Me and My Merlot

Saturday night no where to go. Just me and a bottle of Merlot, the old T42 and my room.

Having being disappointed by the weather this noon, where it rains when I was just preparing to wash my Shit-mobile, I somehow feel extreme bored. I tried to commit my Star Wars film and special documentaries marathon that I planned when buying the DVDs in Amcorp Mall. But I was disappointed again to find that the DVD for Episode 1 has some distortion. For now I have no idea if it is because the DVD player is going ya-ya, for the DVD is just plain bad.

Pissed of, I brought my Thinkpad to the living room, as my room has no fan and my mum just advice me last night we gotta save energy i.e. money; so don't switch on the air-cond that often. Yeah right, the machine is here as home deco. Brilliant.

To add a little salt to the pain I was having, I heard a SMS just received by my phone. Even there is a moment that I imagine that maybe my friend just text to gather us for mamak, but I know better that most likely it is my manager. Well, being a self proclaimed disciple of Holmes, I was right.

Apparently a big shot in SG just email the "Brother" last night around 9 pm that we received a huge order from Indon BP (BP? I'm no longer doing for BP!). And what interesting is the Brother only forwarded it to my manager and us this noon, and my manager only told me about this around 3 something.

Great, so all the ASEAN OA is not available, and I am stupid enough to reply her text. But having made a very huge stupid mistake last week, I might as well use this to redeem myself.

Well, to make story short, things got settle at 8 sharp. Of course I did not work from 3 to 8, but there was some ding-donging around and by the time I settle it, I also settle to spend the rest of my Saturday in the virtual world.

So to makes thing interesting a bit, I open my Merlot. I'm not at all knowledgeable about wine, but I just enjoy all kinds of alcohol beverage. I had Chinese Gao Liang on Thur day, beers on Friday and today wine makes a good choice. Liquor is strong but hot, beer is cooling, nice when we are thirsty and hot, wine for me, has more depth, dry, sweet, sour, fruity...all in a single sip...how nice. And its 13% alcohol level is in between Chinese Gao Liang (62%) and beer (5%). It does not burns like Gao Liang and has no gas like beer. It is relatively easy to drink, and when you drink, all you can do is only concentrate on the taste, cause you need not to prepared yourself to react to the burning alcohol of liquor or the gas of beer.

I thought I want to start working on the "Anatomy of A Porn Movie", but recent development on the fuel price distracts me a lot. I also think it is necessary to write a few related entry to prepare my visitor on the post. Well, at least I need to make them used to and comfortable with words like penis, breast / boob, vagina, slut, fuck etc. If not just working on how to refers to those body parts without the hint of obscenity is enough to shrunk my brain to the size of a testicle.

So its already 2.35. If I tell my friend I stayed this late,they must think I'm watching Euro. Frankly speaking, my football fever only attacks once every 4 years, during World Cup. So in between this period, I'm just a geek with zero knowledge on the current world of sports....
