Uber dew
Outlook's got 8 "overdue" windows on my monitor, and I can't dismiss any of them. Overdue overdue overdue... sigh.. my lambo life is overdue. But soon about to happen... National day weekend is just 2 fridays away and we're whiskin' ourselves away to a beach paradise baby awwwww yea.
It's been raining alot and a pang of worry struck me this morning as I saw Gina sitting this with a wet posterior (the porch doesn't do a complete job in sheltering its residents), thinking about how water was sitting on painted but cheap Czechoslovakian steel... and oxidizing. Rust- every Alfisti's greatest heartbreak. Must be worse now that they've drilled a hole and put pin and lock through the trunk wall in order to keep 10,000 monkeys from prying off the new weekend registration plate. Yup, Gina is officially an off-peak car now, shedding me the burden of $1,100 in road tax & insurance but also any dreams of stylishly utilizing her as everyday transport. One day... when I can at least afford the petrol bills. As Italian as Gina is, she drinks petrol like a Brit drinks beer - alot of it, without getting very far.
Miss Linda Chia appeared in Digital Life today as part of a feature on 3 babes and 3 hunks of Singapore's blogosphere. As the hit counter on lindachia.blogspot.com rallied and the comments flurried in, the to-be-expected smattering of shit-talking arrived as well.
These closet blog comment-ers tend to remain anonymous, though on a blog like Linda's you can safely issue out names insecurelittleguy01, insecurelittleguy02 and so on. I-li'lguyXX's (for short) comments are typically formulated with questionable integrity around the sale of sex in one form or other, and pretty much nothing else. Collectively, his comments appear on most cute-girl-blogger sites with remarkable consistency, because he wants to rid the world of women who are both attractive and proud to be vocal.
Is he driven by a seed fear that our patriarchal society might go the way of the matriarch and nobody will want to have sex with him? I don't know. But as insignificant as his motivations are, I realised today that the little men do have the capacity to hurt, and that's too bad because I have no doubt that he has the capacity to love too.
And what do we need more of on this planet?
Hmm... love would be good.
