this is the week when things just pop up out of the blue.

... like the instant quickie project that fell into my lap the other day as i was downloading songs on the internet. an ex-boss called asking for help. and it's something that i can do too, given my previous work and background. (although for a sec, i wondered why it was that ex-boss, and not the other ex-boss that called. maybe a matter of tactics on their part, if it had come to that. hehehe!)

... like the instant date with this good-looking young cousin and his warm, funny, reflective stories of growing up married :) nice one, cousin! have fun in the u es of a.

... or the fact that I am now sick, brought about by having the ex-boss' aircon blasting fully onto me, while we talked about women, health and water. i am dismayed to be sick, it adds to the low morale. have been needing to fight for my dignity, lately. but if i don't who will? (and a million thanks to those whose love sustain me). certainly, I have learned my lessons well, very very well, more times than you can imagine, long before this year. and after everything, I would still choose to have erred on the side of naivete than on the side of dishonesty.

Love, peace and trees! The trees know and they will remember :)
