Back to work
Thursday, 20 February 2020 19:15We were eager to get the puppies to the dog park because we like to let the dogs run around off leash. And since it's opened today again that's where we went to in the morning. However, new weird signage is weird. The funny thing is, the Chinese isn't exactly the same as the English. The Chinese says "Please do not just bring your dog to the grass to poop." erm..... so if I let the dogs run around free for a bit then they can poop??? The English doesn't make sense, because it's a dog park (and there's a poop bin inside), but the Chinese really confuses me. Usually the Chinese would be the correct language used, but I doubt this time the Chinese is accurate. I wonder............ (Notice there is no Portuguese. Oh yeah Portuguese is one of the 2 official languages here, BUT ALMOST NO ONE SPEAKS IT!)
First day after this long work from home stretch back at work. Sweet sweet office. I love the connectivity of.... a printer a scanner the pantry (although all I get from there is water)...
Also, I have a huge-ass computer screen at work. Definitely beats this 13" MacBook Air I have right now.
I wanted to order those salad or healthy take out again, but the colleagues were going to do a group order and I thought... I should get together with my colleagues more. They ordered from a Thai place, so my lunch today was this very oily, very fat, but oh so gloriously good combination of barbequed Pork Neck Rice and Hainan Chicken Rice. Half and half. The pork neck was really good. The chicken, hm... I've had better Chicken, but the coconut rice from the chicken was glorious as well. And with some morning glory. Yummy.
Opened a box of probably expired Earl Grey Tea (still tasted good, so okay hahaha) to wash down the oily food. Then the boss again had some weird requests for me to do an international call to over there. Got it done, pronto yay. Decided to leave work a little earlier to pick up some more Taobao order. My Mom asked me to order this shoe wrap thing and it had arrived (that was quick, considering!) and went to pick it up and set up at home. Cut myself when I was trying that blade thing, but it's just a flesh wound. Of course, the neighbour being busybody just had to see what that was all about. Started criticizing how that isn't useful and all that. I'm like, yeah, whatever.
Essentially it's a device with a roll of plastic sheet like food wrap (some places call it saran wrap?), before you step into the apartment you just step into the soft "platform" (it's a foam, so your foot sinks in) then you just drag your foot up and back until the front of your shoe goes to the blades, and you step down to push the blades up and cut the plastic wrap.
This way we don't have to take off the shoes everytime we go into the apartment, and instead we can take off our shoes at our own time and pace and at a chair. And since we don't have to leave the shoes outside the door, the elevator hallway looks more clean and tidy, unlike our neighbours who have an entire shoe cupboard outside in the elevator hall (technically not allowed) and still leave their shoes lying around the hallway.
I digress.
Anyway, today feels like such a fulfilling day, I'm properly satisfied!
Here's a dog butt for your viewing pleasure LOL
And here is the news about casinos opening again at midnight. That’s where I worked!
