It has been a tradition that we talk to our kids, Alyssa and Allen before they doze themselves to sleep at night. We can usually stay up to 2 hours, even 3 talking about what happened for the day, telling stories, singing, etc.
Allen suddenly wants me to talk about Mecro Joan. But I don't who it is or what? I tried to listen closely. Mecro Joan. I heard it right. I know her big sister can understand him better than I do. I know there are instances that I need Alyssa to translate in our 'language' what Allen is signing or speaking. FYI, Allen intended not to pronounce some words properly and the two of them laugh like crazy.
"Michael Jackson!", Alyssa kiddingly explained! Oh my, I didn't know MJ had a nickname like that. Wow! These kids are just crazy about Michael Jackson. They sing and dance together with MJ's Bucharest Concert DVD. These little kids are MJ's big fans forever. They played the DVD atleast 2 times a day putting Jesus Christ Superstar second in the list which have been taking the top list for months.
Dear Electricity
It is so funny how I was able to write this letter. There are really things I can do when there is nothing more to do. I wrote this in a scratch paper at 3am one brownout night.
Dear Electricity,
I could not believe it when I heard from Veco that you are leaving for a 6-hour vacation. How could you? I did not use much of your energy. You know I was careful not to exhaust you. You know it is so hard without you. You made me do the things I can’t do without you. You still decided to leave in such a short notice. What more can I do but bare with your absence.
I was thinking of you the whole time you were not here. You’re promise, “staying awake when you are asleep!” is now a doubt in my heart. Are you really sincere? What happens now is I am the one staying awake to fan my kids with lovely Abaniko…thanks for being there.
It’s been three hours since you left. And it felt like forever. But thanks to Mama (Nature), she still knows best. She is kind enough to pour rain and give a cool breeze.
Oh gosh, brownout, you know in your heart I don’t like you. You know he (brownout) is such a lazy loser! He can’t spin the electric fan nor cook my food in the microwave now that I’m starving. Now what? My time is wasted because of him! Not an entertainment..he can’t make me laugh..my life is dull with him.
In fairness to brownout, he did unleash the creativity in me. You see, Electricity, I would not have written you a letter all my life if you’d not left. At least Brownout lets my imagination unfold. And I think I’m crazy writing you this letter. You see, Electricity, how your absence makes me crazy. Now, you have to come soon. I’ll expect you at 6am as you promised. I need to tell my friends what you did.
Electricity, please don't leave again. Or if ever you will, please let me know so ahead of time, so I can prepare myself when you are away. You know I have been so dependent of you.
Sincerely,
Me, myself and I
