notes to myself!

So the parents have left on holiday only for 2 weeks mind you however I have a list of instructions that will last me a whole year to complete!

• Double lock the door at all times
• Don't come home alone
• Don't leave the house after you come in
• Pay the maid
• Clean the house
• Do the washing
• Buy food
• Eat Food
• Go to the Dentist
• Put off the AC if using it
• Don't use the AC
• Keep the third room closed
• Have friend's stay over
• Get online everyday
• Don't call

what the hysterical part is they left this morning and I have a bad throat already! It's like I wait till my parent's leave to fall sick- I've always done it - then I will struggle through - go to the doctor by myself etc etc. I remember this one time I was not well, did all of the above and carried on through life and the minute I opened the door to my mother, I collapsed and was ill for 2 weeks!

I've been living a very peaceful life I think with very little drinking forget excess! In fact a couple of weekends ago - I was out till 5 and I managed with one vodka-oj the whole night - of course there were the cokes and the Fresh lime soda to see me through but still....I've been watching very little TV and of course no movies [grrrr!!] but on the whole I think in the last year, I've read more than I had in the year before - so there was some benefit to changing the job - at the very least it gave me time for my life and everybody knows the best thing I got out of it!

Coming back to my mom's list, after she repeated it to me at least 5 times in the last month, I finally snapped and noted that this is not the first time that they are going on vacation ever consdiering they are out of town every 3 months or so - and plus I have lived away from home for 3 years so it's not like I'm absolutely incapable of looking after myself - I admit I don't exhibit the signs much but wtheyyy I don't need to!! A couple of days ago, there was no food in the house and my mom was exhausted so I got down to making myself scrambled eggs and my parents came to the kitchen to stare in wonder at this feat. I was like Dude just coz I don't doesn't mean I don't know and at the end of the day in response to the million queries of what will u do when u get married - Have phone, will eat!!
