Honey, did u shrink my trousers?
.the title has been edited from something snapped! to Honey, did you shrink my trousers!, following a creative suggestion in my comment box from RAD.I came out of the bathroom this morning humming my favourite tune ..."wajah kesayangan hamba". As always, LiL has laid out my trousers, shirt, boxer and vest on the bed. I looked into the mirror - naked. I found myself looking at a face which is good looking enough for me to smile to myself. I tried to see a reflection of the top of my head - checking on what the Palestinian hairdresser claimed to be thinning away. Ah, I cant see anything wrong - my hair is as good as it has always been except for strays of silver which added to my character to a good measure.Shifted my focus to my belly - inhaled hard and held my breath - ah, not bad - no visible spare tyre ....I could only see a macho man ....almost a perfect V.
I have moved on to humming Bee Gees "How deep is your love" when I was putting on my cloth.-100% cotton vest on - checked!- Nike boxer on - checked!- White Long sleeve 100% cotton Ralph Laurent shirt- neatly pressed- on. Checked!- My favourite tailored blue Italian wool trousers on - *inhaled hard to hook the button on*Not checked!*In-haled even harder - red faced, and difficult to breath*Checked!*Smile with satisfaction - did it at last!*Snapped!*Darnnn!*"Sayangggggggggggggggggg! please come up........" sounded desperate and annoyed."Yes abanggg, naper?"Lil appeared with a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice in each hand.
"Look, my trousers hook came off! Did you wash it? You know right it must be dry cleaned! It has shrunk ka?"*LiL gelak guling guling......and she had to put down the glasses to stop them from spilling the orange juice*"Maybe abang yang dah expand kut...." came her killer blow.I stopped humming Bee Gees and went into a rap song....with a string of un-printable words - explaining, denying, justifying......!How could I not, only yesterday the Palestinian at the hairdresser told me about the thinning top - and this morning LiL said I have expanded!I still think there is nothing wrong with my hair and that my trousers have shrunk, at least by two inches!

Wahahaha expanding sideways such a norm as well. Again... the successful people that I see mostly never experienced seeing their expensive shoes when standing up straight on their backs.

If Lil was responsible for shrinking your trousers, why not ask her to shrink you?! The same method she has shrunk the trousers. Tak payah treadmill ;)
