The year of the Tiger

3rd day of the new year and im sitting at home in my short and tank top, fanning myself because of the intense heat. The weather has been amazingly warm and ultra humid.

Eve of the new year was busy but manageable - hei has just return from his "Cobra Affair" in Pattaya and we slept in a little til 9.30am. Grabbed some lunch, withdrew and changed some money and managed to find a pet shop that was open so that Vicky and Joey wont starve during the holidays. Dinner at the Wees was enjoyable. Thanks dad for the peeled prawns. Followed by a lo hei session at the Tays.

Typical first day of CNY, temple in the morning - said hi to grandma but forgot grandpa. Oops...Chiing and I ran back to the alter and apologise profusely to ah-kong , only to follow the apology with a request to strike lottery....haha. After that, we went down to greet MB.B and ate good mee sua. Drama struck as normal at S.C Ah-ma house and at noon, after 2 phone calls from Jyn, we rushed down to Gremlim's place.

"Write your name on the ang pow" Gremlim kept telling me.

There, Chiing and I watched Hei stone and 2 uncles with a combined age above 100 teasing a less than 1 year old baby to laugh. It was hilarious yet heartwarming to watch.

By 3pm, Hei and I were home, unconscious. Only woke up when Mother Tay called to ask "You guys are not coming right?" Double meaning words, we shot up and move our asses.

The evening was spent in Whampoa - more eating, more fanning from the heat and waiting for Mother Tay to finish playing MJ. At midnight, she walked out and asked us to go home first. Ahhh! We could have left at 1030.

2nd day of CNY - Mackers Big Breakfast Deluxe. YUM. Fed the fishes. Watched TV, watched TV, napped. Went to buy dinner.

Dominoes and Yu Sheng - FUSION.

And as luck would have it, we accidentally threw away out tv remote control. Great.

At 2215, we started a MJ game at Bee's house. It was too late to start and by the time we were done - it was 4am. It was then followed by supper in Geylang.

6am - we slept.

10.45am - I woke. The ironing started.

12 noon - Hei woke.

1pm - Lunch.

2.50pm - I blog this entry.

Soon Ill be going to Lynn's place - more eating, more drinking.
