Say I'm weary, say I'm sad, say that health and wealth have missed me, say I'm growing old and it's -16C/3F out there and my throat hurts and not a day goes by but someone calls me in to work for them because (insert long list of other people and their children's physical complaints)

BUT ADD

when amazon.jp tells me Tuesday 'your order was shipped this day', my order will be waiting for me on Thursday. Why hello thar, 100 Ghosts 15. I do so wish I didn't have to work tomorrow.

Some day the 3-day delivery from Japan magic will end: but it hasn't ended yet.

If it helps you feel any better...its cooler here than its ever been...I'm wandering around in an autumn coat reserved for other countries, the rain hasn't let up yet, in-laws are here for three weeks...and WE"VE ALL GOT colds, including the in-laws! *Sigh*

ps also good news on the magic...Hope that cheers you up some

One sign of a civil cosmopolitan person is the ability to alter their own habitual behaviour so that foreigners may feel at ease. This makes Singapore a civil cosmopolitan person. 'Look, just for you- rain and coolness! We'll try for some fog tomorrow.'

It cheers me up immensely. One more day with the loud and obnox pre-schoolers and then a weekend curled up on the sofa with Ritsu and family. (Can't read it now- too wiped from toddlers and gadding about in the cold.)

Mmm, it's cold, isn't it? I got spoiled by all that strange warm weather. In front of the house, spring flowers blooming plus snow.

We didn't quite make it to spring flowers but it was close. This is normalish, in that it usually gets this cold a couple of times a winter, so, well... good for those melting glaciers, whatever.

No, they are not.
They hate inside, quite (http://www.talkingcock.com/html/article.php?sid=548) a lot. Hence high incidence of ulcers and stomach cancer =P
And I am going back to continue my hate on the (White) Man there...

You mistake my meaning, Madam. Singapore the city, not Singapore the people who live in the city (who are as may be.) Singapore has politely cancelled its normal suffocating heat and humidity in order to make the British visitors feel at ease. I may confidently expect a little snow should I arrive.

Mr. Angry Rooster suffers from a male syndrome that exists everywhere. 'All the gurls go for the other doodZ and they don't go for me.' Does not occur to them to look at how the Angry Roosters of the world treat women and could there possibly be a problem there oh no perish the thort... The same syndrome would exist in Japan if the guys weren't too busy working to *notice* that the gurls go for the foreign doodZ and not for them. Is why the gurls go for etc etc.

She won't cancel the humidity methinks? It (humidity) is one of the constant weather factors over there. Never below 70%.

Hm, hm, I really don't care much about Mr. Rooster personally (but career-wise, his [and also Ms. Rooster's] health is my opportunity, thus the reference to ulcer etc). But to be fair to him, the so-called Foreign Talents there really seem to spend too much of office hours in street side cafe. Bosses are easier on them, they live in service apartments, etc, etc. So it is no wonder that Mr. Foreign Talent will have more time for the poor neglected Ms. Roosters compared to Mr. Roosters? (as observed by a former Foreign Worker who was on her way to do her shopping at Kinokuniya, hee. Note the difference in terminology.)
