting as discussing strategy to bring down an opponent's case.

Am preparing for two hearings at the end of this month and itching for a fight!! Wish me luck!

Dreams are what you wake up from

2 Day MC = Time spent with mom + rest at home + home cooked food + ability to monitor shares + 10 hour naps + TV, TV, TV


I could live like this forever
