i did something stupid last night. one of the hazards of staying up until the wee hours of the morning. you're not thinking straight, you're tired, you feel alone and somewhat nostalgic for helsinki* whilst listening to OMD, etc. i don't know what exactly i was thinking, but i decided to email her.

well i figured that since the US is mobilizing its troops to head towards the gulf, that maybe helsi's brother got activated (he's a marine). so i just wrote a quick note saying that i hope that he's okay, and if he was overseas, i hope that he'll get back safely and my thoughts and prayers are with him. i also asked about her mother (sweetest lady ever, well next to my mums) and the animals (2 dogs and 2 cats).

to those uninitiated to the drama that was helsi and i, you're probably thinking to yourself, well that was a very nice thing to do. on the other hand, for those of you who were lucky enough to have witnessed it all (to quote morrissey, "heaven knows i'm miserable now"), you are all probably shaking your collective heads, torn between worry and disappointment. or maybe you just feel plain ambivalence.

whatever the case maybe, that's not even the stupid part (or what i perceived to be the stupid part). i took the opportunity at this point to tell her that, and i quote, "i miss you and hope you're doing alright."

now that was pretty stupid. what was i hoping to obtain by writing something like that? i mean i do miss her, but she doesn't need to know that. there, that's where my stupidity got me. as mark would say, "that's asinine."

on a much better note, my yahoo account started working again. of course this was after 2 months of inactivity. but hey, it works and i got all my old emails back. woo-hoo!

YAHOO MAIL is the DEVIL!


it's a bit arid today. and hot. what the fuck is up with the weather? it's like 80 degrees here. ugh!
