The Angelinesque Project: Day 2
On an average workday, it is almost impossible to run any errands, be it the productive kind or the purchasing sort, so I guard weekends zealously. Which usually means all those movies-and plays-to-catch; friends-to-meet activities hog the top spot on my to-do list and crunch up “me” time (and I seriously mean ME ONLY time) big time, and I am left scrambling for scraps of alone-ness to fit in individual segments independent of friends and family.
I decide to be generous to my physical self today and scrap emofeeding my soul for once (I had in the last three days, caught 4 inspirational movies, and even that can be too much for a literary and pop culture snob). So I am off for a hair spa, to think and put out empty, replenishing some household products and maybe treat myself to a fashionable pair of glasses and a uniquely designed LBD. Yes, I shop better when I do not have company. Better luck too. Oh, and if time should permit, we can throw in a massage too.

On a separate note, is it the norm to cab your way to anywhere these days? I confess I cab to work almost everyday now. It makes me feel ready and happy for work, as I emerged calm and collected with no flyaway hair. I cab every weekend too, to town and heading home. I am convinced it is a good investment: I am buying time and convenience. I no longer experience MRT rage and surely, that is a good thing. Others see it as squandering the cash; I see no purpose in squirreling away these dollars in my current life circumstance. It is necessary and it is not evil. Best Friend affirms the theory and practice, and I feel validated as it is.

I cab to work everyday too...with similar self rationalization. It's reassuring to know there is someone who thinks along these lines too.
