A Mind of My Own

It’s easy to be touched. Claimed by some people. However, what makes your heart just beat faster or you going all soft an gooey? Bobo’s Love touched her with a breakfast. She has vacuum packed the evidence too. Aww. I love that gesture of breakfast.

I have been touched by my mother. There was once I was limping due to my carelessness in hitting my foot against the table. That was because I thought my leg was way stronger than the leg of the table. Not. She woke up in the middle of the night and use ointment vigourously on my injured foot. Ouch. However, can you imagine someone waking up in the middle of the night and helping you to lessen the pain in your foot?

There were other times like just making porridge because of my wisdom tooth surgery. Mention something that I had problem looking for and the next few days, I will find that item on my desk. Touching, right?

Not to forget the times DD looked for ways to watch movies at cheaper rates with me. Save money, important too, ok? And the time DD offered to send me home after watching Alien vs Predator 2. BTW, the movie was not that worth the money either. I wished we had won the tickets instead. Oh well, it’s over.

Have you been touched?

I’m totally not in the holiday mood either. I’m just demoralised at work. Something is not right even though I’ve been trying to make the thing last. Apparently, the straw has been broken and now, I’m just here and trying to work it out but faced with the constant issue of the dreaded error message and no matter what alternatives I tried, the error stays.

And I don’t think it’s this error that’s causing me to pull out my nicely curled hair. It’s me feeling low today. Something was triggered this week. I haven’t been smiling or really laughing heartily today, especially.

ARIES MARCH 21 – APRIL 20
Nothing seems to ruffle you more than a lack of discipline, disloyalty and decorum. But Arians are also known to go into a rage very easily when challenged. Those of you who have been on the receiving end of the Aries temper know that if not calmed down they can even get violent. But one thing is certain if the opponent remains calm and does not react to their outburst, Arians cool down very fast. They are also the first to apologize, which makes them easier to forgive.

TAURUS APRIL 21 – MAY 20
You are generally quiet and have control over your emotions. It is difficult to predict what will upset you, so when you do lose your cool, people don’t know how to react. Your temper is like that of a raging bull, and anyone trying to pacify you will be the first one to get a verbal bashing. You generally get upset when you are concerned or when people accuse you of doing something wrong. You also hate being reminded about mistakes you’ve made in the past. You also have the potential to be terribly vindictive if rubbed the wrong way.

GEMINI MAY 21 – June 29
You are recognized by your cheerful disposition and your jovial nature is easily susceptible to anger. In fact, you are the best person to have around when there is an ugly scene at a party you can bring the warring factions together quite diplomatically. But when you lose cool, you yell and scream and will not listen to reason. You must have the last word in a wordy duel. Your capacity to argue aggressively is matched only by your seductive charm.
