  This is a warning. Should any of you see a 5'4" Sri Lankan man with a chesire grin and who answers to 'Shazam', RUN. He is known to make sick people go out. [rewind to 12 hours ago] I worked till 8pm last night and went to get Jelts from Shazam's after work. Shazam was going to meet Sandra, and her sis + brother-in-law later on, but we didn't want to go out. I had been sniffling all day, using up a whole office-sized bog paper and turning my dustbin at work into a work of art called 'The Legacy of Dead Trees'. Washing my hair and then tucking myself into bed with a large bottle of water and my book after a long day's work sounds like heaven.
So Shazam wanted to drop us off at home before he goes to Attica to meet those people. Bad idea. He'd been trying to convince us to please join them. Something about him being lost in Frog-land. But I already had images of me in Sleep-land. I must admit that it didn't take much for me (since I was the sick one, I get to decide whether we succumb to the idea of socialising in cold places with loud music that serve alcohol) to tell Uncle Cabby to please wait for us at the house for five minutes while I change so we could all go to Clarke Quay. Being sandwiched in the back of a taxi with these two men have the kind of effect that positive ions have on you.
It's like you could do anything (I was wrong by the way). So both Jelts and I changed out of our work wear and the rest, as they say, is shooters. We want to Attica first then to the 1nitestand and Crazy Elephant before ending up at Liquidroom - it's been SO long! I'll tell you something funny; my nose stopped leaking somehow. Was it because I was in my elements?
A thought. Guess bright lights, friends and alcohol have the same effect on urbanites as greens, fresh air and birds chirping do on country dwellers. Scary thought. Anyway Chris is having people come to sanitize our air cons, carpet and phones coz the office had turned into a vicious cesspool of germs and viruses. I needed to get out of there and weird thing - when I left the office to work from home, I realised that I don't remember how I got to work. Going home was a good idea. Gotta get some work done now.
