1) Being in "bedroom arrest" makes me do stuff to keep boredom at bay: watching “Hoarders”, “Intervention” and “Paranormal Fakes or Facts”, playing cell phone games, staring into space, and going back to sleep. It's hard to be a couch potato. I should rock the boat and be a bed tomato instead. Yes, I know. My mixed metaphors suck.
2) Ten days after the surgery and I'm feeling much better. The pain medication still makes me drowsy so I can't really watch any kind of movie. I can only tolerate 30-minute sitcoms or watch semi-stupid reality shows till I feel like puking. My head hurts more than my tummy. So if you want to aid in my recovery, stop reposting positive thoughts with grammatical errors. Naman eh.
3) Being temporarily disabled due to my recent surgery makes me drawn to tabloid news and reality shows. Ramona Bautista, please go back to Pinas! Cable TV, please stop airing marathons of "Tough Love in Miami." I need to read more books by Sedaris and Palahniuk but after remembering what one of my bosses said (Watching reality shows makes me feel intelligent!), I'm inclined to take the reality plunge with a bag on my head.
4) It's Saturday Night. I should be out and living the life but noooo! I'm glued to VH1’s "Champions of Cute." Lots of cute viral videos: baby doing the salsa, cat modeling a fedora hat with Mommy Pussy about to give him a paw smack, and the penitent and honest dog voluntarily going to a kennel for a time-out after his owner found out he (the dog) ate all the doggy treats. Sooo adorable and I'm … go figure.
5) 544 employees will be attending our company Christmas party at our hotel tonight. I am not one of the 544 people who are going to this holiday shindig. Uh, it's Thursday night. "The Big Bang Theory" is on at 8pm. Yes, I'm aDORKable.
