after the love has gone

Dear Wife:

I’m writing you this letter to tell you that I’m leaving you forever. I’ve been a good man to you for seven years and I have nothing to show for it.

These past two weeks have been hell. Your boss called to tell me that you quit your job today and that was the last straw.

Last week, you came home and didn’t even notice that I had a new haircut, had cooked your favorite meal and even wore a brand new pair of silk boxers. You ate in two minutes, and went straight to sleep after watching all your soaps. You don’t tell me you love me anymore; you don’t want sex or anything that connects us as husband and wife.

Either you’re cheating on me or you don’t love me anymore; whatever the case, I’m gone.

Your EX-Husband

P.S. Don’t try to find me. Your SISTER and I are moving away to West Virginia together! Have a great life!

Dear Ex-Husband:

Nothing has made my day more than receiving your letter. It’s true that you and I have been married for seven years, although a good man is a far cry from what you’ve been.

I watch my soaps so much because they drown out your constant whining and griping. Too bad that doesn’t work.

I DID notice when you got a hair cut last week, but the first thing that came to my mind was ‘You look just like a girl!’ Since my mother raised me not to say anything if you can’t say something nice, I didn’t comment.

And when you cooked my favorite meal, you must have gotten me confused with MY SISTER, because I stopped eating pork seven years ago!

About those new silk boxers: I turned away from you because the $49.99 price tag was still on them, and I prayed that it was a coincidence that MY SISTER had just borrowed fifty dollars from me that morning.

After all of this, I still loved you and felt that we could work it out. So when I hit the lotto for ten million dollars, I quit my job and bought us two tickets to Jamaica. But when I got home you were gone. Everything happens for a reason, I guess.

I hope you have the fulfilling life you always wanted. My lawyer said that the letter you wrote ensures you won’t get a dime from me. So take care.

Signed,

Your Ex-Wife, Rich As Hell and Free!

P.S. I don’t know if I ever told you this, but my sister Carla was born Carl. I hope that’s not a problem.

route

Before when I was still residing in my mother's house, I ride a taxi every morning going to work. But then when I moved in to another location which is nearer to the FX Terminal of Ayala, I take FX but - Rustan's is the only UNLOADING AREA which is near to Makati Ave. I work at Arnaiz Ave. by the way, so from Rustan's, I walk that long going to Makati Ave. and ride a jeep going to Mantrade. Since I hate walking via morning rush, I decided to get off at Robinson's Summit and from there, ride another cab going to Arnaiz. I think its just the waste of money and time but I have no choice. I tried to ask some barker if there is a terminal going to Landmark but they say there's none.

Yesterday, I had the guts to ask the FX Driver from Landmark-Pasig route where is their terminal in Pasig. He told me that the terminal in Mc Donald's will pass through Makati Ave, Dela Rosa, Salcedo, and finally Benavidez (back of our bldg). Im so happy when i knew the information. So this morning I headed to McDo terminal and was surprised because the line is much shorter than that of in Rotonda. And I got off just in front of our building, no need to take another ride. Haay. Finally i discovered the perfect route.
