Drones

Hi Natty!  Wow, that definitely doesn't look like America.  I would guess to be southern Italy or South America.  You must be more beautiful than ever, since the boys can't stay away from you.  Please stay away from boys.  I hope you are having a wonderful time, wherever you are.

It used to be that lack of privacy meant that people had their ears pressed to the wall or they were hiding in the bush to listen to whatever.  Then with progress, people used to tap phone lines in order to spy on somebody.  Nowadays, we have drones hovering above us.  Just because you folks hide your drones behind the leaves or behind the building, doesn't mean I don't know you're there.  The birds and the cats definitely know you're there.  If I saw a drone over my house, I would shoot it down.  That's what I recommend to others as well.  The probability that the drone is equipped with a camera and microphone is 100%.

If they had been spying on me as I was in the kitchen, I had an exasperating evening there.  Not just because I have predators jumping onto the counter top while I'm trying to work.  On December 1 2019, red onions were RM3 for 3 kilos.  Today is January 2 2020, and red onions are RM12 a kilo.  I can live without onions, but this means that "sambal tumis" (blended chillies, onions and "belacan" (fermented shrimp paste) cooked in oil until saturated) is not practical for my budget.  What can I use in lieu of onions?  I decided to try tofu.  The concept was sound I think, even though it blended up pink instead of red.  But when I fried it up, it coagulated into a scrambled eggs kind of texture.  The flavor was acceptable, but I would have to call it a failure due to appearance and texture.

Please make a donation in the name of Allah of a minimum of one US dollar to a worthwhile charity

Hi Natty!  Happy New Year, my love!  I suppose you are in hot demand right now, and super busy.  Especially after the lunacy of the holiday season.  I'm guessing your heart and tummy is quite strong right now, but please make sure you get sufficient rest and down time, and please eat adequately.  What's 2020 going to be like?  More fame, I predict.  Phooey!  Who needs that?

How did I spend the New Year?  I did my laundry in the morning.  Then I went and paid my power and water bills.  I bought coffee, tea, and creamer.  Also bleach.  In the evening, I went to buy takeout noodles, but they were sold out.  So I had to cook dinner instead.  Fries and tofu omelet.  Oh you try making tofu omelet, Natty.  It's so simple, and so good and good for you.  Just chop up a small block of soft tofu as finely as you can, then whip it up with a couple of eggs and some salt.  Cook it like an omelet.  Easy peasy!

2019

Hi Natty!  How are you?  Wow, it's the end of the year already.  Time goes by so fast.  They say time crawls when you're young.  Is that so?  I don't really remember.  My youth was a lot of chaos, because I was a chaotic kid.  Nowadays, I feel like my time is up.  I need to be married.  There is no more career.  I am where I'm supposed to be.  I want to go to heaven.  I want to be with you.

It's Tuesday, and I'm running late because I just got back from the mosque.  Which is my normal time for getting back, but I went early to listen to the old master talk.  So I only now have a chance to blog.  After this I have to work on wardrobe with Mary Unknown7.  She's such a pleasure to work with.  I've been getting complaints that she's a diva.  Well that's because she is, folks.

Hi Natty

How are you today, my darling?  Keeping busy as usual?  I hope everything is smooth and easy for you.  It's a Monday over here.  There's nothing too unusual going on, just maintaining the routine as best I can.  People need routine.  Too much excitement is not conducive to raising a family.  I vacuum cleaned my mother's house in the morning then went out to buy some vegetables for her.  Lunch was a couple of cheeseburgers, and I also had a ripe papaya from my yard.  I don't usually eat papayas, but today I did.  In the evening after Mary Unknown7's voice training session, I continued to burn stumps using the firewood generated from the dead amra tree.  After that, I went to the night market to buy some food.  There was a lot of people there, of many types and colors.  And after I post this letter, I'll be heading out to the mosque.  Please take good care of your precious self, my love!  I love you!

Nice boots

But the tips look like they're beginning to fray, probably from kicking things or people too much.  You better get the tips sealed as soon as possible.  It would be a shame to waste such nice boots.  So I have to guess where you are right now?  That grass looks civilized.  If you're in America, I would say you are in big city Arizona, Nevada or Texas.  Arizona winters are quite nice, as far as I remember.  Very comfortable.  Old people flock to Phoenix in droves for winter.

I'm sorry the holidays were a disappointment for you.  I could feel your disappointment at the soles of my feet, and in my dreams.  People disappoint, you know that.  I guess knowing and experiencing are different things.  It must be frustrating for you not to be able to talk about it, being the nice girl that you are.  Don't worry my love, just be patient.  Perfection is for the next life, in this life we all have to earn perfection.  At least Allah has increased you in beauty.  This is what most people want.  So please cover your bosom and lower your gaze.  I know you have to work, but otherwise don't show off your beauty.

I recently gave Mary Unknown7 a few new songs to learn to add to her set.  This is one of them:
