Chismoso

tantan's car is still in the garage. oh wait, i have been away from here long, i have to backtrack a little bit....

last saturday, we were supposed to go to chessington, then spend the night at our friends' house. unfortunately, tantan's car broke down on the motorway and had to be brought to the garage (we used his car bec we have a lot of stuff with us and we're supposed to pick up a friend on the way). there's a problem with the fuel pump, it has to be replaced. it will take up to 3 days (and ₤270!) before it gets fixed bec the part has to be ordered pa.
Sayang ang glorious sunshine!
despite our plans being cancelled, cayden was still happy bec he got to see a real life tow mater (disney cars) in action. he also got to ride in it =D
tantan worked from home yesterday. i needed my car for my appointment at the salon for a facial (yes, facial is more important than him going to work lol). tuesday is zumba day so borrowing my car is a no-no. but he needed to be at the office today so i drove him to work. well, he drove going there, i drove the car home.

anyways, heading to tantan's office, it was traffic. at one point, the cars weren't moving (on our side of the road while the other side is so open). i told tantan frustratingly that i wouldnt make it in time for the zumba class - i still have to go home, pick up my mom and the kids. tantan then said, there's probably an accident on the opposite side of the road. i got confused. i said, no if there's an accident, it's probably on our side bec we're barely moving. he didnt argue. he we patiently drove on.
look at our speedo: 0. not moving at all on our side
lo and behold, the accident was indeed on the other side (the one going back home). drivers on our side were just making USI, slowing down to see what's going on, building the traffic up! kainez d b?! chismoso much? there's really no reason for our side to be traffic.
big accident involving 6 cars. fire trucks, ambulance and police all responded
d ba super luwag on our side after we passed the accident site. really no reason to be traffic AT ALL! but look at the parking lot on the other side! that's where i have to pass going home
tantan still managed to be at work on time. but i had to wait it out as i didnt want to be stuck in a gridlock! i'd rather be in a real parking lot! unfortunately, tantan works in an industrial estate. nowhere nice to hang out in. i waited an hour before they cleared the motorway.

on a lighter note, while waiting for the traffic to ease out, tantan's boss came and parked beside my car. at that time i didnt know he's tantan's boss. i even said to myself, ang kaskasero naman nito because he was parking pero ang lakas maka-accelerate! he saw me and probably deduced that im tantan's wife bec he's seen tantan drive my car before. this is part of our chat:
neil is the boss. tama naman sya e! haha

sabi ko, partida, hindi pa ko naliligo! LOL
