Lemony Snickets..

remember that one? a series of unfortunate events? well, i felt like i was the main character of that this morning..

so first i wake up and all's fine. then i spend 10 freaking minutes doing something that should've taken 1 minute tops.. so thats the first.. and its all downhill from there. i'm a bit late so i rush out the grill and start gorgeous up.

since todays salsa, wanted to wear my heeled sandals that has a strap/string going around my ankle, so i open the boot, change my shoes (for the uninitiated, i have a shoe warehouse in gorgeous' boot), and i dont put the straps on since i drive without shoes. so i'm going back to close the grill and one foot trips over the sandal's strap and i almost fall (no i didnt ;-) and the sandal's strap also putus la (lucky it was vincci and not hushies or clarks or something, but then again if it was hushies or clarks, prob wouldnt have putus, now i have to go to the cobbler over the weekend.. sighhhh)

anyway, my little toe hurts, so i change into my wedges and i drive to work. on the way to work, i eat a nei urundai (ghee ball for those who dont speak greek) - (p/s vanitha wheres my yearly dose of cookies?) and since its all powdery, some of it falls onto my black edmunser slacks that i'm wearing. so i try to rub it off and i cant, so i take my water bottle so that i can use some water to rub it off and i open the cover and THE BLOODY COVER FALLS UNDER MY SEAT!! so i just sigh (bear in mind that the bottle is almost full and i'm at a traffic light).

so i end up driving with one hand all the way to the office, no mishaps, lucky gorgeous is auto lah kan, thank god (bearing in mind again that the route involves a few turns, traffic lights and a freaking u-turn), so i rush up and get in like a few seconds before nine. then try to get the stain off with water and tissue and WONDER OF WONDERS - the tissue start disintegrating into my slacks! so i stop, try to get rid of whatevers there and make a mental note no to use tissue on cloth ever again!

about an hour later, realise that my little toe is really numb and i cant feel it anymore. so i bend down to check and the whole things bleeding (dried, eeeuugghhhh).. so i go wash it and put some yellow lotion and my wedges cant do anymore cos they're abt 3 inches or so and i go all the way to my car to get my "auntie" pair of hushies.. so alls ok right? wrong..

someone tells me there's a half dead kitten in the basement that needs attention! so there goes my lunch hour - checked on it first and tried to wet some tissue in milk and put it near its nose but it doesnt suckle. so i call sarah at paws and tell her i'm bringing it in and when i go there, she gets it a basket and some towels and a glove filled with hot water to warm it up and gives it some kitty formula. said hi to all the doggies and cats and left the little thing with sarah.. apparently she's gonna try to find a surrogate mother for it or put it to sleep..

well, hope it lives ;-)
