Alright so, its been 3 days now, and finally my fever is starting to settle, and im feeling like im a normal human being with a body thats not burning up every 6 hours!!! hmm... yea, well as much as being sick can be so annoying, the minus factors certainly compound, when you know that, with each day away from the office, the amount of work that is going to pile up will increase alarmingly. (Just like in the cartoons where stacks of paper pile up, and in the end, no one can see who's at the table! hehehe!!)

 

In my job, we are told that we are supposed to be and have to be contactble 24/7 for our dearly beloved customers. Therefore, rain or shine, tsunami or hurricane, my mobile phone has to be switched on!!! hmm... so there goes any chances of me being able to get any rest!!! cos as soon as the working day dawns, my phone goes "beep beep beep".... and yes.... its a wonderful call from a very friendly customer! and yes, sick or not, its down to business and business it is, in a kind and cuerteous and friendly manner!

 

Well looking on the bright side of it all, because of my mobile being switched on, I was able to co-ordinate matters with my colleagues, and as we all work together as a team, matters of all concerns were resolved with ease!

 

So right now, I have two mobile phones with me.... and one that keeps me ALIVE by the love that I feel from the other end of the phone.... and one that keeps me receiving a solid income and is the means of my LIFE!!

 

hmm.... I hear my phone ringing now.....!!

I haven't done anything except  sit here all day and try and drown my surrows by listening to every song that I love, It's been a slow day, my phone is barred, so I can't even call Shaistha (my partner in crime) and Nazee (my mirror n soulmate n best pal). Ya, so it can't get any worse....!!!

 

Last nite was a terrible nite for all of us.... ppl lost their lives..... the town was in darkness..... it was under attack.... and no one knew what was happening, and among all this chaos, our guys in Barbados started to lose their way.... and den we lost da match in the end.... !!!

 

It's stange how happy moments and tragic moments, bring people together again..... last nite in the darkness, the one person who was on the phone with me giving me cricket updates was none other than my lil gud girl, Christine.

 

I was just enjoying every moment of it.... cos it reminded me of the past, where we would watch the match together, even though we were quite far away..... and it used to always bring us closer.....  and now the memories started to sweep me and overwhelm me.... and I just never wanted it to end, because for once.... it felt like everything was ok again! and that she was back..... back in my world...... and then just as I got carried away.... the power came back on!!!......

 

.... and like a dream..... it all faded away..... because now it was back to reality, and she realised that we had got carried away, and decided that now it was best if we watched the match alone...!

 

i wish the power had never come back on....... !!
