Silliness

Nagi's been having a wave of silliness lately.

He bought a pack of winter hats for himself last week, and I kept telling him that's a little bit too small for him. He said no this is how it's supposed to be. Hats aren't supposed to cover your ears. Right. Fine.

Then when we went to Tesco together, I noticed that the exact same pack he bought was actually from the boys section. Yep. My husband obviously still think he's a little boy. I directed him to the appropriate section where mens' hats are. He said "Ah, maybe that's why the hats didn't cover my ears!"

Yes, dear husband.

Yesterday, he came online complaining about his back pain which he had been suffering since he arrived in Korea. He arrived on Sunday and had said nothing about back pain. He then said "I've been taking small amount of paracetamol since I only brought a few with me and I hope that'll last through tomorrow since I would have nooooo clue how to say paracetamol in Korean."

Worrisome. Indeed.

I told him yeah that would be difficult if he has to go to local pharmacy to get something. The pack might be all written in Korean and stuff. I'm a fan of Korean drama but saying paracetamol is beyond my knowledge of Korean language. I could only say hi, goodbye, mister, miss, etc. Oh I can say I love you in Korean very well!

But I asked him, "Have you tried asking the hotel staff to get some for you?" He stayed in a five-star hotel so the staff should be able to converse somewhat fluently in English, and that should have been the first thing he should have done, right?

"No, wow that's a great idea! The hotel people can speak English, yes!"

Grrr... He just went through a few days of back pain because he's been too stingy in using paracetamol, which could have easily been avoided!

Whoever said men have better logic than women must be.. men. And, I shouldn't be suprised when Agastya has his wave of silliness, and just blame half the genes he's got.

The kids and I miss him when he's away. It's Friday and I'm on my last strain to keep up with the kids' energy level. Does energy come in bottle? I wish mine came with rechargable plug.

Crazy woman!! How do I get Paracetamol in Korea? Imagine me asking the receptionist "err.. where can i get paracetamol?".

In the rare event she understands I am asking for "medication", how confident can I be that she has given me paracetemol rather than diarrhea tablets or even worse VIAGARA !!
