Jay invited me over to his place for dinner because we hadn't seen each other for a while.

It didn't occur to me until earlier tonight, but moving last year put a lot more physical distance between myself and some of my friends. I got too accustomed to the drop-bys at my old place. But with living here and petrol prices they seem to be a thing of ( Read more... )

Nobody bothered to tell me about thisI love the Turtles. Although the new cartoon and the last couple of movies were kind of lame... But these are new CGI Turtles ( Read more... )

I went to the Cup party of Sho's boss today. It was one of those parties where you have to wear a tie (or at least more formal attire). I like ties, but I don't like having to wear them mostly because I associate having to wear them with having to behave myself. I'm not that bad really. But formal situations tend to irk me ( Read more... )

Earlier tonight I was sitting in the kitchen with Shoana doing one of those cryptic crosswords when my uncle called because he felt like giving me a lecture ( Read more... )

Today my cousin's kid says to me as I'm pulling a jumper over my head "You look like a hatchback!" I'm a bit puzzled by it, but then he says, "like in the movie" and it dawns on me. "Oh, you mean a hunchback?"

He still thinks I mispronounced it though.

I suspect that Friday is the day I am getting my belated Christmas present and I wonder if Shoana thought she was being covert when we had this conversation ( Read more... )

We went to the beach today as it was 42.9 degrees (109.22F apparently). But Sho spent too much time in the sun and as we were heading back to the car she said she wasn't feeling very well and threw up (partly on Dean who was rather good about it). By the time we got to the car she told me that she had the worst headache she had ever had in her life ( Read more... )

This is part of a conversation I had with my girlfriend's mother while eating lunch at my place while waiting for the girl to get ready. Not exact words, but pretty damn close as it's not something I'd forget in a hurry.

Her: Good noodles?
Me: Yeah, they're alright.
Her: What flavour?
Me: Prawn.
Her: ...prawn noodles? Eww ( Read more... )

Last night my Mother called just before she got off of work and asked me if I wanted to go out to dinner with her, so not being one to turn down free food and not having to cook for the night, I agreed (However, in my absence my non-stick frying pan had a near death experience due to Jason's non-existent sandwich frying skills ( Read more... )

Thursday - Jason took two weeks worth of rent up to the LL in the hope that he wouldn't show up here while I wasn't home and decide to invite himself in. I have a lot of work lined up for the next two weeks so hopefully I will be able to afford my planned vacation along with the slew of birthdays coming up. There's just something about money ( Read more... )
