BC - Christmas in June

I just had to write this. My lady boss' manicurist is wearing the brightest (?) combination my eyes have ever seen in the past few months - a bright yellow green blouse over red capri pants. Okay, I'm being mean. But my eyes just can't take it (nor does my fashion sense). Not that I'm a walking fashion plate. Due to last night's power interruption, I had no choice but to wear no-wrinkle clothes - which just happen to be a reddish-brown blouse and a chocolate brown pair of pants. I look like a a darned walking chocolate bar! Remind me to do my laundry and ironing earlier next time. =(

Boylet - A Definition

First things first. Let's define both words: boy - (noun) a male child from birth to puberty -let - (noun) suffix ,small one Therefore a boylet is a small boy? Not. As some blogs metioned, at first take you's think the same way too. However, the origin of the language came from gay-speak for "fling material", like asking "Saan ba may boylet dito?" A boylet is neither boy nor boyfriend. A boylet is not a boyfriend with commitment rights and all that the title entails. The boylet does not have a committed relationship to the object of lust (or affection, however you put it). For all intents and purposes, a boylet is a casual fling. He's there for sex. And maybe a friendly ear and occasional (hot) date as well. But it's never an affair of the heart. There are unwritten rules, you know. Now some people may ask, "a casual fling? But why?". Just because. Sometimes, you just want it without worrying about issues like commitment and maintenance

Just because...

Just because... ... I haven't referred to the incident for three decades doesn't mean I forgot it. ... it happened when I was a child doesn't mean it does not affect me as an adult. ... there was no penetration doesn't mean the abuse didn't happen. ... they were doing drugs does not excuse what they did. ... it wasn't my fault doesn't mean I'll feel clean for the rest of my life. ... I chose to ignore them does not mean I've forgiven them.  ... I was a victim doesn't mean I'll spend the rest of my life helpless. ... it happened to me doesn't mean I cannot forge meaningful relationships with others. There is such a thing as karma and I know they will eventually burn for eternity. I chose to rise above the situation and I deserve my happiness.

My rather micro-managing wishy-washy of a client was at it again earlier giving conflicting instructions. As usual, I grinned and bore it. And wished to high heavens I could start applying for a new gig elsewhere. Don't get me wrong, I like the client, it's just that that client has its moments. And today was one of them. And yes, I like a bit of direction as well but when you're running hot and cold at the same time it really gets to my nerves. If only I didn't have this sense of responsibility I'd have left that client high and dry. But no, the person doesn't really deserve that so I'll play nice until I really finish this project. And in the meantime, just to calm my temper, I'm going to look at those job ads again. =p
