Drama-less

My life is devoid of drama. And mostly by design. But maybe drama is what gives life meaning. And maybe even I need some of it. That might explain why I'm starting to watch TV shows for their drama. Following underlying twisted plots of relationships and random happenings in people's (unreal) lives gives me something to relate to. Albeit a very one-way sort of relation. I think I'm just getting lonely.

I read somewhere that having a best friend at work increases your job satisfaction. My best friend at work is physically 3,000 miles away, but our daily contact brightens my day at the office all the same - even when it's limited to seeing the green dot and reading the day's status. Other than that, I've basically kept to myself at work. I think I've even stopped trying and started avoiding. I don't even know why.

It's funny that after I moved away, the Bay Area really seems like home to me. I know the back roads, the fast lanes, the slow lanes, and within a 25 mile radius, I can drive around without needing a GPS. I know where to find things. I know none of that here in New Jersey, but of course, it's because I "just" moved here. The thing is, I don't know if I care if I never know where things are here. But this is where I live. And a giant dump of a strip mall or not, this is home for now.

No point to this one (just like the rest)

I was so bumming I lost my Ferragamo boots. Since it gets so cold lately ni, I went and bought myself a new pair. It was so hard to find a decent pair that's not too trendy. Aku ni manalah reti fashion fashion sangat ni. But, wah! Rupanya Stuart Weitzman ni memang sungguh comfy! Nils doesn't like the pointy toes, but I love! Oklah, so maybe now I'm not so bummed out anymore. Whoo hoo!

Did I tell you, last week Nils masak sardine with cili padi for me? Muahaha! So good! And so nice of him to cook for me while I was swamped with work. Especially considering he doesn't eat sardin. Fishing bait, he says. Ada ke patut?? :p But it's ok, more for me!
