The Impish Patient

My father underwent cataract surgery on his left eye two days ago. If there is one thing that is true, he is being a mighty big pain in the butt for everyone.

He keeps on doing all that he is not supposed to do. He squeezes his eyes shut tightly many times on and off, claiming that the eye itches. Football keeps him glued to the telly screen, when he is not supposed to be even watching the tv. That head of his keeps moving almost 360 degrees all the time.

I have two solutions to stop him from doing all of this. First, take a long pole and hammer it onyo his back, neck and head, so that he cant move his upper torso. Second, is to take a big log and to hit him over the head with so that we get to hear less whining and it will also get him to remain still.

...

Ever wonder how some people walk through their lives treating everyone except themselves as if we mere plebians were born just to be of service to these 'beings'. They strut around, puffing their chests out, and expect their legion of plebians to do their bidding. And nope, not a thank you or a please interjected into their commands.

These people have no sense of humility and consider themselves placed just a wee notch below God, or perhaps even at par with God.

Respect for fellow mankind is the most simplest act. Alas, it is also a two-way process. It can only be earned through humbleness and care taken in the words we speak.

Change?

Someone said to me that I have changed recently....and for the worse. Wake up call for me I guess. I wasnt even aware that I am behaving weird these days. But one thing I know for sure is that from now on, I am going to make a concious effort to think before I speak or do things and to make sure it doesnt affect the people around me. If anyone of you has been offended by me in someway, knowingly or otherwise, I sincerely apologise.

Super Healthy

I just had the most healthiest of lunches today. Had a bowl of Chicken Stew which had mushrooms, carrots, celery, some unidentified vegetables and chicken (DUH! what did you expect in chicken stew?). This came with a small bread roll. To finish off I had a small bowl of cut pineapples (really sweet ones), strawberries and kiwi fruit.

Surprisingly I feel full and the fruit actually managed to satisfy my sweet tooth. Now if only I can keep this up at least every other day....that would be a start to getting more healthy.

I think its time to start taking some care with what I put in my mouth. All sorts of illnesses are popping up these days and I dont want to become part of the statistics any time soon.

Have to get back to work now. Ciao!
