I can only see

Rainy.  Sunny.

There is kalamansi tree on the most left.  No more fruit because I have plucked it for my teh limau panas.  Then then dunno-what-name palm-type plant.  Then the ciku which is berbuah now.  My landlady and I talked about disinfecting it - the branches grow some whitish mold, we are not sure what it is.  Before that, I sms-ed her "I nearly chopped off the branches because I thought the brown things are the dead leaves; turn out it is the fruit.", prompting her to drop by to check it out since this is her first cikus!  Heehee!  Next to ciku is a flower and another palm tree - species unknown to me.

Honestly, I don't like ciku.  But it is fun trimming it, caring it and yes!  I am waiting for wrapping the fruit session!

I went back to the house despite knowing that I can only spend a maximum of 20 minutes with the boys within the one-hour lunch break.

20 minutes driving home
20 minutes talk to the  F l u f f y  shrinks
20 minutes drive back to office

Lately nothing sparks an interest to me at work.  I tried.  I looked.  I observed.  I stopped.

Nothing!

That is worrisome.  I am so scared of getting bored with my job!

And I find it difficult to talk to the air-headed bunch.

So I drove home.

To my  F l u f f y  shrinks.

I left LouLou theCat outdoor with Shorty theDog when I left in the morning, he must have been glad that I was back during the lunchtime to let him in.

Shorty as the usual crazy self, half expecting me to take him for a stroll (seriously, under the scorching sun?!), and half wanting me to rub his belly.

F l u f f y  Shorty got belly-rubbing, while I was waiting for the water to boil.

F l u f f y  LouLou meowed me from the kitchen, asking if he can have a canned fish instead of the biscuit.

Now I got confused - who's the shrink?  Because it looks like I am the one responding to their needs; like how a psychiatrist responds to / analyzes a patient.

Nonetheless, in between feeding LouLou, playing with Shorty and having a hot drink (as my lunch!), I found my sanity.  At least I stopped thinking, worrying, analyzing about work.

My F l u f f y  boys!

Too bad it was raining when I got home in the second-half time.  Otherwise I will take Shorty strolling around the taman.

P.S.  I had drafted a few posts but I wonder why it still stuck there for sometimes...  Perhaps, perhaps, my mind is freeze by the chilling, cruel, wet weather!

Kiss the rain

It  was  raining  last  night.

Kiss the rain whenever you need me

Kiss the rain whenever I'm gone, too long

If your lips feel lonely and thirsty

Kiss the rain and wait for the dawn

Keep in mind we're under the same sky

And the nights as empty for me, as for you

If you feel you can't wait till morning

Kiss the rain

Kiss the rain

Kiss the rain

And  it  reminds  me  of  a  song.

Now where are we?

The boys are still excited about the new place.  They keep running in and out, and around the house.  I hope I have a boundless energy and enthusiasm like them.  By the way, the opposite neighbor have 7 dogs in all sizes!  My godness!

But despite their difference in sizes, I can generally say that they are too well overfed.  When I saw the tall one (sorry, I am illiterate when it comes to dogs breed), I thought she/he is pregnant (I need to verify on this one too).  Not until I met the other 5 smaller and shorter comrades of it.  So round, as shapeless as a bolster!  I took Shorty out to meet them today.  Well, I was supposed to introduce them earlier but it was raining in the past few days.

Few units away from me is another white Labrador (I think it is a Labrador) whom got excited to see us passing by the neighborhood street.  Geez!  These dogs makes me envy about their perspective of life.  Dogs say:  "If there's a new comer in the street, greet them and try to sniff them eventhough you're tied to gate / locked in the cage."  Me, I get tongue-tied whenever I see my neighbors.  All I do is smile while my mind is racing to think the appropriate line.

Anyway,  LouLou was attacked right at the car porch last night.  That stupid big cat.  You think your ancestor own the street huh?  My little boy is new to the place and if you don't welcomed him here, stay far, far away.  Why need to launch an attack!?  Ah, this really worried me because I don't want to keep them in the house.  Last night I let him sleep in the house as I don't want the fat intruder to disturb him.

My boys!

Hujan

Note:  The following entry might choke you.  Please make sure someone nearby is capable to perform Heimlich Maneuver on you.  Choke, I say.  In case you got choked.

Hari ini saya tulis dalam Bahasa Malaysia.  Bukan sempena 1Malaysia atau Hari Kebangsaan.  Tapi perkataan hujan kedengaran lebih "ooommmppphhh!!!" lebih-lebih lagi kalau diucapkan dengan dramatik: "huuuuuuuuujaannnnnnnnnnnnnnnn".

Kenapalah hujan turun lebat? 

Macam faham yang saya pun sedang "hujan".

Hari ini saya telah merancang pergi ke bank & perpustakaan.  Hmmm...  semua dibatalkan sebab lebat betul, nanti basah kena selesema...  Akan membuat panggilan ke perpustakaan untuk melanjutkan tempoh pinjaman.

Hujan & sejuk!!!

Saya ingin membancuh kopi!!!
