Who stole the milk?

After yesterday's food binge at Shoreline Park, aiyoh, looking at my pictures, today sure can't eat too much nonsense to add the pounds to my already gumuk figure (what figure? Blob ader ler). So gotta re-start the regiment again. Cereal-salad-cereal, in that meal order.

Couldn’t believe what happened when I get to the office this morning. This sleepy Ely was in dire need of coffee. Started the espresso machine, opened the fridge and tried to 'feel' for that milk container. Feel punya feel…eh takder lah, no sign of the milk! This means that Ely could NOT make coffee…noooooo! I knew that there was at least more than half of milk in that container before I left the office on Friday. And no…its well not over the expiration date as I bought it on Thursday. So we have a milk thief in this office! I know that its not in my department. Must be the guys from the IT department who have been using our fridge and microwave all last week.

Usually, we can be such sour grapes with the IT guys who just moved to our floor, well, they're with our company too, but they get paid more and am sure their departmental budget is higher than ours. So I became the tatter tale…went to tell my boss about the missing milk and who could the possible culprit be. He is going to talk to the supervisor at the IT department. Hopefully, this will not happen again tomorrow.

I am not sure what happened this morning, woke up with a tiny bump in at the inner corner of my left eye. If I blink, I'll feel the bump. I know it could not be my contacts. My co-worker says that it could be sty. I told her that I don’t have a pig to have a sty (Ely and her stupid answers). But I have the eyeshadow to kinda disguise the tiny bump. Maybe tembel tak? Errr nope, I can promise that I was not peeking at others taking showers.

Its 11.45am now. Day is going by fast. I have a long blog posting up my sleeve for tomorrow. Be on a lookout OK!

orang tua-tua kata, you get ketumbits sebab mengintai orang mandi! Now, Ely (and Ayu!)..you mengintai siapa ni??

if you go to the doctors, they'll give u an ointment to put under the eye.

take care!

Some of those people at AAA are like raccoons in a campsite. They'll come out when nobody's looking and eat all the food. We had our resident raccoon when I worked in ERS, named Gene Duffy. He used to visit late at night or early in the morning, before the suits arrived, and he'd help himself to everything in the fridge. We knew his patterns...Never on payday, but always the last few days of the pay period. Someone played a joke on him and put Ex-Lax brownies in the fridge. Poor Gene couldn't sit still that night at work, and we all just stayed quiet and giggled under our breath.

ayu & anedra, i think so so? ketumbit agaknya tuh. my left eye feel so irritated. now its worse maybe cos the contacts have been in my eyes for more than 10 hrs. dah pakai cermin mata, rasa mcm lega sikit. so far, doesnt look that bad yet.

nazrah, maybe i should put butter in my eye eh? hehehe

sid_presley, yeah i think the racoons have moved to the San Francisco office!

hehehhee @ sid's post - that is funny! The raccoon colony has expanded quite a bit. They seem to be almost everywhere. Best is to own a personal fridge, or if that's not affordable, I'm sure a chain and lock with key can be easily purchased from any hardware store :D and yes, entrust copies of the key to those who don't look the slightest bit like a raccoon :D

Ely, you tried eyebath? I'm not sure if that will help at all...

Oh yea, was just thinking... ummm maybe it's protein deposits from the contacts? Try not to put on contacts for a few days... and change to a new pair the next time. But then I'm no doctor, so I may be wrong lah...! :D

AuntyN said...

ketumbit, hmmm, skodeng sapa ni? Tak cukup ke skodeng David? Ish, ish? hehehehe. Anyway, I know it can be irritating. So take care.
