my family and other animals
Reflections at 4am
My brother the pig and the dog make a fine couple..you should see them walking together, they look like shrek and donkey..except my dog,flee, is much much smaller than donkey and my brother is much bigger than shrek. so you can imagine.
My mom has decided that all the years and love *ahem* ..yea..love she invested into bringing us up hasn't exactly reaped the most inspiring rewards, or any reward fr the matter - according to her lah..and now she's made flee her adopted son. Such that any term of endearment is reserved exclusively fr the dog. And when she does happen to address one of us with any affection at all, we immediately think she's actually talking to flee.
Granny grinch and the dog don't quite get along..wch is interesting coz flee doesnt get along with children and other dogs , and basically anything that moves/runs & granny grinch is the most stationary thing in my household. But then again they say dogs see what other humans cant...i beleive it.
My sister has fallen asleep with the huge bio book on her belly, yet again. 3rd time this week...she was stressing about some project or test not too long ago, and next thing i realise she's lying here like a lizard with a locked jaw..clutching that book i've come to detest..coz everytime she takes it out,i know she's gonna usurp my place infront of the pc. and of coz i've got to give it up without a fight..
me the unemployed graduate, aka v.i.p - dont have to spell out the whole tamil equivalent- who does not deserve any such *luxury, or, one wld think, to even exist... let alone use the pc and obviously chatting on MSN is out of the question
and she, the studious undergrad who has every right to every *necessity and should be given priority since she is THE responsible studying member of the family. Don;t get me wrong now, our family is normal...quite the average family i should think..we all live quite amicably together...I'm just an incurable insomniac by night (explains this blog post) and spend most of the day sleeping..which mkes me a rather nocturnal but innocuous creature...my brother (better known fondly of coz, as the pig) and my dog, which tends to think its a cat and acts like one too, my sister the lizard look-a-like, my mom, mother to flee above all, and then the pig,lizard and me, in that order i'm inclined to believe...and granny grinch, an exotic and rare species..a far relation of the cat family i think; they have 9 lives, and well granny grinch seems to have been around for so long , it feels like she's gone beyond 9 lives in her one lifetime.. way too long if u ask me..
i could go on, but i shall end here, lest authorities start to think i belong to a zoo. This has been my reflection for the week..quite a revelation. I think im ready for bed now..the household should be starting to stir very soon...
