Hmm, SBS has cut to streaming coverage of this Indian Ocean earthquake thing and is just devastating to watch - almost 7000 guesstimated death toll currently - no doubt is going to go higher, and more and more reports coming in from all over the region saying that the situation is currently chaotic. Getting more and more depressed by it, but it is news, it is worth knowing, so am watching it.
However, at the same time, V was trying to talk to me, after having a BBQ and a few beers - I was a bit distracted by the TV, and getting more and more into a depressive state, which led to her showing more of her insecurities, about Canada, about skinny girls in general and everything, and I was just not up to a thousand reassurances, a hundred perhaps yes, but a thousand grrr - will have to call her soon no doubt (only one phone line into the house, net or phone not both) when I have turned the TV off and stuff, not one of those situations you can leave til the morning...
Geez I hate long distancing - but at least I understand what effort goes into it... how did I end up with this again, when I said the FIRST long distance never again, and a second and now potentially (depending on what definition you give the V and me thing) a third - how did it happen?
Laterz, tomorrow morning methinks

I'm a Malaysian, now in the US for a year now and it sent shivers down my spine to hear about the quake and tidal waves.
ReplyDeleteMy family is down south on the peninsula and had the Indonesian island of Sumatra to buffer the tidal waves, but my mom's family is in Penang, which was hit worst. Still trying to contact them.
