City Living = Horrible traffic!
My usual one-hour commute time from work turned into a grueling three and a half-hour journey towards home. The whole length of Espana Boulevard was congested with traffic. Quezon Avenue (Welcome Rotonda to Araneta stretch) was equally worse. I had to change vehicles at Welcome Rotonda because the bus personnel opted to take E. Rodriguez Avenue as it offered better traffic flow. I ended up sitting inside a passenger jeepney with a dozen men staring at my clevage (yes, I have one, thanks to wonderbra), and a huge water stain at my left pant butt cheek, no thanks to the rainwater dripping from the windows of the jeepney.
The almost four-hour journey was so unnerving that I called my little sis, making an excuse to know her whereabouts, when in truth I just wanted to keep my sanity in check by hearing a familiar voice amidst the sea of unfamiliar faces. I had nothing else to do but wait, wait and wait. Patience, is not my virtue. And as I learned for quite some time now, doing nothing for an extended period of time drives me nuts! I realized, i need to install games in my mobile phones or bring a paperback every time I go out just in case something similar to this happens again.
Thanks to Baby Garnet, my mood improved upon reaching home... I really love my baby dog!
p.s.
It wasn't a very good day for me. Salary was just transferred by boss from his bank in Aussie. I would be lucky to have it in my account by tomorrow.
But it is worse for my friend. She just lost her dad today in a manner so unacceptable, that it is so heartbreaking.
