I have always been a lazy bloke. Don't do what needs to be done until it comes to the absolute crux. Till the very last moment. When there's no option but for that thing to be done. I don't know what I really hope for. Maybe that someone else passing by would have nothing to do and will do the job for me, and I'd be like, "Arrey, I was just about to do it."
It's strange. I am restless, I got a lot of energy, and still I'm lazy. Is it possible for a human being to be restless and lazy at the same time? It certainly is possible. I am exactly that, but how does it happen.
I think I am lazy about things that are "supposed" to be done. Things that I have to do, not those that I want to do. Maybe.
Well, apart from my arrogance, Qatar's just doubled up my laziness as well.
Today, I woke up at 8.30 am. I was dying to sleep more. Got up, looked at my watch, and I was like thank God. Got at least two hours more to sleep. I never did this in India. If I woke up, I woke up. Never tried going back to sleep again.
And those two friggin hours went by so fast. Hell. I even had a dream, that I was in my India house, getting ready to go to work in Qatar, and I was apparently late because I was in India and I was looking at the India time. I remember it was 1.05 pm in my parents room clock.
I forced myself to get up from my bed, I swear I could have slept the whole bloody day. Promised to break everything down in my house if on the weekend I don't get sleep like this. I thin k sleeping's just fun when you know you have to wake up, especially for boring work.
And then I had to put out my clothes for drying. GAWD!
I sat on my chair, looking at the pile of clothes. I wondered, what if I just leave them in the bucket itself. The washing machine dries the clothes 60%, and surely they gotta dry up sooner or later in the bucket itself right. They can't remain wet for life!!?
Thought against it though? My flatmate informed me, if I did that, my clothes would become hard like cardboard. Also that they might start stinking.
I went out to the balcony and hung my clothes to dry. How do women do all this stuff everyday man! Hats off! Seriously. Drying clothes is so friggin boring. You're just lifting clothes one by one and hanging them on a hanger, that too neatly!!!
Then I had to have a bath.
Yeah right. Screw the friggin bath. Just a whole load of deo. A WHOLE friggin load. That's the Arab way.
When in Rome do what the Romans do.
I told you so. I'm the water, taking its subject's shape while falling into it.

Laziness - Well I guess if we're not passionate about our work, we will be lazy. But then, very few people in this world get to do what they enjoy... everyday.
Sigh.. I am definitely NOT one of them :(
Or... maybe you're lazy coz you're pregnant?!
LOL
Alice... don't try to cover up. I know you even like taking them off (literally)...

Casa: Pregnant... hmm... i wonder if the chemists will give a guy a pregnancy test in Qatar. First they'll call the cops...
