11/28/2012 :: day 8

start of the second week :: we're getting closer to Armageddon baby!

woke up late, hubby also late in arriving from work. perfect combo right? unfortunately hubby didn't text me he's going home late per his usual routine plus I couldn't call his phone. guess who didn't kiss someone's spouse good morning today? but I still watched The Walking Dead with him coz I'm really not that mad :p

our late breakfast consisted of dimsum leftovers from last night's dinner and canned pork n beans. lunch was beefsteak. dinner was fried shanghai rolls (sooo good!). and then hubby was so impatient in getting to work tonight despite that it was still early. ggrrr.. something's really fishy!! and now I'm getting really angry!

spent the morning tidying up the house coz my parents are coming over (yay!) for a long visit. spent also the time looking for the cheapest iPad Mini / Nexus 7 and Samsung Galaxy S3 (hubby's dearest wish). I've already saved up for an iPad for the kids and has zero budget for S3, but it looks like hubby's the one getting something expensive this Christmas! hope our toddler won't mind.. o.O

and speaking of The Walking Dead, holy crap! this show's just keep on getting better and better! next week is the mid-season finale, with Rick Grimes finally confronting the Governor. can't hardly wait!! as for Grimm, our other favorite show,  the mid-season finale was last week where Munroe revealed to Nick that the man his amnesiac gf is seeing on the side is none other than his Police Captain boss! such a cliffhanger!!

family nuggets: our toddler's fascination with Nemo has reached fever pitch (TMI: her poop is still runny! been 3 days already. wonder what's wrong..). our baby is learning how to climb (before walking) and has lots of words! a very sociable kid :) my parents arrived mid-afternoon and disrupted the kids' naps which led to a bit of crying jag from the baby <sigh> the toddler got two (!!) new shoes from her grandparents, and 2 Christmas ornaments to paint. me? I got pre-cooked food! haha! the baby? none! T__T

as for the world, there's a partial lunar eclipse at 8pm-ish today (GMT+8) and can be seen in my country. unfortunately I missed it, sadness! I've missed so many celestial events already, mostly due to mommy duties. sometimes I wonder if my life will ever get back to "normal" o.O anyway, in celebrity news, I've come across a disturbing article about Gavin Rossdale having his way with their nanny who looks like a younger version of his wife, Gwen Stefani. the couple has been together since 1995 and I love them to bits because of it!

11/27/2012 :: day 7

and the first week countdown to the Apocalyse is done.

funny thing, my period FINALLY arrived today so it's safe to say that it's not the end of my world, haha! my gahd, can you imagine having 3 kids at this time and age?? can't wrap my head around it! o.O anyway, since I need some lady stuff, we decided to go grocery shopping early (payday is still 3 days away). but first we had dinner in Mongkok, a dimsum place. the food was totally yummy!! the service, however, was totally awful. had to follow up our rice and shark's fin dumplings (not from real fin, don't worry, hehe) more than 3 times! by the time all the orders were in (pork ribs in tausi, seafood roll, chicken & mushroom rice, shark's fin dumpling), the first ones were already cold <sigh> still, it was a flavorful meal!

then came grocery shopping where we spent around $50, mostly for our toddler's fruits and hubby's beauty needs, LOL! tis true though, my hubby cannot live without lotion and other beauty health stuff. already he's obsessing on having white hair o.O me? I can just live with soap and water. for sure, when Apocalypse comes, hubby will have to majorly adjust on not having beauty products. after grocery we went home and I set about cleaning our tiny studio. my parents are to due to arrive tomorrow afternoon and I want our home to be spic and span. and so I spent the night washing my babies' clothes, scrubbing the bathroom and kitchen, and arranging / picking up toys, magazines and whatever is on the floor :p

it's nearly 12mn now and I'm not yet done with the ref (have to throw rotting stuff as my mom hates that) and wardrobe cabinet. but I gotta have a break so here I am blogging :) in world news, the online version of the Chinese Communist Party's official newspaper got punk'd with The Onion's article on North Korea's Kim Jong-un as the "sexiest man alive" for 2012, LOL! only Commies would fall for that article o.O some good news: Greece will receive bailout money worth $57B. hope that it will all be put into good use and help the Greeks stand up again. meanwhile, in Hollywood, Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber are rumored to be back together after sharing a kiss over dinner! not sure if Bieber's fans are happy with this news though..
