Monsoon Rain

Raining non-stop for the past two days has been taking a toll on my canine son. Yes he loves his walks, but more to the fact that he has restricted the doing his "business" outdoor and that troubles me.
With his bloated tummy, he's refused dinner last night, his small frame is equipped with a even smaller storage tank. Sigh, hope it stops raining by tonight....

Ready to Go?

Leaving once again on Friday, with courtesy of two very nice friends of mine, we've managed to secure an apartment which requires no deposits and no advance utility bills, just a contract based on trust. Has yet to view the property, but I've really appreciate the effort that Candy is putting in to make it all work out. She even took the trouble of taking a coach over to settle all the furnitures and fixtures for us just to make our stay more convenient and comfortable.

Got a long distant call from her at one this afternoon, sad to say she called at the wrong time, my daily routine was to head off to bed at 5 in the morning and hibernate till dawn. Her ever so enthusiastic and bubbly voice was greeted by a not so enthusiastic, yet dreamy me. I really like her, she never fails to make my day. She's sweet, just hope that she would empathize with my lifestyle...

We've got a place to stay, but am I ready to go? Well,.... (long pause) ... not really, I'm too butt lazy to unpack my luggage and DHL box which was freighted back from Lala Land. I dread to picture the mess I'm about to create, the Cow's packing skill is too damn good, opening the DHL box would be likewise to say opening a jack-in-a-box but only with a mutated clown double the size of the box. It would be almost impossible to return any items into the carton once its out.... sigh. Six days left,.... I really have to find the guts to get down to work.

Goodbyes

Finally the time has come to bid farewell to a place I've called home for the past 30 months.
Farewell to newly found friends, Hunter, Elena, Tony, Onur. All very nice peeps and felines. Yes nice peeps, in fact I was asked why I'm starting to adore Elena, simply because I admire her wit, humour and genuineness. She's nice.

The chaos of packing and logistics had somehow kept our mind busy, but once that was over and done with, the slight sadness and unwillingness to leave sunk in.

Yes the 5.30 am flight and transit did take a tow on me as well.
Sitting next to me on my final transit was this very nice and friendly German chap (well I assumed he's German since he departed from Frankfurt and his ascent as well). Being as unsociable as always, I've avoided all small talks and eye contact. I'm drained and moody,... but throughout the seven hours flight, it was inevitable that we finally became 'acquaintance'. Just exchanged experiences from different countries and comments on how bad the inflight meals were before once again bidding farewell.

So many goodbyes in one day.

Hunter

Running my fingers through his thick fluffy snow white coat makes me wanna keep a feline of mine own.
He's vocal, full of personality, and loves to pose for me. What more can I ask for? Its funny how Tony seemed to take Hunter as his hobby, tormenting him by dragging his furry arse around the sofa, doping him with catnip. And strangely, Hunter seemed to enjoy the attention, maybe he gets the kick sinking in his sharp claws and drawing blood from his poor owner.
Had a great afternoon at Tony's, spending most of my time with my kitty host, which might have made me appeared rather anti-social ... what can I say? I prefer animal companionship ... not really so much of a people person.

Moo Moment (3) ** PG

(The) Cow has been pretty obsessed with my octopus massager lately.

If only he's using it for what its meant for.... but instead he's pushed it too hard trying to be kinky,.... which turned out to be annoying.
Every now and then, he'd place it in my hand, rub it around and using his newly adopted line, "uuhhhhhhhh, touch my *tako BALL!!!!"

I bought it only coz it looks adorable, but now its more of an object of disgust than cuteness.... sigh.
