I must tell you something that happened to me last night. Its not often I laugh at myself, but this event is something I will remember until I loose my mind again.

After having a tedious time working and figuring what the hell I was doing at the office, I took the cab home to the suburbs where I live. It takes approximately an hour to reach “home” from Kuala Lumpur where I work.

I arrived home at about 11:30 in the evening. My parents were already sleeping upstairs in their air-conditioned nest. Having had a good lunch with Prince Charming, and Pooh Bear, my tummy wrestled for another meal. I couldn't resist the Nestle Cornetto. My mouth needed another exercise. Besides I was thinking of playing “Age of Empires” just before hitting the sack.

Having opened the ice-cream and blissfully enjoying it… I heard a weird strange noise like a whistling coming from outside the house. My bedroom cubicle is on the ground floor, and faces the road.

I decided to continue licking the ice-cream, pampering my tongue to the fullest exercise you can ever imagine. Forget the fat that I'm going to add in a couple of minutes around my tummy, hips and …

Suddenly I was awaken. Mummy had entered my room this morning, and screamed.

“What's that on your face?” she yelled, excitedly. Still in the half-sleep and half-wake stage, I dragged myself out of bed.

“Guess what Mummy?”
“Don't ask” she said
“I had a chocolate mask last night” I added, looking at myself in the mirror laughing hysterically like the Mad Hatter

I fell asleep whilst enjoying my Cornetto ice-cream.

I related this to the Tasmanian Devil in our office, and we burst out laughing.
