The Cardigans
- I was planning on wearing my favourite cardigan to the workshop. The room was so cold yesterday (4 air-cons in one room!!) that I thought I'd better be prepared today.
- I woke up and looked for the cardy in it's usual place (hanging by the bed). I couldn't find it.
- Then I had this horrifying thought that the maid had put it in the washing machine and then the dryer.
- So I ran (for dear life) to the laundry room and much to my (shock) horror, my cardy was tumbling in the dryer!!
- My EURO300 cashmere cardy!!!!
- I quickly switched off the dryer expecting my beloved cardy shrunk to the size of a newborn.
- Thank God it was not!
- Turned out that the dryer had only just started since the cardy was still damped.
- Luckily also, it managed to survive the washing machine. The maid must have set the washing machine on cold wash.
- There must be a guardian angel out there! Thank you! Thank you! Thankyouverymuch!
The "Survivor" Cardigan
Coldcut
- Once I got over the shock and trauma of my cardy, I realised that I have come down with a flu.
- Darn! The panadol I took last night didn't seem to be helping.
- So had to spend the whole day sniffing in the classroom and tissue stuffed up my nose (much to my colleagues distress).
High & Dry
- Apart from trying to avoid nasty liquids dropping out of my nose, I was also having trouble trying to keep drool from dropping out of my mouth.
- The topic du jour was just so dry and boring.
- At one point I thought I was in a Maths class. To think I had thought about specialising in remuneration. Pah!
Sesame Street was brought to you by the words:
- Arithmatics - Now that's one word I have not heard in a long time. Who uses it in this day and age? Whatever happened to Maths?
- Dichotomy - According to Yahoo! Education:
di·chot·o·my (d-kt-m) KEY NOUN: pl. di·chot·o·mies
Division into two usually contradictory parts or opinions: "the dichotomy of the one and the many" (Louis Auchincloss).
