brownout

God still loves me (of course :D ).
i have a recurring migraine headache for weeks now, and almost every morning i take an advil just to manage it. my current project has been draining me mentally and physically. i wish i could take a time off but on top of this project, im still doing prod support and other admin work. so i need to do major overtime just to keep up. and just when im about to have another ranting outburst again (hehe), the lights went dead. since my pc is on ups, i just continued working, not minding the chaos brought by the brownout. minutes later, ops people asked us to shutdown our pcs because the ups is running low. i didnt want to, but they sounded serious, so i complied. i was hoping that the power could be restored asap because i have tons of things to do. then an announcement... "uwi na kayo" (well, it was almost 5pm anyway). while my officemates celebrated, i felt frustrated. i need to work.

i had no choice. they werent sure when the power will be restored. looks like im really going home early today. wow i can still see the sun. hehe. still cant believe im going home that early.

strolling along delarosa walkway on a sunset backdrop was a little surreal. :P. i took the mrt, decided to do a roundtrip southbound to taft so i could sit comfy-ly. it was too comfy,, i snoozed up to north ave. felt a lot better already. :) i got home 730ish. my mom didnt expect me to be at home that early. she thought my brother was the one who opened the gate. i think she said "aga mo a, ikaw ba talaga yan?" 3 times. i cant believe it either. hehe. "ano nangyari?" hehe. of course something should have happened.

so to take advantage of this very unusual / rare event, i decided give myself a foot spa and a full body pampering to help me unwind. never felt this clean and relaxed in months. :) i feel i can face my dementors again.. with a geniune smile. and probably, i wont take any advils tomorrow.

i still think that God is really looking after me, even if I feel far from Him recently. i mean how else could i go home that early? how else could i leave work and do a foot spa? :P
