A Hard Day's Work

I snoozed the alarm.

I woke up proper at 5.33 am.
The day had just begun for me.
And now the day had just ended for me.

Birthday Party for the Boy

So we got invited to a pre-birthday BBQ for the eldest boy. Changi Village was the venue and bring an empty stomach was the instruction. Presents are optional but plenty of play time with the kids are required.

So off we went. First to get the present and then to Changi.

Ah.

But alas the plans we made were not meant to be realised. First we got side tracked by the super late start to the day. Then we got stuck in the office for longer than thought. And finally I had to throw a hissy fit that almost killed the night and my sisters' love. For with just a couple of messages, I'd almost became the least favourite sister.

But almost was the key word.

We went.
We met.
We ate.

And that was good. Lovely time for the kids as well. :-)

I Saw Tony Stark again!

I did. I did see him the other day and I saw him again today! He had shaved his beard off so he was trying to blend in with the general population. Good call, Dude!

So he IS on a mission. shussssh

You didn't hear or read this from me and my blog. Keep this piece of news on the QT. :-)

Food Poisoning

So it came to be that my Dear, Sweetheart, Darling Baby came down with a major case of food poisoning. Don't know what he ate that didn't sit well in his tummy.

I escaped unscathed except for the "Panda eyes" for the lack of sleep. Dear woke up in the wee hours in the morning, sick in his tummy aside from running an obscenely high fever.

Poor Baby..

So, here I am writing for the whole world to read. Dear had gone to the Doc's and had gotten two days medical leave. Hopefully he gets well soon. Poor Sayang!

*Bo Chapness is just a state of the mind

To be quite frank, the Dear had been saying that I had jumped from the frying pan straight into the grill/stove top/fire. And I think I will have to agree. It makes perfect sense since I had been complaining about a number of things not in the order I had come to expect since I started at the new "work place".

I had given the fair amount of chances to certain people here as, well, people being humans are not infallible. Time and again they have come up short. The kind of attitude I see towards their work and the pride they have in fulfilling their duties are, hmmm ... The same as the place I had left.

So I am disheartened. To see the state of *bo chap-ness so inherent here. A handful of colleagues seemed to not have that attitude but the majority always wins, yes ?

And so, I have adopted the majority. Behold, the new *bo chap me. She who will fly high in her cape of T-Shirts and Polo-Ts to office !

*Bo chap means a don't care attitude frequently used as a local slang

I saw Tony Stark today

I did.

I was on my second connecting bus to work today, minding my own business and listening to the songs on my iPod and the next thing when I looked up towards the boarding passengers, Tony Stark !!

He came on at the bus stop before Newton MRT station in his glorious peach polo T. With his moustache neatly trimmed, he didn't fool me. Everyone else thinks he's just an ordinary guy but I know better.

He is Tony Stark !!!

In his normal guy persona, I assumed he is on a mission.

Best of luck, Stark !! Or shall I say Ironman ?

*winks*

Year End, Post Depression

Yeah, another 2 whole months before the year 2011 starts. And what a cracking start it will be. To be quite honest, with all the upheavals happening in my life in the past few months, time did pass by very quickly.

The change of the second residence. The change of employment. The change of my status with him. We are like two peas in a pod. Snuggling cosily and acting in synchrony. Until someone takes us out of the pod and put us in the wrong positions and place. Yikes ! We fight and we argue and we cry and we decide, we want to be back in our cosy corners and we made up. We are friends again.

*hugs* to the one I love and adore and abide and drive crazy.

We live, we love and we die. All in the natural progression of life.

Cheers !
