theory of relativity

after a week of being on leave, i went to work yesterday for half a day - it was my shift anyways. i figured i could clear my gazillion emails before i start work for real on the 8th. i had brekkie with my colleagues who kept me up to speed with what's been happening while i was away. then logged on to check emails. i tried and tried .... to remember my passwords. damn you T for teasing me abt those ginko pills! ITD said that they couldn't reset my passwords till next wed. my simple plan was thwarted.

instead, i spent the hours reading the news (i had no idea that saddam was going to be executed nor the extent of the internet downtime; amongst other news.) very gripping stuff. i had spent the last 7 days totally absorbed in my family where life went on while my little world spun it's own in a galaxy not far away. rather, i have been sucked into a black hole where space and time stood still but didn't. doesn't relativity rock.

but i digress .... so my disability became my advantage. i managed to catch up with the world before i crawl back under a rock again for the next week and brace myself for angel girl's adventures at primary school.
