Hangover

Its been a week that i last updated my blog. So fast weekend has passed. I really enjoy fri, sat & sun ;) Hee this thu is vesak day, public holiday, yahoo ;)

This weekend is filled with activities, really fun but draining i must say hee. No stamina already. Last fri, dear dear had vendor treat, good food again. So good life. Tis time round his vendor brought them to Jap bbq at chijmes. Mm sound nice. So for me, i went over to my mum's place for dinner hee ;) At around 10 plus, he came to fetch me and we bought my fav bbq wings at toa payoh market for supper. Headed home and spent time with Toby.

Hee on sat, we thought of visiting Judy & chris and there we went ;) Glad to see baileys was doing fine. Enjoyed BM's company. And baby Adrielle sleeping soundly. Me, i chit chat with Judy. Hee with her, simply can talk abt anything and everything. I always tell dear dear, that sometimes, we just need to hv the same freq friends to share openly. Somehow, with my insurance friend, i can't. Tend to reserve a bit, mm somehow just feel the freq not right lo.

Thereaft, we went to Suntec to do our grocery shopping and window shop. It was really packed! Thank god, judy & baby AN weren't there. Why? Becos, there is midnight shopping at the mall. And i suddenly remember that its the start of Great s'pore sale and many places are trying out midnight shopping, even neighbour mall like compass pt). That explains the crowd. While window shopping, we bumped into Eliz (Pam's sis) & winston. She was also complaining abt the crowd. Just like dear dear, so the topic of 6.5mil population started rolling again. Ya, i have to agree just within these 2 years, i can sense the diff when visiting malls, even the neighbour ones, somehow don't know where these pple come fr.

After we parted, we headed for an early dinner. And there is a NEW food republic at suntec in a WEIRD location. The walkway connecting the exhibition hall and the shopping mall. The one near Giodiano. Its so creepy and the seats were limited. But the setting was interesting, old english, vintage, nostalgic. Luckily, we managed to find a seat and we had the famous hokkien mee and prawn noodle. But i must say the one at wisma still taste the best! The suntec one rated the lowest.

After a fulfilling meal, we headed to our grocery shopping. As usual, dear dear bought wine to drink with friends & colleagues. This time round he bought france wine, but not as nice as the australian ones even though i just had a sip or 2. And bcos, of that, we managed to hv a $100 bill. With a $100 bill, you can buy something for $1. Between 8-9pm, was kettle for $1 but we don't need that so we waited for 15mins for the 9-10pm offer, which was a support pillow for $1 (UP $19.90). When we felt the pillow, its not that gd, i mean not worth $19.90. maybe $10 the most. Hee we still get it as only $1 and i need a new pillow ;) While waiting, I bought durian roll fr angie's the choice hee ;p

Once we reached hm, unpacked and had the durian roll. Mm delicious. And we cut kiwi to eat. We bought golden kiwi, they were really really sweet. Must try. So much better than the green ones, the green ones are too sour for my taste bud. So we rested and played with toby. Dear dear some reading while i played with our dearest boy hee ;) Mm reached midnight, we both got hungry as we had an early dinner. So we drove to Jalan Kayu for roti prata. I liked the pratas there, less oily = less sinful hee. Mm sweet dreams.

Sun, we woke up real late. 10 plus. Toby woke us up. Our dear boy has the habit of waking us or me at 10am, by jumping up the bed or licking our legs. Or simply walking into our rm and makig noise (now that he has th green card to enter the rm while we were in it. Silly but loving boy.

Oh ya, as we will be having social bbq with his colleagues and vendors, we went to my pil's place early with toby. Dropped toby at pil's place be4 we had brunch at chong pang hawker centre. I missed the days at rowdy hawker center so i asked dear dear if we can go there eventhough it was hot i must say. Just miss the feeling and walking ard the wet market looking at fishes, fruits etc.

After that, he took me down memory lane. We went to sembawang area, where he used to lived during his younger days. Now its flat land. He showed me the drain where he caught fishes. And he was jokingly saying that be4 he dies, he will visit this place again. Ya some things are just so memorable. I was also sharing with him that we had been together for more than 10 years already, so used to each other and the companionship. We must continue to stick together till old age.

Evening came, and we headed to the bbq at clearwater condo. His colleagues and vendors were friendly. In total, 5 couples plus their children. The hostress really cooked very well! (This inspires me to continue to sharpen my cooking skills) She prepared baileys cream puff and it was delicious. And best mee siam i tasted so far! And the kids were really fun and disciplined. They played in the pool non stop. They really full of energy! Me, i tried to socialise with the wives hee. Mm must be sociable to give dear dear some face hee. And i think i did a not too bad job. I started a few conversations hee.

As night fell, the drinking began. These guys can really drink!!! I never seen such gd drinkers in my life. Just one night 5 couples, drank 10 bottles of wine. Imagine, we ladies were light drinkers, so techically speaking each man drank 2 bottles of red wine!!! Can't imagine. I didn't want to drink but the dear dear's working associate invited me to try some so cannot turn down. I tried and started to feel hot. But ok. Then, he started to pour more, hee half cup lah, to me a lot already ;p. So i drank but cheated a bit ha ha. A bit dizzy but still ok. One of the wives can really drink, she drank a few glasses!! Wow amazing! Overall, it was a very nice evening, listening to them talking & joking around. And most importantly, by dear dear's side, meeting the pple he mixed with. Now can attached pics to the pple he shared wth me.

Mm now abt my dear dear, given that he drank 2 bottles, he really "down". He vomitted aft reaching hm. So i attended to him, rubbing ointmt on him and our sweet toby, sitting near to daddy while he was vomitting into the toilet bowl. So so funny, the whole family in the toilet ;) On the way back hm, he was sharing that sometimes it is not easy to reject the drink offer. Now i can understand why, his vendor will keep "encouraging" you to drink. But i still reminded him to be careful as he has a family at home, a cute toby and a loving wife at home ha ha.

And i also learn that it is really a plus if i can drive. I can better attend to him.

Mm a long post today. And i am still tired despite sleeping till 11am today. The power of wine. And dear dear at work now. Still hvg headache. Hope he can come hm early to rest.
