Yesterday my beloved Opee passed away. I knew it was coming soon just was not prepared for this soon… He was in so much pain and could hardly stand. The emergency vet said that he should just lie down still because of his pain and only go on very short walks (just to do his business) and that it would…

So, I am vulnerable now to admit that I have to stop drinking alcohol. I will record my journey here. So far I am tapering as the side effects are just too much. I used to drink three bottles a day and now I am on 1.5. I am proud of myself even though it is a slow way to…

Today’s task was to “buy your own grain of sand in the Bahamas.” Apparently, there is a price range: 1. Grain of sand near the beach toilets – $1 (convenient but no. there will be so many people stomping on it) 2. Grain of sand under a palm tree – $2 (tempting as it is hot but don’t want to…

Today’s task was to “ensure your best features.” This is what I thought to ensure: Nose (cute) — value $5,890. Premium $54.03 a month (surely I can afford it since I don’t have a car payment and it is less than I pay for a car monthly). Smile– Value $1,545. Premium $23 a month (totally doable provided I can do…

Today’s task was to “test if you are a psychopath.” Here is a test: 1. Glibness and superficial charm (somewhat true. I tend to use it on strangers I have to meet at gatherings at a bar.) 2. Grandious sense of worth (Not true. I have a bad case of impostor syndrome and am generally insecure about 6’1″ in height.)…

Today’s task was “to work out what your dreams are telling you to do and do it.” Well, here is my dreamland (I looked it up): 1. Clouds — there are problems at work. go on vacation. (yey. I am so overdue!). 2. Falling — your fear of failure. Don’t do anything today. (great! I am all for not doing…

Today’s task was short — “kiss mother Earth.” However, it was not easily achieved as we got like 10in of snow so I had to dig deep and then be afraid that my lips will stick to the earth just like tongues to poles in Alaska. First thing first, I don’t have a shovel. What to do? I guess I…

Today’s task was to “eat nothing but meat.” I have to say that there is only so much meat I can eat but I buckled up for this task. Here is my menu: Breakfast: 6 sausages with ketchup — Yey on this one! I love ketchup! Lunch — 2 to 3 burgers (hello McDonald’s! No bans for me. I fed…

Today’s task was to “leave a trail behind me, Hensel and Gretel style.” I decided on candy and thumbtacks, and chalk markings. We walk in different neighborhoods and I decided to leave a different trail in each. I thought people will either pick up candy (the best outcome) and thumbtacks (everybody needs those at some point or other). The chalk…

Today’s task was to “ask Bill Gates for money.” Miraculously the book provided his address: c/o Bill Gates, Microsoft, Redmond, WA 98052 (in case you would like to also ask him for money). I still have stamps left from another task so it is easy to mail without a trip to the post office. The book suggested including your bank…
