The morning is dragging past extremely slowly. Welcome back to the monotony of worklife which would take some adjusting to, especially after last week's fun. What I would never fail to understand is how come time seems to fly past when I am enjoying myself, but goes excruciatingly slowly at times like now. Even the thought of lunchtime doesnt hold much excitment now cos its always the same few places I go and the same things I eat and see. And nowadays, I feel pretty ostracized from the rest of my colleagues cos I am sitting in a table away from them, pro is that I can slack, con is that I can only listen to their conversations, but never join in. Of course,most of the time, I am cocooned in a dreamy world of my own too,so I feel too anti-social to talk except the customary smile, hi,bye, how was lunch..etc..

And of course, I have other many other things on my mind too. Things arent very rosy with both parents as well.

Conversation with mum last night:
T:I am coming home for dinner tmr, are you cooking?
M: Of course I am...but if you are coming home for dinner just because your bf is not around anymore, you can save it
T: (patiently) He is flying off on sat
M: You can don't come home, I am used to eating alone anyway....

I have nothing to say,she was out socializing and not cooking on mon,tues,wed and thurs, and all I did was not come home for dinner on fri.

Phone conversation with dad:
T: Can I go msia on sat? I will come home on sun
D: You have so many other days, why must u pick sat, u have so many other days?
T: (very nicely) Please...can I go?
D: Well, I cant say no, can I?
Long pregnant pause
T: Well, I guess so
D: You have grown wings already,what can I say....

As it was, sun was spent with both of us not speaking to each other. He was in a snit, and I was not in a placatory mood, so there..... commandment number dunno what, honour thy parents, I am trying....its not working..
