( ( ( N U M B S K U L L ) ) )

I am immobilized. Feel paralyzed on my right side. 

I've not been hit by some terminal illness, but right now I can imagine how that feels like.

This Household McGuyver had just spent the entire weekend stripping old paint off the living room walls. Every single muskle in my right arm-wrist-fingers and my neck have been stretched to their max and my two feet are swollen from standing on the narrow ladder steps for a consecutive 8 hours. My knuckles.. my joints.. is this what they call arthritis?

AND ALL THIS SUFFERING.. is just the result of part 1 where I strip off the old paint.

I foresee difficulty in clicking my mouse at work with my right hand tomorrow. And no high-heeled shoes for my poor swollen feet.

Gah! I need a weekend extension! And please can it come with a full body massage!

p.s. Za no pictures yet, it's a war zone right now.

I feel like I should write something

I've had a very busy life since the last week of Dec.
Mostly work, some home improvement stuff, very little social stuff.


It's less than ideal, but I think the busy-work part is tapering off now. Still have a busy 2-3 days to go, but with clenched fists and teeth I will make it.


Other plans for the near future is to spend more time doing spring cleaning. GooeyGecko suggested we do up the living room. Conceptually a modern and clean finish, with special request by Poppadum for it to be bright.

(Those ceiling to floor windows are to die for..)

With limited funding and resources Gooey says he will use his own and Poppadum's muscle powers to paint the place. I think with all these work-things I can at the most help out through generating brilliant Household McGuyver ideas. I spent several hours biting my nails today. mm, I meant I spent several nail-biting hours conceptualizing how to best utilise the green and white scheme to suit my living room. I prepared a sketch too.


I will be easy on the furniture and accessories - budget constraints. The main thing to do now is to rid off the antique furniture set that's taking up an unreasonable amount of space. I think we will all be happier sitting on the bare, clean floor.


Hope this all goes as planned, not like the numerous times where we gave up after half-hearted attempts to redo the living room.


And this is my first New Year's Resolution for 2011!


Cheers

Unimpressed

One wonders why global giant use dinosaur IT system.


One is making use of time waiting for global IT system to be ready, multi-task to write blog with wait time. Global IT system not making it easy for One to move on with life to update the next cell.


One is sleepy and will no longer await global IT system to twitch its little virtual finger no more.

I'm not an anti-social animal!

If you know me you'd know I'm designed to eat, drink and be merry.

For the benefit of those who don't know me personally, let me just share with you that I'm a person who likes to eat, drink and be merry. And I believe I do a good job of eating, drinking and being merry.

I'm not an anti-social animal! I have my demands for respectable social time! With friends and especially family. Don't keep me chained to my desk!

Oh wow I'm soo sleepy right now I'm dozing off with Koollie in my hands..

Night night everyone!
Night night PushyP!

Zzz.

My Bouncy Entry

Blogger is strange, it allows me to enter my blog entry via my android only in the 'Edit Html' tab instead of the 'Compose' tab. Also whenever I swype some text into this box my window keeps bobbing to the bottom of the text box.

Bah humbug I give up!!

Me goes bed.

Strange Thoughts.

I raised this topic today and thought it makes a substantial topic for a brog entry so I'm bringing it right here.


Before the age of the dinosaurs and for the longest time, I lived life wondering why people do strange things, some to the extent of doing things that make me angry. 


Gradually it occurred to me that they do the things they do and I feel the way I feel because there is no common understanding. 

I'd like to point out that communication and understanding are 2 separate matters. Yeah surely communication needs to take place before understanding happens. But having communication doesn't mean understanding is sure to follow. Understanding requires empathy which is not required in communication. 


Empathy is the one single one one thing that is really rare and I doubt it truly exists. It's a 7 letter word packed with a whole lot of considerations that you can begin to collate and publish as a technical paper. Key points highlighted.. To empathise you need to first - understand the background of someone, 2nd understand his priorities and values. Smaller pieces like habits and emotions follow.


Of course these are difficult information to obtain - Man's mind is a really complex organ. It would be idealistic asking you and me to have all this information at once. If this happens we will turn into homogeneous replicas like in Matrix.


That's why we are - Man. 
Or, Woman, if you like.


Nonetheless the minimal we could do is to try to listen. 


"I may not agree with you right now but if I don't listen, I will never know. If I never know I will never understand. If I never understand, amiability goes to the dogs."
