Work Suspended on July 31?

I woke up to a rainy Monday early this morning.  I immediately decided not to report to office and thus, I thereafter notified my officemates, and before I realized it, I was already literally sound asleep.

Few hours after, the rain stopped.  I then wondered if I just made the wrong decision.  But then, it was too late to change my mind, dress myself, and go to work.  It was already 2pm!

At around 230pm, an officemate texted that work had just been declared suspended.  True enough, my google search confirmed the text message.  I was happy, alright.  But my happiness was short-lived..

I was bugged by the question, why only at 230pm?  The government should have declared the suspension of work at the beginning of the day when everybody else is still safely tucked at home.  What if something bad had happened this morning, say, flood?  And since the government was not prompt enough to declare suspension of work, consequently, many workers would have been stranded on the streets!

Oh my!  I shudder at the thought everytime I remember what had happened to me on the day typhoon Ondoy struck Metro Manila.  It was a nightmare!  I walked for maybe a 5-km stretch of C5 Road.  And it was raining cats and dogs.  And I bravely (but stupidly) crossed floodwaters just to reach home.  And I promised never to do it again..

That explains why I would rather prefer to be cuddled in bed than be marked "full service" in the attendance report.  My question now is, what about tomorrow? :)

What went wrong?

I wish I knew the answer..

Recent news have shocked hollywood ... First, it was Tom and Katie, now it's Robert and Kristen and Rupert Sanders.  I am neither a fan of the Twilight Saga nor of the Snow White and the Huntsman.  But the scandal that rocked these popular stars was more than enough for me to rouse from my hibernation.  Besides, hubby is a big fan of Kristen because of her beautiful nose.  And I'm jealous!  As much as I hate her for that fact, I guess I just have to write my point of view.. in her defense.

I feel sorry for Robert.  He must be extremely devastated.  Obviously, he is a victim.  Being betrayed is excruciatingly painful.  Take it from me.  Been there.  But sometimes, things happen for a reason.  Blessings in disguise, so they say.  And I agree.

Rupert Sanders, being a married man at that, and who is expected to be already mature at his age, is the person to blame in this whole brouhaha.  He has a gorgeous wife, Liberty Ross, a British vogue model, and they have two beautiful children.  How could he do such foolishness to his family?!  And he took advantage of the vulnerability of a 22-year old lass.  Tsk!  Tsk!

A law against philandering husbands should be proposed and strictly implemented.  How's that?
