The few days leading up to Christmas were memorable. It was mayhem at the workplace. Everyone's cranky from sleep deprivation, having kept late nights wrapping Christmas presents. A colleague took medical leave two days ago and just being one man short slothed the entire office routine.
Yesterday morning, there was evidence of murder in my kitchen. As I was about to leave for work, I saw two cockroach legs. The rest of the roach was no where to be seen. I just hoped it's digesting in the cats' bellies instead of having been pushed under the fridge or somewhere else rotting to attract ants and more creepie crawlies.
That very morning, there is a dead roach on my table at work too, next to the phone under the barcode scanner. And am I to trust my dear friend's marketing spin to the scenario from a feng shui perspective ….
“You are a blessed individual. Good fortune smiles on your new year as the Gods of Fortune smile down on you. As their ever radiant sunshine warms up your cold barren field, its purges all bad things from your life. You will find that all the unclean and unlucky events in your life (represented by the quintessential roach) will come to the forefront and be swept away for good by those around you (both cats and humans beings) instead of remaining hidden and infesting your life. As a result of this cleansing process, you are able to open up these areas in your life and experience the good fortune that the Gods have in store for you. Be prepared for a great year ahead!”
.....so lets hope I leave Year 2007 with its dark deary potholed alleys of weary attempts behind.
