8.13 train

i went to work extremely satisfied ---
i was able to bring a fair amount of rubbish out
in time for the pick up.

lem had removed the carpet from the room.
the rolls can't just be dumped anywhere, anytime.
then there are the styrofoam from whitegoods.

a third of them now gone.
the rain celebrates with me.

cool and sunny, bitter candy

if sugar is sweet
i am brown sugar
if a crayon's yellow
i am bland
if a wheel's turning
i am musing

tea leaves may be bitter
i have fallen
music makes melody
i can be dainty
recycled paper white as snow
i cut, i know

thankful i am a confused who i am
looking forward to what's yet to come

a brighter shade of you

i pale with routine.
today's a break.
surprised.

i went home 30 minutes earlier than usual.
took a walk, then swam a bit.
refreshed.

strangers in the net

i have this in my form:
onchange=javascript:this.form.submit();

and i kept on getting this on my error console:
this.form.submit is not a function

after ogling and googling to the brink of frustration,
a Michael Sharman saved the day:

This only seems to happen when you have a form element named “submit” already on your page,
so the browser treats that “submit” element as an object which is of course NOT a function.

hah! thankful.

5 cents

today i learned that it is easier to go down an escalator that's going up
than it is to go up an escalator that's going down.

i enjoyed the walk in the rain.

lem loves chinese food
as much as he loves the not-so-chinese me.
maybe slightly more.

today was buffet lunch.
with chris hia and family.
and more family.
thankful we're adopted :)

"Shoes make me happy...I'm superficial...whatever..." - Rubi Shoes my love for the rain would make me appear profound - hopefully. and this is my love-child ->

day street

after being used to daylight saving for 6 months, now that it's 'off'
i find it a little strange that it's already dark at 5.30 in the afternoon.
made me hurry, to finish my tasks and go home.
thankful for winter solstice.

bread top

i never had problems answering phone calls
until recently when i had to take business calls in the office.
i couldn't get the caller details correctly.
and my boss and i had a laugh about my being a lousy secretary.

thankful this week is different.
it is good to know there's a lot more to be learned.
