Cowboy Caleb the liberal arts, grown-up stuff & random mischief

Obviously, Help Required

Since my laptop is broken, I took the chance to quickly run back to Singapore. Although I was originally scheduled to return, I was going to postpone it but without a computer, I simply wouldn’t be productive.

The truth is that my stress levels have gone through the roof since I got new responsibilities forced upon my shoulders at work. The excuse to fly back and not return to work until I got a new laptop was simply too good a chance.

My wife has noticed also. Because the first night I was back, I started walking in my sleep. Apparently I was mumbling instructions to invisible entities in the room, which of course scared the wits out of her.

At work, everybody thinks I’m extremely clever and capable. The truth is that I have absolutely no idea what the hell I am doing. And I am really scared I am going to make a decision that explodes in my face. Maybe not today, but soon. I am going to screw up so bad that it will ruin everything.

So this weekend, I spent most of my time shopping around while answering questions sent to my BlackBerry from the office (yes, we run 24×7). I bought a full-leather 3+2+1 sofa set, a new round coffee table and a double-coil, latex foam mattress. Then I went and bought a cordless phone. Then my soul still felt empty, so I went and got a pair of Dockers pants. But the soul still felt like the colour purple or something, so I drove around aimlessly for awhile.

In the end, I ended up talking to my blog.

u nid a rest, a true rest. fly off somewhere wif yr wife, just the 2 of you and do nothing but just sex, sex and just sex.

you need a holiday

It seems like you are always talking to invisible people / animals.

How’s the monkeh doing?

Cowboy dude, damm man, it sure sounds hard. I’m nowhere you are right now(skills level I refer) but i can empathize with you to certain degrees.

About that sleep-walking, you might really want to consult a doctor before it worsens. Trust me, it really is scary, to see sth like that, in the middle of the night. Take care man.

Your life is excited and full of challenge. Fear can’t evade challenge …. Somehow, I find you are an enthusiatic employee. Take care.

Sex. Have lots of sex before the stress makes you impotent. And then you will start responding to the Viagra spam emails. Thereby making spammers spam more. And then the rest of us will kill you. So this involves everyone, we are in it together. Have more sex.

cb… these are tell-tale signs from the upper powers telling you that it’s time you took a short break from work - for goodness sake.

you can always make more money, but you can’t make more “health” - whether physically, mentally or emotionally.

take care man!

Hey dude, hope u don spell out ‘other’ bitch name while you had sex.

u need to have sex with 6 hookers at the same time then shot whiskeys from their navels.then lay on ur bed staring at the ceiling for 2hrs. just bcoz u can.

since u canot satisfy so many women at the same time, i think u shld just ask for a demotion.
