I was feeling great today. I made it back home from Emily’s hometown with a lofty mood, after a night’s worth of jolly drinking and feasting binge, which kinda untangled heaps of my accumulated knots. It feels as if I’ve been lifted off shitloads of mental encumbrance, so fresh, so rejuvenated.

Because I could see the sky was so blue today, I decided to give my car Lorraine a good wash, and so, I drove her to my apartment washing bay (which is right next to the cute dumpster site). When I got myself ready to flush my car, I was suddenly hit by some putrefying stench. Must be from the rotten food inside the dumpster. It’s a good thing – I thought. That means that my neighbors were blessed with an abundance of food (but haven’t got enough garbage bags to dispose them.) I guess it was fair for them to just pour their leftovers all over the dumpsters… the garbage men wouldn’t mind.

I went on to wash Lorraine with a jovial mood, but as I was getting ready to jet water over Lorraine, I noticed that there was a bag of empty soda cans inside the drain, partially clogging it up. Well, my neighbors certainly were enjoying themselves too much last night, for they did not even have the time to dump their empty cans into the bin. How nice.

Anyway, because the day was so beautiful like that, I later decided to go for a movie with Emily. But because the cinema’s so jam packed, I had to change the venue to another mall. No problem for me. On the way out of the parking lot, I stumbled into a Mercedes Benz driven by a young lady. That car was stuck because the lady was too freaked out to go through the autogate. Instead, she opted to reverse her car ALL THE WAY BACK to the spiraling parking lot driveway, back to the mall, hopefully to find some help there. Knowing that her effort will be futile, I helped her out by giving her a yank of my melodramatic air horn, which sent her panicking back down the driveway, activating the autogate and shooting out from the area. Human makes mistakes, it’s duly acceptable to be such.

The next thing I knew after going through the congested streets to THAT OTHER mall, we missed the show. So we bought for the next show instead, which was 2 hours away. But it was alright, because that gave me some free time to walk around and savor the beautiful day more. And we ended up burning plenty of time hanging out at places we don’t usually go.

After spending the wonderful 2 hours doing nothing, we finally got into the cinema for the show. Met a lot of interesting people inside there. Especially that inquisitive kid behind our seats who kept asking his parents about what’s happening in the movie. And the lady in front of our seat who kept parrot-ing everything about the movie to her husband. How loving of them. But the most interesting of all was perhaps the bunch of teenagers with spiky hairstyles and baggy pants, who hollered and hooted every now and then unprovoked. I guess that must be their idea of having a great time.

And then we went through more traffic congestion on our way home. It was good, I spent plenty of time thinking.

Then I got home, fired the internet, and read news about people getting stabbed, mugged, hit & run, while our law enforcement officers getting their derrieres busy nabbing and shaving up geriatrics for doing evil things like playing mahjong…

What a beautiful day it has been. It couldn’t have gotten any better than this…
