Happy Anniversary, Darling!

The gifts giving went spectacularly well. Dear, did not even suspect a thing until he received his third and final gift yesterday. Re-reading my post from Friday, the clues were in the plain sight. The gifts were in plain sight as well !

So anyways, we had a quiet day in and just snuggled up close. Enjoying each other's company on a day where we got together.

Dear, may we be blessed with many more years together. Thank you for your time, patience and presence. Your kindness and generosity to me are valuable.

You are valuable and irreplaceable.

I *heart* you, many times over !

And The Countdown Begins..

So it started from yesterday. Dear had unfortunately lost a bet and so he had to reveal what he planned to give me for our anniversary gift as the forfeit. Flowers, he said. Recruiting Wawa to suss out the kind of flowers I love was unsuccessful. So the next tactic deployed was just direct questioning and answering.

Of that the answer is in him. From the sun as he was named. So sunflowers were the beauty that captured my heart and eyes. And sunflowers were delivered last night.

Sneaky man.. And I'm glad it was not delivered to work. Enough showboating as it is. Lovely fresh flowers accompanied by Percy the Penguin. My posse of stuffed creatures is increasing!

Thank you, my Darling. Thank you for the flowers, the toy and the lovely message.

Thank you for the surprise! :-D

Brain Dead !!!

Ahhh ....

I cannot think right now. I am counting down the minutes until knock off time. I am not so coherent now because I think I can leave the office.

Packing up my stuff.
Packing up my stuff to leave the office for the day.
Packing up my stuff to leave the office for the day and catch Rango.

Woo-Hoo !!!

Movie night !!!

Woo-Hoo !!!

Crutch

Sometimes I feel so omnipotent that what I asked and wished had come true. I feel like I have all the powers in the world to change the course and outcome of things. An immense rush of power trip. The ego boosting and heart pumping stuff.

Then the wishes are failed. Nothing goes the way I expected it to be. I am reminded of how insignificant my hopes and wishes are. How unimportant I am in the grand scheme of things. How little impact I make in the bigger picture.

At times like this, I am thankful for the network of support I get. From my Dear, especially. He had to go through so much hell from me at times. How he had to battle my insecurities and my temper tantrums. How he managed to be the calm and steady presence in my life. The anchor when I feel myself drifting away from human contact.

I love him. I absolutely do.

You asked and here I am saying, I do.

The Devils came undone

Was it fair play we were looking for all along ? Or did we think we can get through with our status and our great stature of the game? Did we think we can get by with a bit of our loud, noisy Gaffer at the helm all the times ? Maybe we had hoped for a bit of luck. A bit of divine (or not so divine) intervention all this while. We were crap at the game. We didn't exhibit enough hunger to win at all costs. We were cry babies (Waah ! Look, Ref at what he did to my shin !! Waah !!!). We let in silly, silly, gifted goals to this fella with such a weird name (Cute, Quite, Kot, Whatever..). Not just once or twice but freaking three times.

Did we deserve the loss ?

Yes. A big, fat resounding YES !!!

We played like school boys in the back field. We didn't want to win. We didn't go out on all fronts to attack. We were hoping for a stutter by our closest rivals and the Gunners didn't fire. At all. We should have taken the "gift" bestowed by the old Boy and thanked him with a proper whacking of the fake Reds. The Fools as we call them in my circle of Man Unites.

Did we do that ? Did the greatest English Team of the 90's and the first decade of 2000's do that ? Nope. They did not. They played like they were the bottom team. No chance of staying at the top of the table. No chance of winning the title yet again. No chance to go back to the Bird mascoted team and crow with the mightest roar.

Injuries upon injuries were the cause of the seams unravelling. But what about the depth of the squad ? What about the players who would kill to be wearing that famous red shirt? And the players who were given the chance just throw it away. Killed and crushed the dreams of millions of support around the world. What about us ?

Play for the club for once. Play with the passion and dreams of the people who supported you through all ages and all times. Play for us if not your own glory. Feel the priviledge of being a Devil. A Red Devil.

Never come undone. Never compromise. Never stop fighting. For without the fight, we are no more. The club illustrious history will be just a joke at the back pages of the papers. To be used as kitty litter.

Do we give up ? Do we give in ?

No. We will fight. We will support. And when the end comes, we are the truest Reds ever. Get on with the game, lads ! There is more football to fight for !!

The missing month

Where did my February go ?

It disappeared from the face of my reality. Major upheavals. Positive and negative powers collided into one whole unrecognisable mesh.

Where did my February go ?

*perplexed look*
