space technology

Jasper has informed me that he bought the "NASA" foam pillow, that's contoured and keeps its shape (like if you pressed your hand into it). One more thing is that it's "exactly" 7 weeks to Clarissa's birthday, but that's a guess.

Haha, Bush just said "nuculear". Geez. It's not nice to laugh at people, but I wouldn't laugh at him if he wasn't the president of the United States. Honest!

Anyway, was out with Jasper last Friday, and Orchard Road is all dolled up in Christmas clothes. I was wondering whether it makes economic sense for shops to actually spend money on decorations, whether that would draw more customers, or might it even be that shops that don't have decoration lose out.

So there was a crystal shop with "Merry Crystal" on the storefront window, and another "Merry Clinique", so you might have guessed "Merry Clarissa", well, perhaps even "Marry Clarissa". We were both somewhat tired and somewhat high on that lightheaded "not-quite-enough-sleep" feeling, as Jasper puts it, "losing inhibitions, gaining exhibitions".

According to him, there was a girl wearing the shortest skirt he'd ever seen in his favorite cafe in Orchard Road, which is not Cafe Revive in Marks and Spencers, but Sun Moulin Cafe, which has a view of Orchard Road (the cafe is on the 2nd floor). I didn't know that. Before that day, I would have bet that it was Cafe Revive.

Hmm... there's something in my notebook about when you're screwed you don't feel like screwing, but I forget why we even talked about this.
