I learnt it yesterday from the mail-woman

I was at work sitting by the window looking outside since the weather was beautiful…. And then the famous small white and blue strips van shows up and gets closer – the mail van- for some reason if you see something everyday, you stop seeing it….isn’t that true ?!....Like a friend that you see every single day or maybe a co-workers or the coffee machine at work or the guy that opens the gate for you, you stop feeling their existence … weird huh… ..

So anyway the woman is like hmmmmm 50 to 55 years old wears glasses…. Skinny… and definitely wears the post office uniform – blue shorts and blue shirt with a navy blue stripe on the side….

 

This time I wanted to watch her closely to see what I’m missing everyday.

She gets close to the mail box she parks her car she stops it and take the keys off, she unbuckle her seat belt she grab the pile of mail that is coming to us she unlock her door get off the car , shut the door, lock it walks toward our box… she drops the mail in it.. and pick up the outgoing mail, she turns around walks back toward her mini van … unlock the door, sit down shut the door lock it put her seat belt start the car and moves away….

Well her job does not sound that bad, but let me tell you something here….. if I forgot to mention this : this lady got more than 1000 –thousand- stops every single day.

Yi3ni…. I get tired after filling up gas at the gas station to sit in the car and  put the seat belt back… what if I had to fill up gas 1000 time a day…( I envy those who have full service… where you don’t have to move your butt and get off your car to fill up)

 

Hahaha that brings back some memory back to my head: my “atheist friend”  one time said something about haven and hell…. He said: ‘Hell is where you find  EVERYTHING  you don’t like on earth’.  

Simple but meaningful that means if I don’t like someone… imagine that after that I die he or she will be the only one to see every minute.  Nooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooo

And if I hate a song…..over there it will keep on playing over and over and over and over………..Huge speakers following me everywhere I go…..

 After he told me that … I was like …hmmmmm  after all that girl got some nice things after all…. And that song is not as bad as I thought….. J

 

Patience…. Is beautiful….  The reason I’m writing about it is that since I was sick for the last 4 days I was unable to smoke  Argileh  and I noticed that it’s really not that hard to stop it if I really want to… since it is all mental so there would be no need to patches or pills or shots… all what it needs is a big dose of patience that I could get from those who were never treated well by life but they are happier than we are.

 

Mr. Merc

The “fever kiss”… you know what I’m talking about, for those who don’t know… let me tell you

The fever kiss is that “Zit” or “Acne” that you get inside your mouth  ( disgusting ) it’s painful it sits between your gum and your inner lip… right above your teeth…. Usually it lasts 3 days than disappears by itself… hmmmm….as a traditional,  you know… we are the gods of  herb-remedies since we knew treatment by herbs even before Chinese were born… I was taught that to  get rid of that “Fever Kiss” you need to get a few drops of concentrated Pomegranate  sauce and rub them on it….. it hurts a little bit ( that what they said) but in fact it hurts a bunch…. A LOT….. it’s like pouring a 2 liters of Alcohol on an opened bleeding wound… imagine.

But it works…( I thought it did) until yesterday…..

I got home with that pain inside my mouth…. I  flipped my lip over and looked in the mirror to see that white  round thing I was AHA… I gocha … I know how to get rid of you, you little bastard …. I  ran downstairs to the kitchen where I keep the cooking ingredients.. looked through for that famous Pomegranate sauce… luckily I found some so I grabbed it and carefully I poured 3 drops of it in a small plate ( the plate I usually use to feed Kirikou – my cat-) and I ran back upstairs to the mirror  and I dipped my finger tip in the plate It turned black…. And I softly  applied it to my “Fever Kiss” and you know what happened next… tears started dripping off  my eyes  and PAINNNNNNNNNNNNN…….

And since I’m tough.. ( at least that what I kept on convincing myself) I stayed cool and patient… until the pain went away… so I walked to my bed and I went to sleep….

This morning when I woke up……… guess what!! It was……. Yep still there not only that… I had a high FEVER too……. , I also had ( and till this moment have)  sore throat as well as flu.

 

Morale : it is called "Fever Kiss" for a reason. it's like "passionate kiss".... "good night kiss"..... "a kiss goodbye".... you should expect what comes next..

 

Mr. Merc.

Sonnet LXXXI

And now you're mine. Rest with your dream in my dream. Love and pain and work should all sleep, now. The night turns on its invisible wheels, and you are pure beside me as a sleeping amber. No one else, Love, will sleep in my dreams. You will go, we will go together, over the waters of time. No one else will travel through the shadows with me, only you, evergreen, ever sun, ever moon. Your hands have already opened their delicate fists and let their soft drifting signs drop away; your eyes closed like two gray wings, and I move after, following the folding water you carry, that carries me away. The night, the world, the wind spin out their destiny. Without you, I am your dream, only that, and that is all. Pablo Neruda

It was Beauty that killed the Beast.!

Have you seen King Kong….?

That is the best sentence in the whole movie… that’s why I guess they left it till the end.

Since there is something says: keep the best for last.

Meaningful  and true…. Specially when you have a huge heart like King Kong’s…

Weird how this body organ can ignite a spark  that could change  life for ever.. if you’re lucky you’ll survive otherwise it could be lethal .. or It could live with you just like a deep scare that only you can feel.

Why do women have smaller feet than men?
( the answer would be displayed on May 20 2006)

After putting the right answer

and since i'm getting all kind of answers..

i'll pick the funniest, the average and the silliest  answer...

 

FUNNY      :- i think because women have bigger heart so we don't need also big feet(hahahah...

                   - because hey have bigger brain...for equilibrium.

                   - cause we r smarter it's obvious tata

AVERAGE :  UMMMM I DONT KNOW Y

SILLY        : i think it's bcs ur body is bigger so u need bigger feet

                  

 

and the answer is:  So they can stand closer to the sink ( and wash  dishes )

Those were the days, my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we choose
We'd fight and never lose
For we were young and sure to have our way
La la la la la la
La la la la la la

Then the busy years went rushing by us
We lost our starry notions on the way
If by chance I'd see you in the tavern
We'd smile at one another and we'd say

Those were the days, my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we choose
We'd fight and never lose
Those were the days
Oh, yes, those were the days
La la la la la la
La la la la la la

Just tonight I stood before the tavern
Nothing seemed the way it used to be
In the glass I saw a strange reflection
Was that lonely woman really me?

Those were the days, my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we choose
We'd fight and never lose
Those were the days
Oh, yes, those were the days
La la la la la la
La la la la la la

Through the door there came familiar laughter
I saw your face and heard you call my name
Oh, my friend, we're older but no wiser
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same...

Those were the days, my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we choose
We'd fight and never lose
Those were the days
Oh, yes, those were the days
La la la la la la
La la la la la la

We human must be glad that god does not grant us all what we wish for...

 

 Since  i'm working on my (1000 and 2 nights)...I’ll tell you this story...

            One day an airplane crashed in the desert, miraculously three ( Arab )men survived the crash..

They spent 3 days wandering in the desert, until one day they saw a castle -(not the Wa7ash ‘s castle)- they ran to see if there is anybody there that would help them…. They knocked on the huge door …suddenly  a big Genie opened and invited them in…. after they told him what brought them there…The sweet Genie felt bad for them… so he took them to a room where there was a huge swimming pool filled with crystal crisp water….

They were so glad to see the water after a 3 days of thirst …immediately they wanted to jump in it but the Genie held them back and told them… “ my dear friends… this pool is not everything… it’s only a part of my gift to you …. The special thing about this pool is that before you jump in,  you make a wish… and any thing you wish for… you would find waiting for you inside it….

The amazed men did not believe what they heard … so the Genie asked the first one to make his wish and jump in …

That guy looked inside that pool and said : let there be naked gorgeous women from all different type and color…., and ran, and jumped off the diving board right in  the pool…. “Pufff” and there was it…. Women from all sizes color and shape….. people on Mars could hear that guy’s laughs …” 7arimzzz 7arimzzz jamilat..hahahahaha”

The other two men did just not believe what they were seeing …

The second man was very excited… so he ran off the board wishing to find Gold coins surrounding him…. And “Puffff” there was the gold.. a huge pool filled with Gold … again people on Mars could hear he laughs “Zahab Zahab…hahahaa”….

Now… the third man’s turn….he had a lot to think of before he jumps off the board… so he started running… and while he was about to pronounce his wish… he was about to slip off the board so what he said was: “ w-a##”…..

And there was a huge One taking the whole pool waiting for him to land on it…” also people on mars could hear that man SCREAMING….NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

(Beware what you wish for)
