hello fellow readers of Pat Sanitarium, I am sel, your host for the day. u may remember me from such shows as, 'myhappycorner' and 'life-sucks-woe-is-me'

(Pat feeling lazy today, so i get to be guest poster)

i will pretend i am Pat, and write from his POV.

10 am, Pat's house
*yawn* *stretch* *scratch butt*

oh, me so lazy today. what shall i do? la la la, i think i will play some annoying online games, and be a nuisance till my mum tells me to get out of the house.

(sel: actually, i dunno what he did earlier, so i just made that up, i DO know that he missed an appointment with his shrink cause he forgot. fish brained)

6pm, Sel's house

Pat goes, 'i bring thee food and cigarettes o great Hermitress!', then sel goes 'yargh glah glah glah'.

(sel: actually, i sent Pat out to buy food and groceries, what a nice boy. thankies again)

Pat clutching sel's shopping list in Giant supermarket, looking lost and confused. 'help, help me, i cannot find the Hamster Food, sel will kill me if i don't get hamster food,..oh,..wowee,..lookie that, Pringles! its not on the list,..but,..ahh what the hell'

(sel: Pat returned with McD's and groceris, well done Pat, well done.)

this is getting confusing, i'll just write as myself. pretending to be Pat, even for 10 minutes is very very tiring.

anyways, we just hung around my apartment, and Pat met one of the hairy housemates (not the hamster) and played with Beatrice, Bradford, the little stegasaurus from BK, the little sheep from McD's, the little beanie tiger from ESSO, and the little cat from RUSS (assorted soft toys). i think he really liked it too, was entertaining himself for hours.

we tried watching some tv, but oh man, Malaysian tv sucks. so instead we had a few million sticks of cigarettes, and talked a bit, reminiscing about the silly things we did when we were younger, and how much he misses paul, his brother. awwwww

then, watched Shrek 2 (my tenth time, Pat's first), which was,..urm,..still quite funny for me actually, and i am sure Pat really enjoyed it, shadows of people walking by and all (can anyone say, pirated copy! hello!!??). i cut and buffed my nails after the Fairy Godmother singing bit, and Pat got fascinated with the whole nail buffing thing too...

then, after another ciggie, Pat went home, with some of my MP3s and my guitar. why my guitar? cause he plans to start a band remember? why my MP3s? cause i have awesome taste in music.

and thats today's episode of Pat's Little Adventures!

ps: thanks for the book, the food, the running around being errand boy, and oh, the little box of mints you left behind. bonne nuit.

UPDATE

Thanks for writing on my behalf tonight Selina, but i just HAD to add this to my blog as well - check out what i got in my gmail!



Dear Patrick,

Do you remember back to your Christchurch school days in Bombay, India. Do you remember a friend in school called Farhad Billimoria. I dont know if you recollect the name at all .... think back to good old Christchurch. Also maybe the attached photo will jog your memory.(In the picture, thats Juzer Shakir, me, and you).

What a small world this is... because i too am in Melbourne, Australia... and have been for the last 15 years or so. However i am moving to Canberra in a week.

What a great thing Google is eh? I was thinking back to Christchurch days and just punched your name into Google.

Do let me know how you are doing? Would love to catch up on our lives.

(Btw: i hope this is the right patrick pincon)

Cheers
Farhad

PS: Awww... look, i was even playing with guns at that age... ;)
