J’adore ‘Redeemed Salvation’ moments
The backlash came when she asked me for a redeemed salvation. Years of solitary ambiguity, months of back-tearing work, and days of endless loneliness. The day had come to an end where we shoveled out all aggravation, and we had to face our destiny. A “happy thanksgiving” broke the silence, and I zoomed in the “ROFL” artwork on my newly updated iTouch. “Are we supposed to keep quiet when so many words are buzzing around in our minds?” she asked, and continued “I was hoping for more quality time with you”. Now was the time to strike, like a force majeure announcement from an airline. I replied and said “Do you think this is negligence from my part, or is it a mutual horrifying fact that the time is the breakpoint between us?”. Seconds passed, and I gasped for breath. A spine-chilling silence eased my headache for a split second, and I simply had to continue with the strike. “Listen to me, have you heard of that quote…you know… ‘If you don’t risk anything, you risk even more’? You know the state of my mind; it’s simply waste of time to discuss over such thing”.
Yes, it was a response that easily could relieve her pain, and it worked very well I must say. The enervating mood was soon transparent when I gently passed the letter which I had received the day before. I tried to hold my breath like the day I suppressed my mind to pass through the post-op fixator removal on my hand. The letterhead met her eyes. Her eyes read the title. Her eyes blundered like swirly Perl arrays. With her eyes literally mounted to the text, she fumbled her words and said “Shit, this… this is why I cannot stop loving you…” – reading further, she continued “this is… I mean, how…” – Oops, I almost felt like I have PTSD’d her, or perhaps just fulfilled that salvation she was asking for – “I can’t find any words, but… I just want you to know…”, and the letter just slipped away from her hand, and ultimately hit the new hardwood teak parquetry as she continued – “j’adore, forever and ever”.

“Analogue Dollars for Digital Cents”
Me trying to explain about the ratio between internet and IRL; what internet business is worth compared to real life business. However, internet has greater ways of recognition for a wider audience…yeah yeah whatever. Cool quote, right? Thanks to Kevin Rose for that one! I just love quoting, but there times when the quote and the audience has a perfect timing, so it just gets a slam dunk’da funk.
“I had an affair with Hillary Clinton, now see where I am at”
Me trying to utilize the possible ways of becoming homeless by printing a catchy text screensaver for my office computer. Now, people interpret this quote as me being very unhappy with my position at the company. Lovely and catchy. Perfect for the upcoming vote-or-die campaigns. Where’s Daddy Puffy Puff Puff at?
“This sample is homo, should I control with the CE sample too?”
Now, it’s not always easy to know how to handle homo samples on the computer. I’ll try to explain…
I analyze DNA in a program, right? So this time I was analyzing a C-Genetic donor sample and found out that both Exons 2 and 3 had the same mutations, which we sumarize as homo mutation. I asked “Niclas” (which actually got this name as a counter reaction from my part when he called me “Mr Kipong” which seems to be a Korean movie character and (in real life) a handsome guy), and I hear a big Laugh Out Loud from “Harry” (getting his nickname from Harry Potter, which I have never seen (the movie that is) but the looks are identical – - off the record). Not homosexual DNA samples, but homo mutations. Learn!
“It’s bpe outside…bpe bpe”
Getting halfway down to punch out for the day around 7-8 pm I see “Ms Hooti” (the word hottie with that Southeast Asian swing in it) which actually is meant to honor her elegant looks and hyped-up glasses. I try to keep the good spirit up along the walk we’re having down to the out-puncher machine (or whatever you’d call that hi-tech hand scanner). Trying to remember the word for rain, which I knew has a bp sound (like a B-popping sound with bulging lips), I managed to say bpe which means blood. The correct word for rain is Bpi, almost like the mathematical constant π, pi.
Synopsis of the day you’d ask for, huh?
My faux pas of the day was when (1) giving a ring to my beloved co-worker (which is becoming an electronic lova’ fo’ sho’, heh) for her patience with my all-day-round mockery, (2) eating Kimchi with chopsticks and slurping a lil’ bit to blend in when they’re eating (slurping) soup, and (3) greeting Anyeo Haa-Seyo to the senior employees in the morning and Anyeo to the “kids” (my nearby associates).
Still I am carrying around a little bit anxiety when it comes to “Ms W” which seems to completely forgotten our good moments of leisure.
Regards,
Your man in the tall standing nation
