the weekend
the weekend was rather emotional.got a call on friday with the news that she didn't get the job she wanted most. alas it wasn't something surprising as she didn't fit the entire scope in the first place. at least she tried no? glum glum glum. anyhow, the other half tried cheering her up with pizza for dinner after last week's dinner fiasco. the one-for-one from spizzoco (i think) was a good deal considering how yummy the salami was. the other flavour was a bad choice (hers to boot somemore), it had little onion bits all over and she very nearly gagged after two slices. she could've sworn she saw no onions on the menu when she was ordering it.

saturday morning was fun. she thought she'll end up looking five kilos heavier on print but no! so the gym work did turn out good, at least the $138 per month didn't go down the drain. hopefully her folks and family will never get to see that tattoo picture book or she'll have loads of explaining to do, in particular pseudo master. noon was spent catching up with tam and celine at marche heeren. haven't seen tam for the longest time and it broke my heart hearing her story. men, in general are big assholes and those who think with their dicks are often stupid ones who are not smart enough to recognise who's capable of supporting them on a long term basis. on another note, it's weird how the three of us are going through career hazards now. one's jobless, one's serving her notice and one's going through an extremely rocky stage. the night was spent alone with eyes glued to BBC on the bali bombings. how ironic that BBC covers more live updates than the local news when we are in fact closer to bali? my sympathies go out to the balinese.

sunday morning was the second time in my life i woke up for morning church service, the first was last easter. it's a big feat for an agnostic to finally step into a church on her own freewill. the other half knows she's struggling to believe in all things religious, heaven and God but she's thankful he's been so patient all this time holding her hand as she doubts, loses focus and rant. lunch was spent watching open water, their DVD choice of the week. it's so disappointing cos the storyline had tremendous potential for really great material but the editing was a let down. thought the story would have been stronger if they had used the alternative opening scene where the diver's bag was washed ashore. ah well. headed off with pseudo master and mom to gramp's place for dinner. the car ride and the rest of the evening was ruined by his sudden foul and horrid menopausal moods where he became master of the universe and anyone who contradicted his point of view was scum in his eyes. whatever, me and mom are taking it easy these days cos we're looking forward to a week of peace when he leaves for paris and geneva this thursday. *evil* anyhow, he seemed better this morning so hopefully the black clouds will depart and he'll be back to normal by end day.
