I had the special company of
Pia on my way home, we even got into the same fx and talked alot about anime, prof De Castro, assignments, quizzes, and anime--uh, sorry...did I mentioned it already???
What a bore.
Anyway, before we even get to our fx, we talked about "Rain", yes, folks, Rain, as in water-form precipitation (courtesy of Ma'am geography, as I fondly call her).
Pia clearly expressed to me that whenever it rains and coincidentally she is at home she feels inspired to write or do whatever she really like to do. *Au contraire, whenever it rains and I'm at home, I feel really blue and deflated. Like a glue feeling depressed and exhausted (exactly like
*Kyo-kun!). But whenever I'm out of the house and it rains, I feel strangely spiritual and poetic. I will start muttering and thinking about transcendental things, our main purpose in life, the source of rain, where is heaven, and mystical things! Creepy, aren't I? But dude, that's just the way it goes. Kinda like the commercial of I think...Jolibee? or was it McDonalds?...aaarrggghhh! whatever fastfood it was...
Imagine me with my eyeglasses glinting and lightning splitting the sky behind me.
Pretty corny huh? of course,
Pia found it funny.
Anyway, I accompanied my mother to the grocery, said she was going to shop briefly for a chemical called Asuntol??? says it will blast the freaking fleas off our garage where our dogs had been dislodging them. If there is any insect that is as equally disgusting as a cockroach for me, that would be FLEAS, ladies and gentlemen, those cursed blood-suckers raising the hair on my skin whenever I see them slowly crawling and f*cking fat and loaded with...blech...blood.
Anyhow, back to our topic, It was hard looking for the said chemical and we had to ask for a male clerk's assistance, he looked ignorant of the goods stacked on the area he ambled away to seek a fellow clerk to help us poor people (my mother and I). Fortunately, she knew that it was out-of-stock. My mother nodded and in turn asked another product she saw, a somewhat Hygienic collar for dogs with fleas.
The clerk--or saleslady to be exact glanced at it and then explained, "Um, yan po yung nilalagay sa leeg ng aso..."
Yes, we know what a collar is.
And then she looked uneasy, obviously, she didn't know what the product does. And she began to talk in the air, muttering something incomprehensible, mumbling away.
There is really no reason why I wanted to share this nevertheless boring story. I just felt I wanted to type it, I just noticed it and I recalled it.
