Sunday, 2 September 2007

The verdict : Tastes good :> But can't get them into blocks. Dunno why....sigh. A few did come in pieces but the rest will have to eat with spoon lololol.
Met up with godma & an aunty whom I have not seen in years yesterday for lunch. Chatted & caught up till almost 4pm. It was a nice get-together. Then dinner with kids at botak jones (again!) cos the kids wanted. Bumped into my cousin, his wife & son. Baby sooooo cute !


Found the coconut candy recipe in an old recipe book from godma. Made it just & we shall see how it turns out lol. It looks & smells fine lol. Hope it tastes good. We shall see. Verdict later.

CSI Sundays !

Pace is picking up at work. I have a full next week. Will take my mind off why work is no longer as fun as before. I still like what I do but well...I have lamented why before. Not gonna go there again. Will get really agitated & visualise the face before me making me so want to puke & be downright rude (read : potty mouth). lol.
Lunch was a BLT sandwich with foccacia bread....haven't had that in a while. So it was good. In the evening, headed to arab street to get the baskets for press conf & then home as it was already past 5. I am looking for the old fashioned coconut candy in small blocks in colours of green, yellow, pink to put in the baskets as giveaways. Am told may still have in chinatown so must make a trip there. Maybe tmr for lunch though I should do it off my lunch break & definitely not on my personal time after work or on a weekend. I didn't think this way before & wasn't calculative. I'd go the extra mile & more. But now... screw it !
Lament for the day : Screw it !

Yep yep hubby came home with a shitload of fish ! The group caught an estimated 500kg. Got lots of Garoupa lah, coral trout, leather jacket lah. Gave away to our entire floor of neighbours & they were happy. Not the first time we give them fish fresh from the oceans. So much so that one of the neighbours bought us yummy swiss roll cakes from Kandahar Street. Gave each neighbour 2 or 3 fish, gave godparents some & we still got alot for ourselves. There was one 3kg muther kerisi bali & the bladdy head/tail stuck out of our freezer compartment door. This one hubby gave away to a friend, let him de-scale lah, de-gut lah & clean the fish LOL. Too much work lol.

Some huge ones & some table sized. There was a part of a chinaman fish (??????) hubby brought home...it was portioned out to share with his other fishing kakis. BUT one kaki called & warned that becos the fish eats coral, can have poisonous elements. So we were told to throw away lor.
Took leave yesterday & half day today. Did some errands, Cora's work permit extension etc, went to see a friend who was in hospital & had heart sugery to repair a leaking artery. His wound was all the way from below the throat down to the belly. Just like a bypass. But he is being discharged & looks well.
Oh watched Hairspray. John Travolta in drag was really funny. One huuuge mama ! The voice cannot run though. Fun movie. Enjoyed the music even though singers & the acting not so fantastic. No need to think so much, just sit back & relax type. Got a bit of morale in the story also.

Note to Lica : see...I don't just watch gory movies :p

Hubby is out of town fishing ! Back Sunday.

Work is still so-so & I do so want to get out. When opportunities arise & when the time is right, I will. The heart & passion has fizzled out all becos of one person. Oh trust me, it ain't petty. When integrity is questioned especially when one has not done any wrong, it farking sux ! As far as I am concerned, my integrity is intact with all the proof. I now know how others in the same boat feel. Actually the whole situation is ridiculous & smacks of desperation...the other party lah.

What is that phrase ? When you point one finger at someone, don't forget the other 3 fingers point back at yourself. The thumb doesn't work if you are wondering why only 3 fingers point back lol. The thumb is to stick up the ass lololol.

Lament for the day : Dunno who is playing games leh.

It has been a bad weekend thus far. Last night I felt such a dull ache in my heart. Wretched & wrenching. And I am not feeling any much better today. No desire to do anything useful or meaningful.

Even more pathetic is that I am re-reading half blood prince & watched the harry potter series all over again today. Just to keep my mind off things.

Work is so-so. It has degenerated to be described in such meagre terms. Sadly all becos of the one.

Lament for the day : Shitty...just that one word.

Hmm no laffing matter...poor baby. Sarah fell down. There is a small drain along the pathway & for some stupid reason, the grating was removed. Right in the middle of a pathway ?? wtf ?? Her whole left leg went in. No broken bones, at least I dun think so. Glad she didn't hit her head or face.

Thing is her sense of humour hasn't abated. Told us she fell infront of 2 schoolboys who helped her up...said they were quite cute too lol. Well the boys have a story to tell...hey this IJ girl fell for us...right at our feet ! Oh, the boys were very responsible, they covered the drain with the grating. Good going boys ! Offered to stay with sarah for a bit but she told them no need. Think she wanted to cry but not infront of them. If I were her I also dun wan to cry infront of 2 cute guys...or would I ??? Can't even remember being 15 how to remember what I would do bleah !

Doc says its her ligament, thankfully no fracture so no need for x-ray. 2 days MC & then no PE or bowling till end next week. If not better then have to extend the excuse. Ligament is no joke cos I have a ligament problem with my knee. Can't bowl cos its the left balance knee & going down the stairs pull & little sharp pains. Old age also plays a part. bleah !!

Done re-reading HP & the order of the phoenix. No wonder I didn't enjoy the movie. Want to re-read half blood prince. lol must be in this mood for potter. Potty for potter lol.

Meeting was fine, no hitches. Everyone was in a good mood. After that spent too much time answering emails...ugh. Its such a drag but I still do what I am paid to do & do it properly. Whatever it is, I still take pride in doing work well. Perhaps the passion has lessened a tat but oh well. Not gonna give anyone reason to bitch. But it is still a drag.

what did I say before ? I am having a bad day & I'm not even PMsing LOL.

Lament for the day : Go for meeting feel guilty cos of sarah....dun go meeting, may kena poked by some people.

Met with simon, evon & godson clovis last night for dinner in an amk coffeeshop. Decided not to go to botak jones. Maaan ! My godson sure can yell lol ! He has started walking & after dinner, let him walk around for abit. He was hurtling so fast I was afraid he would fall. His dad said "wait till he starts to run" and sarah said "this not running meh ?" lolol.

Made two trays of shepherd's pie & I tray of apple crumble for sarah's mustard seed meeting. Fortunately one of the girls brought pasta otherwise may not have been enough. Cos sarah said the members would be bringing something & then she told a couple of them no need cos enough food. Well it was just nice, thankfully. They did say pie & crumble was nice...what nice people they are LOL. Hubby made his famous lime juice but the limes had no kick today leh...dunno why. Added more than usual some more.

Watched Robin Hood Men in Tights on cable this afternoon...lame lolol.

Sarah had another article in catholic news, small one on the harry potter series. She mentioned family in the article...sweet.

Meeting evon, simon & my godson for dinner tomorrow ! Gonna try botak jones again. Wonder if we will have to wait an hour again...??? Ohhhh the cheesecake there is gooooood !!

Lament for the day : maybe can start own business selling shepherd's pie & apple crumble instead of dragging my feet ???
