yesterday, i’m waiting all day in the only pair of shorts i have… all my dirty laundry being held by ‘labander hub’ who doesn’t pick up the phone all day yesterday. after many txt messages, i quit on leaving the house with these filthy shorts.

today, saturday, i send an SMS over to ‘labander hub’ at about 0900hrs.. they apologize for not bringing the laundry due to the rain storm. OK – no problem. They also say delivery man is coming within the hour – OK great, I can finally leave the house and take care of things! waiting all afternoon, many SMS messages sent, no reply..

this is damn hard work. this must be pakistan or something - i did not take this picture - but it makes the philippines look more developed than the USSA

1500hrs rolls around. I really want to get to Recto. I really really want to leave my house. I really really want to get away from the Internet! Finally, I call and say, “mare saan laundry ko? gusto ko sa laundry na?, she says” mamayana sir, later sir, is this american eric?”, I say, “OPO! yes! kelan nmn po? (when is it coming), can i come get it now?”, she replied, “YES sir come get it now.”

So then, I get ready to take a shower, and shazam! here’s Alain the laundry guy!

Good thing I didn’t go down there.

Oy WordPress, thank you for letting me rant! The walls do not talk back and neither do you!
