The Daily Lecture
Hey yaars,
Just got through one hell of a day! The past few weeks I've been having unusual sleeping patterns, hence after only an hour of sleep, at 9:50 AM my brother woke me up so I could drive him to work. Normally I might grunt and tell him to take the bus, but being the smart bastard he is, he intentionally waited till 9:50 because he knew it would be too late to catch a bus and make it on time - subtly forcing me to drive. While getting ready, I discover that my mother (on her week off) wants me to drop her off at her friend's, in MARKHAM!
So awakening from my slumber, I drop them both off, and come home having spent more time driving than I had sleeping. Upon coming home, I drop dead into bed and hibernate for as long as I can. But of course my panic-striken mother decides to call home every 2 hours! And me being the lazy oaf that I am, decide to ignore the calls. Finally after about the 10th call, I wake up, and leave to pick up my brother. Upon reaching home, I find she has called AGAIN, asking when we're to come over. My brother says we'll be there in about an hour. BIG mistake!
I chilled a bit before leaving, basically leaving about 90 minutes later. While in the car my mom phones about 5 times, yet since I'm driving I didn't respond. I figured since we were on the way, we'd see her in a few minutes. Upon reaching Markham, I find her outside the friend's home, with the friend's husband in the pouring rain waitng for me! Because of her I got a dual-lecture from her AND the uncle asking why I didn't pick up! I seriously think I should stop carrying a cellular phone!
Luckily the friends whose home we visited are very good friends, and managed to side-step the subject after a few minutes - chalking it all up to a generation gap (apparently I'm too CANADIAN now :P ). And of course that led to wedding talk, with everyone in the room CONVINCED that I was good-looking enough to find a Pakistani wife without having even found a job yet. I'm sure it was a tad sarcastic, but all that ego stroking has got me feeling really good about myself! Thank goodness for my light skinned lineage! And if there are any Canadian hotties who want to shout me a holla, I'm all for it as I could use the experience (though I might piss myself in the process).
Ah my life, where there's ALWAYS something humorous occuring!
