Itchy Hands

A conversation with a new friend over lunch brought out my craving for the day.

“You know how much I wanted to check out IMAX in Times Square. So, yesterday I went to buy a ticket at 5:30pm for the 8:30pm show. Aiyo, then I had to walk aimlessly for 3 hours. Worse still… When I went back to the IMAX entrance when it’s show time, the ticket counter announced that the show was cancelled,” my friend relating her disappointment to me.

“Times Square? Er… Since you have been wandering in that building for 3 hours, do you know if there is any bowling centre?” I asked oblivious to her disappointed tone.


After reading a fellow blogger sharing about her bowling outing, I can’t help craving for bowling myself. Can I use the word craving for something that does not involve food?

Right now… I don’t know and don’t care because I kept having vision of myself rolling the bowling ball down the lane since reading that post 2 days ago. It felt like those pregnant women craving for certain food. It’s a pretty strong feeling of urgency to just be at a bowling alley and rolling that ball. Never mind if it goes down the drain. Accomplishing the act itself is satisfying enough.

Do I sound like someone with an unbalance mind (hormone)? Hey, who knows? I might be writing this post from my humble abode in Tanjung Rambutan (a home for mentally challenged patients).

Ps: Actually, I have another post to write in this blog but my absent mindedness strikes again. I forgot what I wanted to write about. =P
