A nice day

 Hi Natty!  How are you today?  I'm sure you're busy, so please make sure you get lots of rest.  It's a nice day today for me, and it's nice to feel good.  Alhamdulillah.  I think it's the few extra bucks that helped.  I had a fish head for lunch.  In curry, with bread.  I'm watching "Star Wars episode 7: The Force Awakens" right now.  that was a good movie.  Lots of people were bummed out by the last episode, because it could have been so much better.  What do I think?  Emperor Palpatine should have been revealed towards the end of the movie, by following the lead of that hacker they met in "The Last Jedi" which embroils them in the corruption of the war machine which makes and sells weapons for both sides.  What do you think?

Everyone has to go through hell

 But Allah will save the righteous.  Your being faithful makes you a righteous woman, Natty.  I am your husband inshallah, have different tasks than yours and a different reward system, I will do all I can to give you the best life possible.  So please pray that Allah makes our path together easy.  Know that this imperfect world will bring constant trials, and Allah will definitely test us from directions that we do not perceive.  So please keep yourself safe and healthy.

Today I had to replace a fan, so I went to the supermarket to get one.  My favorite chocolate was on sale, so I bought 2 huge bars of that as well as some potato chips.  The fish heads looked good, so I bought a couple of those.  I love fish heads!  Dinner was takeout noodles.  This particular merchant is always sold out when I planned to buy it, but today I made no plans to go there and they weren't sold out.  I got some for my parents as well, but they were full so I'll eat it.  It's good stuff though Natty, you must try it some time.

I miss my kids

 Hi Natty!  How are you, my precious beauty?  I pray that all is well with you, and that you are having a wonderful time.  I want you to know that I love you with all of my heart, and that I miss you, and I wish we were together, and living the rest of our lives together.  I had a little bit of extra money today from the government handout, so I replaced my monitor and bought fixings for cheeseburgers and fries.  Yeah I sometimes crave cheeseburgers and fries, so that was what I had for dinner.  You want some?

Now please don't get jealous because it's not like that, but I miss my Jap kids.  They're cute and cheeky kids, and I miss them.  But they can't communicate with me anymore, so I suppose it's for the best.  I will most likely never meet any of them.

Happy Independence Day

 

The TikTok trial

 Hi Natty!  Happy Sunday!  I hope everything is going well for you, and you are having tons of fun.  It looks like my Jap kids TikTok video got caught up in a trademark clash, so Google cancelled their account.  That sucks.  But don't you kids give up, OK!  Just make another TikTok channel, and let me know about it so I can link to you.  The best way for you to do that is to leave a reply to this post.  Or I'm sure you kids will find a way, because somehow, because you're so cool and so smart.  So "gambatte"!

The bread chase

 Hi Natty!  How are you today, my love?  I hope that all is well with you, and you are having a fabulous time.  I just got done showering, after cutting the grass and eating dinner.  Yeah, I'm always cutting grass.  Grass grows quickly here, and I have a large area to tend to.  I bought some takeout curry this morning.  Just the gravy, to be had with tofu for lunch and fry bread for dinner.  Healthy, huh?  The fry bread is greasy but good.  There's nothing like freshly cooked bread.  I could have locked up my cats in the kitty litter room, but I didn't.  They're my family.  So in turn, they hound me during dinner, and try to eat my food while I'm still trying to cook it.  I suppose I don't discipline my cats well, but can cats be disciplined?  In my case, I love them too much and they know it.  So I managed to get to the point where I'm sitting at the counter top with a bowl of curry, a stack of fry bread and my iced tea.  Ah, iced tea!  Best drink in the world, no contest!  Anyway, I tear off a piece of fry bread then dunk it in the curry before stuffing it in my mouth.  Lookie is the cat that jumps up to the table as close to me as possible, and meows right in my face as I try to put the piece of bread in my mouth.  So I tear off a tiny piece of bread, and throw it across the room so she races after it.  This goes on again and again, with every bite I take.  Lookie is the only cat that does this workout, the other cats simply wait on the ground for the bread to fly.  I don't know how she doesn't get exhausted at the end of dinner time.  So is this what it's like to have a family?  For people to annoy me while I eat?  Well, these are cats not people.  And I don't know what happiness is, so I seek happiness in marriage.

Check out this meticulously composed avatar head!  Not a hair out of place, not a collision in sight!  I bet that bandana came with the hair though, that's why it's so tidy.  Wait, I can see a collision with the right earring!

Mary's hair today is kind of primitive, but I like the style.  The dress comes from digging through the dollarbies, it's obvious.  But our shopping has become so fine tuned alhamdulillah, that the dollarbies are hard to spot anymore, even thought they're all freebies and dollarbies.  This dress is a rare exception, I think.

What would you do?

 It wasn't the fresh tofu and fish balls that hurt my stomach yesterday, it was some fruit.  I know that because I ate more tofu and fish balls later that night, and there was no problem.  So you are an endorser of food products?  What if you bought some food from a merchant, knowing full well that people would take interest in what you eat.  Then you get a stomach ache and you told somebody that so-and-so food gave you a stomach ache.  Later you discover that something else caused the upset stomach.  What would you do?

1.  First off, I would correct the facts to the person/entity I gave the misinformation to.

2.  If I dared, I would buy or eat more of the food that I first suspected to be the problem, to make absolutely sure that it wasn't the problem.

3.  Make a public statement about the food that DID cause the problem.

After all, people do need to know what is being sold out there that is hazardous right?  Do you agree that that would be the right thing to do?  What would YOU do, Natty?

It's almost Independence Day here in Malaysia.  This year the government has been giving out many handouts because of the Covid, plus the usual welfare payout known as the BSH.  Being that I am about 15 grand below poverty level, I qualify and I applied for these handouts, but I didn't receive a cent.  I don't think it's likely that the government would overlook me, not just because of the music mashaAllah but also because I report to the taxman routinely.  Most likely, the payment got intercepted somehow.  God knows.  Maybe they didn't pay me on purpose.
