Giving up on riches…

Only a few days till May, when we’ll move to the small house. Having trouble deciding what computer to bring along, what watch to wear? Think I will take the used ThinkPad and both iPads, that’s all. Will wear my G-Shock 2200 on elastic NATO mostly as it looks interesting with its ana-digi dial, is rugged, comfy, and doesn’t scream luxury.

I’ve given up buying more PCs or watches, anything expensive. You could say I’ve given up on riches. Maybe I will never walk through the doors of a luxury boutique, most probably I will never have a woman. I did get Mom a new keychain from Daiso. She likes those bell bunny / kitty things. Every few years, the paint comes off the brass, scratched against the keys. More later…

Got my face, arms and legs washed after frying reduced tomatoes and onion for lunch. We also had raw avocado with Mexican spice, all on toasted wholewheat. Some people downloaded my eBook, mss2, from FreeLunch.my. About 10. A good start. Meanwhile evil Liew witches and strange future-sensing family maraud the west and Christians in general.

2 days to transfer this iPad 10 to Mom. Haven’t shaved my head down yet. Must be punctual before the hairs grow out too much to catch the buzzer. Need to test all my regular sites with the iPad 5 before erasing this machine. Now we’re heading over to the new place, our shoebox house, to do some cleaning. The ceiling was repainted 2 days ago as it was flaking. I want to visit my room and take away the Aspire laptop. More later…

Back from the shoebox. Wrote 2 guitar songs while there. Will be making luncheon meat fried rice for dinner tonight as Mom is tired. Started well on my short story, 1997. It’s going to run longer than average, I think, the way the plot and characters are.

While writing 1997, I came to know where exactly Patagonia is, as in my story, a port in Antarctica called New Patagonia is the scene of a thrilling religious crime. 1997 refers to past events that motivated the crime / main plot. Is this a spoiler… Anyway, it also gave me the chance to do major cross interactions between 4 very different characters which forms much of the word count. And BTW the fried rice was good.

We may have lost 10kRM or a portion of it to clever crooks. At least it was only a quarter lost from my immediate family. Not too bad. Mom talked to a lawyer and is feeling better about it. There may be traps laid for people who abuse telepathy. Now the WEF is in session in Arabia and that could be a precursor to the entrance of the Beast.

My Acer netbook is home safely. It has a predictable screen angle blanking issue and runs Bodhi Linux. I may give it away one day unless we find a use for it which is doubtful. Somehow HaikuOS won’t boot with its unusual BIOS.

The Liew witchy forces were given minor gut problems. They are much easier to control and spread out less easily.
