birthday wishes

and so it's November and the slew of bday's have started. lazy me is going to do the mass bday wishes thing because ... well ... i'm lazy ... and i don't usually do the bday thing ... so this is big ... that i'm actually doing this.

4 nov - bling - i haven't seen or spoken to bling in abt 5 years. but i still have her close in mind. anyways, i recently wanted to call another B person when i fat-fingered my contact list and called her instead. i quickly hung up coz i'm really bad at the whole keeping in touch thing. abt 1 hour later, she calls back. thankfully it's already nov so i did the happy bday thing and we managed to catch up a bit. i told her the truth abt fat-fingering and she still loves me :) and THAT's the scorp difference people!

6 nov - Poochiespider and Obsidian - what can i say ... you hotties keep bringing sexy back!

8 nov - DG!! - must share this ... the family made effort to call DG last night and put the call on speaker. we heard the "hello" and we all started singing the bday song. and in 2 languages. even baby was shouting in the back; but she always shouts anyways ... when we were done, the person said, "sorry wrong number" and hung up! i sent DG a text this morning and and wished her belated love instead.

9 nov - cheryl-ann superstar because that's who you areeeeeeee!

10 nov - angel girl (i'm planning math tuition for her on this day ... just to freak her out .... muah ah ah)

13 nov - me!!! but i'll be in bali that day (for 3 days) so pls don't get all emo if you leave FB and SMS messages and i'm late in replying. i will reply ... once the massages wear off and i get movement in my fingers again :)

and i think it ends here. phew.

but if you want to read some more, here are my past bday blogs which still brings on a smile whenever i re-read it. enjoy! not sure why that last one was included under the bday search but i'm not gonna question the powers behind blogspot.

spice up your life

DG : btw - having indian for lunch... this indian not as satisfying as ur indian. now must have ur indian... maybe we should just do indian on saturday ... (that sounds wrong)

me : yup ....esp since i actually DO have an indian

DG : hmmm... I think I'm getting less tolerant of spice; my mouth can take it (the spice) ... everything else following can't. BUT I still crave indian

me : you can have MY indian

DG : no will just go for indian food ... u can keep ur indian...

sigh ... another foiled chance at trading in the hubs

the diva wave

baby turned 1 last sunday. we had the family over and did a quiet party. tho i have to say that it was tuff to keep it quiet w 4 rambunctious kids running around. anyhoo, the godma gave dollface her first bling ... a silver charm bracelet. our friend was busy showing it off the whole day. the baby loves her jewellery - we're so in trouble!

.... urm ... as you can see from the clip, it was a good thing DG switched it off when she did coz i was about to unleash the sailor in me. why? coz i thot she was taking a picture and i was carrying miss thang for so long. turns out she was doing a clip - good timing babes :P

setting phasers to stun ... and other nerdball conversations

mom's in bangkok now, celebrating her bday. it's possibly the last holiday i pay for her before the baby and new house comes. anyways, last night, i was experiencing major contractions. i swear i thought i was going to give birth!

me : so what happens if my water breaks tonight. who's going to look after the kids?
hubs : we'll leave AG in charge.
me : noooo, she's not going to be in charge.
hubs : look you can decide on anything you want, but i'm leaving her incharge.
me : don't be an ass ....
hubs : so rude!

how this man expected me to give birth in peace with the thought of my 9 year-old holding fort is beyond me.

so what do i do, i sms my child-phobic gay friend to be on standby.

me : i don't mean to scare you, but if i go into labour tonight, can you come over to look after the kids?
DG : eh ok. why do you say you are going into labour tonight?
me : she's hanging real low and i'm mondo uncomfortable. Also i've got contractions ... tho not consistent enuf ... yet.
DG : oh ok ... the kids got school tomorrow?
me : yes, but if i do go into labour, just leave them at home.
DG : but i've got an 8am meeting. need side kick help ... dee? obsidian?
me : lets not panic first ok. we cross our fingers and toes.
DG : ok will standby panic button. phasers set to stun
me : and scotty better be able to beam you here pronto! thanks babes!

now in hindsight, i wonder if hubs was right to want to leave the fort with my 9 year-old and whether i should have engaged the retro meeting-maker still stuck in a time warp. either way, thanks DG for being game : ) i dunno about you, but i slept peacefully.

inner moses

dang! stuck in traffic on the highway with a sea of cars surrounding us. da godma and i are late for dinner at a friend's and we are not in the best of moods. she's frustrated coz of work and i didn't pee before getting into her car and we're already 35mins into the journey.

she looks and me, i look at her. i offer a smile, she's not amused. so i summoned my powers and stretched out my arms at the traffic hoping to part a path. i opened my eyes and the cars were still there. i turned to DG and said,"sorry babe, i channeled my inner moses and it didn't work. the sea of red tail lights ain't moving. not my night." she broke into a smile, but just a smidgen.

the journey eventually took an hour-some, coz we got lost - we almost made it to malaysia i think. my bladder was bursting. my ears were hurting coz DG was ranting the whole way and she is long-winded and theatrical (believe you me). on top of that, she drives a "no-smoking" vehicle! the best we could do was wind the windows down and scream. which we did successfully : )

threesome

last weekend, hubs, wentworth miller and i had a threesome. we kept going and going at it for at least 6 hrs each night. on sunday (day), all hubs and i could only think abt was getting home and putting the kids to sleep early so that we could start again as soon as possible. last evening, da godma came by just when we started. we tried to entice her to join our threesome (we're kinky that way), but she remained disinterested. she stayed for a tease then left.

hubs and i agree that we are addicted, wanting more after each session. of course we have smoke breaks in between, to recharge. who would have thought that we would have it in us to do this all night long and so many times at a stretch. but we did. we are very tired ... but it was all so very worth it :) we are going to do it again tonight.

you see, we have 8 episodes left of the 22-episode box-set to watch. yes people, hubs and i gave up weekend sex for a "prison break" marathon. it was THAT good.

btw ... GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF THE GUTTER, April fools!

balcony seats

12 years ago, da godma and i were colleagues. we were such snobs to each other. then one fine smoke-break, we were forced to talk (coz the smoking area was really small - REALLY!) and found that we had many common friends, that we are the same age, that we are both convent girls and most imptly both scorps with bdays just days away from each other. how cool is that! A FRIEND WAS BORN.

from that mo, we gave humour and laughter to each other when work was shit. comforted each other's sore asses whenever our boss eff-ed us for something we didn't do. i think we may have almost given each other lung cancer as we smoked our way thru many late nights and burnt weekends. A good support group (and marlboro) are sooo impt when work is overwhelming.

thru the years, our relationship morphed from friend to family. when angel-girl was born, hubs and i knew we wanted her to be a part of our family for life, so we made her da godma to our precious first born. don't you love it when you can actually choose your family?!

she has taken this role very seriously. she comes round every weekend to hang with the fam. when the kids are finally asleep, we get to do what we like to do best, out-wit, out-goof and out-geek each other. (but she wins the geek race hands down).
