12th of March…

Not a public holiday…
Nor is it a day filled with world events…
Which are not particularly important to me.

But it’s a day that marks another month for us, dd and me…
And coincidentally happened to be the same day as our first date

… lose your significant other, to someone of the same sex as partner or someone of the opposite?

Strange topic / question, right?

My colleagues (mainly ladies) and i were discussing about this over lunch and it really got everyone of us thinking, commenting and wondering. Half of them would rather lose to someone of the opposite sex (meaning, losing to another girl) and the other half of us, would rather lose to someone of the same sex (meaning, same sex as our significant other / partner).

Interesting 50/50 result.
Especially when the results come from singles, attached and married ladies in our team… and not forgetting our only guy in the team.

I could understand why those who rather lose to the opposite sex feel. To them, at least their partner is still considerably normal, being shallow for liking someone with a nicer figure or looks and not doing something which they deemed as weird or disgusting (note: safer thinking).

As for me, I feel I’d rather lose to someone of the same sex as my partner.
Reason, at least I know there’s nothing I can do to change myself to his change of heart and somehow I think I can live with that, if ever that happens. But not to another girl, as I would question if everything done was insufficient.

Same goes for the other half of the team.

Like one of my colleagues said, if that really happens, I would try to be friends with that person and love to accept him as he love my partner. Idealistic, but it could work.

Issue: would that person think, feel and act the same way?

Something to think about, on a slow midweek workday

I was doing my grocery shopping earlier with DD when we spotted these.

A totally partially exposed chocolate easter egg and broken easter bunny, that’s on the shelf.
I’m pretty sure the supermarket staff didn’t play punk, just to have a laugh but some itchy handed consumer certainly did. Someone who’s overly curious to know what is in it.

Whoever did this, it’s not funny.

It’s never appropriate to open up a merchandise (be it food or anything) and leave it out in the open, giving pests a chance to crawl over it and knowing kids would be curious to touch or taste it. Which 2 kids actually did, touching it and almost tasting it.

And there was another incident, which i found a packet of freshly grounded beef, having the protective plastic cover poked through by another goon (totally different issue and at different supermart).

To all, please do not be so inconsiderate and tamper with food.
If you don’t have the intention to buy or even if you are just pissed off, don’t take it out on food as it could cause food poisoning if someone were to purchase and consume it.

Received a call from the branch, appreciate their fast response

March 8.
IWD, short for International Women’s Day.

It is a major day of global celebration of women. In different regions the focus of the celebrations ranges from general celebration of respect, appreciation and love towards women to a celebration for women’s economic, political and social achievements. – Wikipedia

So to all the other women out there (aside from myself), thank you for all that you have done.
Thank you.
