Laptop, hard disks, all at home!!!

Hubby asked me whether i want to take along his laptop. I said "no need, I am going shopping after lunch. No time to use."

Guess what, he left by portable hard disk, my life line at home too!!!! Darn!!! And I cant leave his office to go home, because he left his handphone here before going off for something somwhere, and I cant find/contact him. I cant runaway with his drawers all unlocked. All the important stuff are there.....Sigh.. that is the problem of sharing a house with others, and having bedroom doors with no lock. None of the drawers at home has a lock too. So, all important documents/valuables are all in his office. Maybe we are paranoid, but we dont trust that "painter". BTW, they advertised themselves as "professional couple".

"Puuuuiiiiiiiiiiiiii...!!!" I know this is rude of me, but I was woken up again with his daily throat and bronchial exercise.... which cumulate with a big lump of saliva/phlegm whatever shooting out of the balcony. I tell you, I think he can beat any of those "China" uncle who unfortunately have the sputum spitting image still stuck to them with his PuUUIIIIIIIIIIIiii. If he is in the kitchen, he shoots it into the sink. Same... loud. Darn. What is his gf aka as that doctor doing? If my hubby do this, I will slit his throat to spare him the need to clear it anymore.

Well, I do sound agressive. Bad mood. What to do... I am damn stressed. Nothing is done this morning. My afternoon shopping plan in an empty street on a cold blustery afternoon (wind speed predicted to be 40-60mph!!!!) may not be possible if I got to stay back to do it...

Thus.. I sneak off 10 minutes to let of my pent off frustration. I am frsutratated, therefore, I blog!!!

Autumn is here, laptop is dead

The autumn is here.

YOu know it when the trees are no longer bright dark green, but have shades of yellow. And ME---- I start to dig out my tights and nylon stockings. Tights for colder days, nylon stokings- which I HATED-are God sent when it is too warm to wear tights, eg when you spend most of the time in a room which is H-E-A-T-E-D. I still dont udnersdtand why the central heatings here had such high temps. May be it is the same logic why the air cond in Singapore is set at such low temp that people in offices need sweaters. Un-environmentally friendly!!!!

The temperature now is starting to go crazy, dipping... dipping. I think it dipped about 1-2 C per week since I got here. Now-single digit in some nights. Soon, frosts will appear in the mornings, and roads will be slippery.

I am glad that I came back early, or else it will be quite difficult to adapt.

I am already starting my "winter habits"- drinking loads of hot beverage. Actually the main reason i drink is because i made those hot teas, just to inhale the steam. The air feels so dry, that my nose is not feeling very comfortable, especially when I am at home and did not keep the heater on. With those housemates, especially that IDIOT guy who has a habit of checking the gas and electricity meter the moment he reaches home and change out of his "painter" garments, and make remarks about how "warm" the house it, I try not to on the heater when I am alone at home. I put on a sweater instead. The results? I am warm, but my nose suffers from cold dry air. Anyway, the ordeal will be over soon, when i MOVE!!! :D We will have our own studio, our own place! Yay....

Oh yeah, I got to drink more water, as the mouth feels dry.. and bad breath will happen if you dont. I notice people here smell in winter. BO and MO. Dry mouth and infrequent bathing............Yucks..............BAD...........................

Yesterday my laptop died. The fan is spoiled. There is nothing I can do about it at the moment. Ordered a new fan. Will take 3-4 days to reach. Well, to tell the truth, I feel damn crushed. Suay. I wonder if my life is jinxed!!!!!! But what can i do now,but put forward my shoppping trips? ?? {yeah, you might wonder how I got mood to shop, but there is nothing else i could really do! Why fret??}

I want to shop. I need a new coat. Well, I dont have those proper coats that are stylish enough to wear to work. I really wish I am taller, as short people look like dumplings in those coats. Children are different of course, they look so cuuuttteeee.. But short and fat people look like a ball. Round.

I found one which has a nice cutting from Dorothy Perkins-£60. Saw it last week, but hesistated beacuse it did not have a high wool content, and I was hoping for some discounts. Yesterday, I wanted to buy it when I walked past Oxford Street, because it was so chilly, and I felt so down after my fan died. Guess what, they sold out!!!!!! Now i know 14 is the most popular size. Sizes 14-16 are sold out for black colour! Shall I settle for the red one? I know I still look quite cute in the bright red one, hehee...... but I cant resist thinking that I look like "hong pao" in it. So, it is no no. I got to look more sophicated for my work. :P Cant let my new colleagues know that I have such a crazy side yet. I got to look professional, and damn serious. Haiz....

Darn. So.... I wll have to search other places for it. Hopefully, I will find it in one of the less popular shops.

enough of rambling.... oh yeah, Phi will come in December!!! :D
