Ramblings

i know im supposed to post on day 3 in shanghai. but im really jus too lazy to do it. discipline has been thrown out the window lately and the other consequences of that include a seemingly growing hole in my wallet and what seems like the start of a pot-belly.

been thinking of signing up for a gym membership. so has J. we both agree we need to exercise more. now it is a matter of finding the willpower in keeping with a weekly regime and also the heart to part with hard-earned cash that would otherwise be put to other more gratifying uses e.g. buying myself a 27" monitor or going on a mad shopping spree to enhance my very small wardrobe.

and national day has passed. singapore is now 42 years of age. time sure flies. jus as a colleague had commented the other day, "funny how time flies when u r occupied with something. otherwise it just crawls." he used "occupied" cos he was referring to the work we had to do. otherwise im quite sure he would have used "fun" instead.

national day passed in a jiff. not very eventful tho. thankfully in a way. my stomach was in bad shape through most of the earlier wk, the holiday and the wkend just past. i believe the alcohol consumption over the past few days have upset it somewhat in addition to the fact i had mussels on national day for lunch. been chugging down bottles of yoghurt daily to try and mitigate the effects of the mussels, but being a little lactose intolerant means there is a "3 steps forward 2 steps back" effect.

and whaddaya know. yoghurt is spelt yogurt in firefox. i know one is american english the other is british english, but i dunno which is which.

national day also marks the birthday of my little doggy niece, twinkle. which we had celebrated the wkend earlier. my sis had flown back specially for the little tyke. a bbq was held at which my new doggy nephew, knut, decided to do some base jumping out of my dad's arms and onto his head. scared him shitless for all of 5mins before the birthday cake came out for twinkle.

i do detect a fair amount of resemblance btwn myself and the little devil. kindred spirits we must be. J refuses to believe me though despite my constant efforts to get her to see how similarly furry, cuddly and adorable i am. tho small i am not, i do not believe size is a factor here.

im sure evry1 else would believe me.
