Mum

i purposedly took leave today to clean the house. i didnt do it during the weekend because i was practically out of the house most of the time. either that or i was simply lazy to use the little time i have for that. i asked mum what time she'd be arriving and she said just like last time 1 pm. i didnt ask for details and i assumed its 1 pm my time, hence my decision on taking full day instead of half day of leave. promised my workmates that i'd be going back later so that we can still do the run prior to dinner at seoul garden (i told them few days ago about me missing eating here and one said she'd treat us there as she just got her 10 years long-service award). but i just checked the website and apparently the plane is scheduled to land at 4.15 pm! called mum and she said 1pm is departure time in jakarta. faint. i could've just take 1/2 day leave, go home and do some quick cleaning before fetching her eh. she insisted on me continuing with my plan though as she could take a taxi home, mum being mum. oh well, i will just cancel the run later.
but still, if i take 1/2 day today i can take another 1/2 day tomorrow to accompany her to the hospital. jakarta is pretty amusing, she went to the hospital (a private one some more) to get vaccination prior to her trip - thyphoid, flu, polio. no polio vaccination available, furthermore the doctor is in a meeting hence no one could do it that she decided to get it here instead. so funny.
oh well, i have to stop dreaming of having mie ayam pangsit for lunch since she won't be here that early and start thinking what to cook for breakfast cum lunch. and of course, start doing what i'm supposed to do - cleaning...
