Tapioca Chips

I woke up today feeling awesome about myself, and about my plans for the day. I have several to-dos which I listed the night before and very confident and determined to complete them before the Thursday sun sets into the nice cool night, setting the mood for a greatly anticipated relaxing weekend.

ALAS!! No wait. I meant, WAH LAU EH!! It was not meant to be. (Who the heck uses "Alas" nowadays anyway.) Customer service obligations would send me zipping across island highways from Woodlands to Hougang to Katong and back to Hougang. Add quirky weather of sunshiney drizzles, and heavy traffic at some stretches of the road, the driving left mental skidmarks in my already frustrated mind. Only some TLC like sniping someone's head off in a game of Counterstrike would help.

But, because I went to Woodlands, I drove past the Old Chang Kee factory which is now selling my favourite festive snack, tapioca chips. In original, tomato, sambal and of course curry flavour. Because I went to Katong, I saw several new restaurants and cafes which will be a perfect weekend outing for me and the wife.

Sometimes life throws a wrench into your plans. Other times, procrastination will do it. It is now 7pm and my list is only a quarter completed. That is because I am too busy eating the chips, and typing up this post.

I need an upsized dose of caffeine, to plough through the remainder of the list.
