心的频道:开工大吉


今天虽然如常七点前就到办公室,但开启了电脑却先不做工,一直到七点过后才默默在心里念了一句 “开工大吉!” 后才正式开始工作。

是的,我等那开工吉利的时辰。

农历新年也特地拿假到吉日才开工。

我知道啦,某某风水师说只要吉日吉时开电脑发个电邮意思意思就行。

但我比较老土,觉得那样很没有诚意、很假很虚伪,也根本不是我正常的工作模式。

我相信开工吉日是要在我平时正常工作的情况下度过,一整年才会有好预兆的。

我才不要一整年工作就只是开电脑发电邮而已咯…


越老越迷信。

这几年开始选吉日才开工,不像比较年轻时的我的那不在乎。

没有了年轻的本钱,精力和身体状况大不如前,已经不能像以前那样的拼。

更重要的是,到了人生的另一个阶段,选择了重视身体和心理的健康,选择了不要为工作拼了命。

或许,是一种领悟。

和随之而来的那坚持的决心。


不要误会,我不是工作偷懒「吃蛇」、得过且过的那种人。

我仍旧是个责任感很重,要把东西做到我能力以内最好的那个人。

我有我的原则,和我的水准。

纯粹就是,不再工作优先,而是健康和生活优先。

不再为了工作妥协我身体和心理的健康、我生活的素质。

工作为了生活,不是生活为了工作。


所以,开工要选个吉日,祈求工作上会顺心顺意。

不要有小人、猪队友、难搞的经理、同事、客人什么的。

让我避开那些办公室政治、有私人目的阴谋、复杂的人际等等烦人累人的那些有的没的。

就让我安分守己做好我的工作,交出我能做的最好,这样就够了。

由衷诚心祈望啦…

开工大吉哦~!

Win!


Slept in and stayed in bed until noon, win!

Did my burpee exercise. Oh my goodness so tiring, could only manage ten sets in one go, had to break twice to complete my goal of thirty. My legs are jellyish for a while but win!

Stayed home and be potato the whole day, a relatively peaceful and quiet day, win!

Played many hours of computer game, win!

Expanding waistline


So I have been steadily getting fatter as I age, the metabolism slowing down, all that.

Losing the twice weekly badminton sessions since I changed department didn't help.

Gorging and indulging during Chinese New Year is only going to make it worse.

Oh well.

Already decided to start the daily burpee after Chinese New Year, and if that's not effective after a couple of months then I will have to get a pair of running shoes and restart the brisk walks.

And if by June I am still not seeing positive changes, then I will have to think of something more drastic.

That's the plan.

Shopping and I


Some people like shopping, love even.

They can shop for hours and hours.

And end the shopping spree not only full of spoils but also still full of energy.

Not me.

I just want to go in there, get the stuff I want, pay and get out.

As efficient and as hassle-free as possible.

Dragged out long hours shopping session is not my thing, I would get exhausted and my back would start to ache and lock up.

That makes me miserable and irritable.

Worse when there is a crowd, the antisocial side of me cringe and wither inside.

Really just not my thing, oh well.

生活点滴:家有底裤男


大瓜从小就喜欢在家里赤裸着身子,就只穿一条底裤。

经过邻居可以看得到的窗或就那样站在天台他也不以为然。

小时候还好啦,包着尿布的宝宝不也是这样,是吧?

但现在他可是比我还高的少年了嘞…

几天前情人老婆仔晚餐时叫他「底裤男」,还真贴切。

我想,应该没有什么人会突然来访的啦。

再说,有人来他应该会赶紧穿上些衣服的呱?

怎么都好,就是想要说:我家里有底裤男哦!

是类似那些「内有恶犬」标志的用意啦,请不要被吓到。

Hello cave


Wish you would leave me alone, depression.

Wishful thinking, I know.

You came knocking, uninvited, unwelcomed.

Yet I have no say in the matter, I can't even refuse entry.

So hello cave, here we go again...

Yes!


Today is the first working day in 2020 when I don't have to work overtime.

Actually it's since my business trip but whatever.

Fantastical!

(Yes the balls are also feeling fantastic =P)

Just wanted to record this.
