of paperweights, pigs and dolphins

back to work. i want to start the year right and decided to do it first off by wearing a gray Scottish plaid skirt and a pink top today. i arrived in the office with my desk devoid of the usual clutter of papers and i am definitely not used to it. i was actually at a loss-- i couldnt remember what i was working on before i left for the holidays. i know one great way to solve this: re-clutter my table.

aside from my PC and speakers, there are four other stuff sitting on my desk: a blue star and blue moon paperweights, a pink rubber pig whose eyes pop out when you give its tummy a squeeze, and a blue dolphin atop a white swirl. they look at me quietly and i ask myself where they come from. i look at the files precariously perched on the shelves above me and i think i have accumulated too many garbage that i refuse to throw out.

i have 360 days more ahead of me (it's a leap year, i think). with the way things happen everyday, 365 days could feel like, well, 365 long days, or just a year that has wonderfully passed by.

withdrawal syndrome

i've quit smoking for almost a month already. i went through the usual irritability and craving bouts, salivating like i was some mad dog, and the restlessness that wouldn't go away. aside from that, i feel perfectly great.

my vanity has actually won over this oral fixation. teehee. and yep, we're planning to have babies soon. five of them. what a joy.

thinking Manhattan

i feel so strongly that i could do whatever i want and go wherever i want to. that's what i will be doing soon. kulas and i, that is.
