A cuppa tea always helps me relax. The day that i have copious amounts of tea is an indication of me being very stressed (apart from snapping of course!). Today was one such day.
I was thrown in the deep end and had to swim....and swim I did! I pride myself in adapting easily to new environments (haan chal, I am not speaking of the Arctic but managing frosty smiles and sarcasm comes a close second). I have to admit that dealing with people in a friendly manner has been a learnt behaviour. This is the main reason as to why I abhor socialising after work. It tires me out and this is when I miss my dog the most. I have grown up with pets and not having one now is really hard. It has been more than 5 years now since I left home but that vacuum still remains. Sometimes, when I share this thought out aloud, I hear responses like...Oh well, you should just have a baby. This is infuriating to say the least. To think that this can in fact be some sort of consolation. Never mind.
On a more upbeat note, I do hope to enjoy the weekend. The plan is to sleep, read and...study for my driving theory test. Yes, you heard right! For the record, these tests are very boring especially if like me you have spent all your time in the car fast asleep! I will leave you with that thought..
