Little moments

little moments that make me burst out in laughter:

Comet, sitting there minding his own business when he lets out a fart.
Comet, frantically looking at his butt as if wondering "hey now... what did u just do?"
Comet, sniffing eagerly at the fart and then, back to minding his own business.

a new toy

lets see, this past long weekend was quite fun for me.
Fri i was on leave and went to watch 9 with wifey. The show was kinda below our expectation so kinda bummer for us. I think perhapes the movie couldn't tell all the details that will satisfy our curiosity. oh well.
Sat we met up with frens for dinner @ Novena and had ice cream @ Udders again. Did u know they have a make-your-own-ice-cream-cum-buffet session? So cool :D
Sun some frens came over and we had a game of Galaxy Truckers (i won :) ) and we played the newly bought Beatles Rock Band for PS3. Its so colorful and i felt that it lent the hippie mood. was a good buy for us. The frens were around for Comet's training and it was an eye-opener for them i believe.
mon we went for a wedding lunch at ONE-Degree-Fifteen. First time there and it gives the feeling of exclusivity. Though the professionalism of the staff there kinda dampens that feeling. Food was quite good and its nice to see my "mei" joining the "club" heheheh
Then we went to Vivo to get my new toy! NIKON D300S *GRIN* now i have to figure out how to use it in time for my Nov trip to Japan with mom.
Finally, we had a wonderful dinner at Magarithas (never fails to make it a good time for both wifey and me) and back home again.
Wifey's gonna be pretty busy these few days and i hope she won't get too stressed over school work.. meanwhile i'm doing what i can at home to keep things running

hehehheh :)

Interesting sharing my bd with the King of Pop... esp since he just recently passed on. Pity another legend has left us all too soon.

So my bd started off with a surprise from the wifey. As always she has a knack for springing surprises on me. But this time i almost caught her off guard as she rushed off outside near midnight to prepare the cake for me. A little bell rang in my head that she might be onto something and i stormed out and caught her in the midst of preparing :D
It was definitely nice nevertheless ahahha..

Next day we spent mostly at parents-in-laws place as i helped wifey a bit in her packing her stuff. Parents-in-laws are moving and so we need to take what wifey wants and now our storeroom-cum-bomb shelter is packed again.
Evening we, family-in-laws and my parents + my grandma had a all-too-full dinner @ THE LINE @ Shangrila where my birthday discount (33%) came in handy. There were a lot of food and the food were quite good but i think it was the desserts and the birthday cake that did me in. I was feeling overbloated after that. Still it was definitely a good place to try out.

Sun cleaned the house in the morning in preparation for my gang coming and i accidentally stepped on Comet which triggered him to bite me in my toes so i got a deep hole in the webbing between 2 toes :(
But the day was still good as i got my usual boardgaming gang over and we had quite a lot of fun. We played Small World, Ticket To Ride, Pit and Murderer (or Polar bear). Pit and Murderer never ceases to amaze me in terms of how much fun the group generally has. Though the game dynamics are rather simple, i think its the group that will make it a good or bad experience :)

so all in all, a very exciting BD weekend
Hurrah!
