2.00 pm on a tuesday afternoon...

found a bored-out-of-her-mind mel alone at home, blasting chris tomlin and damien rice on her computer speakers..over the loud vrrrrrrrrr of a darn heavy vacuum.

yeah, obviously couldn't hear them very well. but it sure beats the silence. and the occasional echoes a quite-empty house produces when the blinds hit the wall and the door. keeps making me think that someone's knocking on my front door.

this morning's session of toilet washing and bathroom scrubbing didn't kill as much time as i'd hoped.

what? i was bored.

to the point that cleaning actually looked quite appealing to me. who would've imagined right?

i guess its goodbye to the undomestic goddess, hello to mommy-in-training mel. not that i have kids or anything, i just reckon these are like, the basics.

so, sent a text message to my parents in sydney.

mel : yo, u guys done?
mom : juz finish for d day. in taxi wif group now headg back 2 hotel. any mails thru post for us?
mel : nope, just a bank statement for dad.
mom : K. will call u later dis pm. Anyting xciting 2day?
mel : lol. nope. unless u wanna call toilet washing and vacuuming exciting.. -.-"
mom : haha...gud job!

just 3 words.

and i felt way better than i did all day. :)
