This and that
A bit of a false alarm today. Before our lecture started, I rummaged my bag for my handphone -- as I always do -- to switch it to "Silent" mode. When I couldn't find it, I asked XL to ring my number.
XL: "Hello? Um, who is this? Oh... oh, what's that? You found the handphone in the ladies'? You're outside LT 4? Okay, thank you, we'll be there!"
(She hangs up.)
Me: "Argh! I left it on the ledge when I went to pee!"
XL: "Why would you put your handphone on the ledge?!"
Me: "Because I was afraid that if I left it in my jeans pocket, that when I sat down, it would drop out and get..."
XL (glaring at me): "LOST?!"

Mr Miyagi's post reminded me of my JC days. It's been a while since my last game of touch, and these days the scrapes on my knees are no longer from dried grass, but from blunt razors.
Makes me miss Gilbert.
