"You should wear heels more," a friend told me matter-of-factly. "It makes you look sexier."
I can't do heels 50% of the time, I say back. I looked at her pointy-toed, fashionably high stilletoes and thought, naah.. I'm doing fine with my comfy, yellow flats.
Why must we have to subject ourselves to pain to cheat looking fab?
I can be pretty with my soles closer to the earth, right?
Let's propose a revolution against heels.
Comfort over pain. No more pretense. No more calluses.
Beauty minus pain..

A couple of my friends have a shirt that says:
they lied to us
this was supposed to be the future
where is my jetpack
where is my robotic companion
where is my dinner in pill form
where is my hydrogen fueled automobile
where is my nuclear powered levitating house
where is my cure for this disease?

I can't remember feeling this unmotivated before. The lethargy, the overwhelming desire to not get up from bed.. That overpowering urge to skip the bus and to head on somewhere except my office cubicle.
I should blame it all on this wonderful London weather we're having. Gray skies, damp, wet, and somewhat mucky -- the hanging promise of misery and tragedy. I love it. This is exactly the type of weather the Bronte's were so fond of writing about. The one thing practically missing is a moor.
Except instead of that, I have a cubicle farm. Sigh.

5 Reasons Not To Get Up To Go To Work On A Friday Morning
1. The probability rate of running into Johnny Depp is nil.
2. The ozone layer has a hole as big as South America and the risk of getting skin cancer is
reduced if I stay in bed.
3. Exerting too much physical effort may lead to brain aneurysm.
4. The North Koreans are launching a missile anytime soon. I'd rather be home if doomsday
happens.
5. Taking lungfuls of air in EDSA is not in any way beneficial to anyone's health.
