Tick tock.....

I woke up early on Sunday morning as I was to visit a friend at Sunway hospital. My car was used by my parents so someone had offered a lift and the agreed time was 10 a..m. I hurried to finish some chores, shower, feed my dog, have breakfast & was ready by 9:50 a.m. I waited. And waited. And waited some more. At 10:40 a.m. she finally sms-ed saying that she`d be a lil` late. Eh ? From experience, most of my appointments with women ( 9/10 ) always end up with lotsa waiting about for me. 10 a.m. might just as well mean noon. A friend who used to be always on time has to swallow his emotions nowadays as his wife needs to brush her hair 100 times before leaving the house. He is always late now. I am horrendously punctual & abhor mixing around with folks who have no respect for other people`s time. As a result of her being 1 hour late un-announced, I was already sweating & sleepy when she arrived. The sun was blazing by then. If I had known that she`ll arrive so late, I would have just taken the cab or had a nice sleep. I just sighed to myself. People won`t change. We`ll just have to mix less with them....
