Fever day

I couldn’t sleep yesterday night…. Got up today morning with a fever… didn’t wanna stay at home; so decided to follow Ai Lin to run her errands… Brought Ai Lin to an organic vegetarian restaurant… the food was good; we had rojak; fried cream abalone; rice with vege and rice with sweet & sour abalone. Struggled to finish the food; I couldn’t finish; felt so zombie-fied. Then Ai Lin suggested to go and have a look at the Honda & Toyota showroom… test drove few cars; and had a long chat with the salesmen… got back home at about 4.30 p.m. Went with Uncle John & fly to Bkt China for a walk… now feeling feverish…. Later, Uncle John invited us to his house to makan the bacon that he’s gonna ‘cook’.

I am missing honey bunny so much. Today is the worst day of my life, I had to tell Honey bunny I have to go because I have so much work to do... and it is also when honey bunny is not sounding happy.

I realise that what makes me sad is that I am not with honey bunny each and every single day... I am writing this after almost every single equipment was prepared. This was excellent job on behalf of all the crew. I love them so much as well. But all I can think off is honey bunny and how she is not feeling well and how I need to speak with her. If not I cannot be happy. The conversations with her are what i look forward to the most. I am lost without her. Sometimes, i just don't know it. At the very point in time... it is SO APPARENT! I love you so much honey bunny. I do.. I really DO.

Sayang,

:) ... I hope you are feeling well and in good
shape... <:D>

I've been working so much since that day I called you... Sunday it was until start till 10pm.. had to go to bed because they stopped at the last minute (lucky for me) because I managed to get 3 hours of sleep before they woke me up again to start the operation...
We had to push an explosives device down to about 3000m... and when we finally came to fire it, after determining a couple of times it was at the right spot.. (it was off by 0.1m!!!) I fired the charge... and puff... we did not get what we expected .. which was a change in pressure... so I thought the charge had not gone off.. so I stayed at the spot for a 30 more minutes sending power just to satisfy myself... I
was so depressed. :(

But so finally gave the signal to pull out and... went through all the paperwork and then was ready to diarm the gun and fix something!!! And Guess what the
charge went off... unfortunately, it did not do what it was supposed to... nevertheless you should have
seen me... I was pumping my fist like Tiger Woods... after winning a major tournamnet and I was looking at everyone with delight!!!

And then, we did not get any sleep so that was from 1am monday morning till 7pm ... off on a boat.. to another rig,... I guess when it rains it pours... So
managed to convince the guy that I needed at least 4 hours.. he gave me 5... then up again at 3 am... back to work.. this time up to 3pm... and then showered..
and what they said... go to sleep asap!!! So had a little dinner and slept.. finally.. from 5:30 pm to
5:am....! thne woke up and was told that I had 10 minutes to get myself on a boat!!!

So I did and then came to the rig that I am on now, the norberg! This was a serious operation that may last a few days.. so we had a 3 hour discussion before any work was done. Then it was trying to get
some things done here and there... and finally when we started, we got it done.. but same thing here.. did not happen as it should but we were supposed to pull
some radiation sources (called fishing with the source being the fish!)... and we actually had it... Another pleasant surprise...

Sayang... I just read your messages and I'm sorry for not calling, I was probably just a little stressed and did not think straight, I even did not have anything to eat until 9pm on Sunday... had to tell the galley to save some food. It was the same the following day... just had enough time to have dinner and then rush to the boat. I'm SO SO Sorry for not calling... Thats the main thing!!! Lots of love.
