Had you come to me before July last year wanting me to talk about shower caps trivially, I would have. I could have. As trivial as shower caps could be. And as trivial as telling you that my favorite and trusted ones are those available at Watsons pharmacies. Thick, polka-dotted, and come in two’s.
And those Watsons shower caps were exactly the ones I got for Be’s colleague who had asked him to get in Malaysia (as she was on the Russian island where shower caps were nowhere to be found). Up until the end of July 2008, shower caps were not too personal to me. Sure! I drove to Watsons KLCC to get the colleague those precious shower caps.
But came August 2008, life taught me many lessons I could not have trivialized. Even shower caps taught me one:
-
That if one’s husband comes home telling the wife that a female colleague had asked him to get her (kirim) some shower caps, what may be going on between the husband and the colleague is nothing trivial.
Nothing is more personal than a shower cap but a thinking cap.

your patience,strength,capacity for forgiveness and faith are just beyond words.
Thank you Ida.
Sementara nak sabar, nak kuat, nak memaafkan dan nak percaya semua ni satu pengajaran… isssss menangis nya Tuhan je lah yang dapat pujuk.
Tapi nak give up… rasa macam senang sangat pulak karang. Rugi. Nak balas dendam, buang masa, buang tenaga je. Not worth it.
It’s not easy. But I’ve moved on.
sometimes people just wear their caps on their knee caps…haih. Lestit kan the shower caps to her Enida.
Wiz,
Nasib baik you suruh lestit kan je the shower caps. Ingat kot nak suruh decapitate kan je what she put in the shower caps tu last year. Ahaks.

and for recklessly jeopardizing a good thing, someone needs a dunce cap
Ida,
Oh how I wish I were not as forgiving as I have been, ya know. She never said thank you for the shower caps, nor did she say sorry for all the sorrow she caused. It must be hard being born with a heart as rotten as hers.
