Dad had an glaucoma operation on his left eye last Thursday and got out of the hospital yesterday. Mom and my sister went to see him twice a day during the time of his hospitalization to bring him the meals. So far he is happy with what has been achieved through the operation and the [...]

I have been lazy over this long weekend. Saturday was quiet, Sunday was quieter and Monday, a weired public holiday for ACT people namely ACT Union Picnic Day nearly knocked me out, not by exhaustion but by boredom. Now I am thinking what if I have a dog! A dog needs me to look after, [...]

Guess what I have got from 5 minutes’ standing in the courtyard in the evening time? I got at least 20 pimples on my two naked feet. It happend after the sunset time. I could not see my enemies but they can easily feel me. I guess I was the best meal for their day [...]

Haven’t got on the stationary bicycle for three days. My exercise recoding sheet on the wall looks so clean, which makes me feel guilty. I was supposed to do at least 10km everyday, but I was always occupied by this or that kind of work that seems somehow more important than workout. Alternatively, I can [...]

下了两天的雨终于停了,从没见过堪培拉有这么多水过,我和老公不约而同地彼此问着:“从哪儿来的呀?”还没真的起床,人已经被自己发出的呼啸弄醒了——我可怜的鼻子几乎每天都会给我带来无尽的“不可控”和“不可知”。谁见了我都问我是不是感冒,可问题是我似乎天天都在感冒,因为鼻子一年到头呼啸不止——遇到冷空气、在家里使用吸尘器、切点干辣椒、看见西红柿,甚至一动不动地只是躺在暖和的被子里……天知道!找不出一点可以成文的规律。随时随地、不管穿多少衣服、不管吃多少药物、不管是说正经事还是开玩笑、不管需要严肃安静还是轻松随意,我的鼻子一概不听指挥,想打喷嚏就打喷嚏、想流鼻涕就流鼻涕。老公说我每天晚上“扯风箱”,殊不知我怕影响他,半年前就改为用嘴呼吸了。虽然,偶尔它也给我一两个平静、不泛涟漪的日日夜夜,但总的来说,我现在的这只鼻子除了添堵之外,只是长在脸上的一个说明我不是面部畸形的物件儿。唯有在我思想极度紧张、身体极度忙碌的情况下,我似乎才能够逃脱和幸免。 我想我老了,年轻时不穿衣服、喜欢淋雨、病没好透就下床、以及咳嗽感冒不吃药的坏习惯正在让我付出代价,不过这种事情是说不清楚谁是因、谁是果的。我最近两年给自己找了个“慢性过敏性鼻炎”的托辞,因为家姐也是数年前有过类似症状的(现在据说她的病灶转移了,已经变成胃部不适了),另外在我自己身上也有过一段轰轰烈烈的过敏史。但是老公很憎恶我的这个诊断,他常常在我一串喷嚏之后厉声大喝“你现在又对什么过敏了,是吧?”天哪!这可是我的鼻子,在我还没抛弃它之前,不容受到他人置疑。可是,我又该怎么办呢?我拼命给它找台阶,我的鼻子却不听我的。 我经常忍不住想:在自己“香销玉陨”之前,怎么还得有个几十年,难道就这样让一个不听话的鼻子瞎折腾吗!?说真的,和一只不受控的鼻子纠缠在了一起,有多苦,只有自己才知道~
