we're all good
Tuesday, May 02, 2006
Blogger's being cranky. I'm trying to view my homepage, and I don't see my banner and my entire sidebar. Crap. All the links to what would've been my bloghopping frenzy are there, and now I'm stuck. Yeah, I should have them in my bookmarks, but I'm lazy and I always bloghop from my blog. I figure it's a good start. I know I can also check the forums and see the links to their blogs, but again, I'm lazy. LOL!
Mr. S is out for the evening with his friends. I miss the tub of lard already, and I have difficulty sleeping when I don't feel his fat beside me. The bed is too big with just me on it. And speaking of Mr. S, we're all good now. hehe! I've been doing a lot of thinking, and I really hate not paying him any attention, so I declared a truce last Friday night. Ok, so maybe it has something to do with the fact that he's buying me a new laptop as his anniversary present. LOL!!!!! Am I a sucker or what?!?! Ok, don't answer that. I gotta admit...I can be bought. HAHAHAHAHA!!! No, but seriously, I thought long and hard about what I was doing. I just didn't feel right feeling that way days before our anniversary. Chubby-hubby has his faults, but he does make up for it in some other way. He may not have a romantic bone in his body, nor can he cough up a surprise even if his life depended on it. But that's the way he is and I knew that even before, and I guess I have to make him realize that I need those things sometimes. Compromise, right? Yeah, I distinctly remember learning that from Sesame Street.
To celebrate our anniversary, Tubby did take me out on a dinner date at a resto I loved. We went to Good Earth, which is a Chinese resto, and they have the most deeeelicious seared tuna sashimi on the face of the planet. LOL! We ordered a feast!!! Aside from the seared tuna sashimi, we ordered lobster balls, fried wanton, prawns with garlic sauce, scallops with asparagus spears, and their special fried rice. Yummmmmy!!! By the time we were done (we only had a few spoonfuls of rice left as proof that we'd been there!), we were so full that I was sure we had to be carted out of the place. LOL! Then we headed on to Starbucks to finish off the meal with a good brew. Aaaahhh...that was an orgasmic delight!
Hey, wanna know what I got Mr. S? I got him four presents! First, I got him this cute Nike shirt that said "I scored last night!" on the front, then some football league at the back. LOL! I thought it was too funny, and I knew I had to get it for Tubs. Then I got him a pair of cool cargo shorts, which he loves to wear. Then I got him a pair of casual pants in a fab color. And lastly, I got him a really nice polo shirt at Ralph Lauren. It was so funny cause I gave him the gifts one at a time. When he woke up, I greeted him, gave him a kiss, and handed gift #1. When he went to have breakfast, gift #2 was waiting for him on the dining table. Then when he headed to the kitchen to get himself a Coke (yes, first thing in the morning!), gift #3 was waiting there too. Then after breakfast, I waited for him in our room and handed him gift #4 which was hiding under the bed. Fun!!! I was almost more excited than he was about the gifts. LOL!!!
So although the anniversary has come and gone, I'm still working on the album I wanted to make. How's that for timely, huh? Heehee! But I love making pages from our wedding photos. Here's the second one I did.

Ju Bean) Cool Hat layout at 2peas. The SweetNSassy team of
Robin have an ongoing challenge right now, where we scraplift each other every week. Last week, we were lifting Gail's work, and her pages are sooo amazing. She works with a lot of white space, and I love her style.
This next layout I did is the most challenging I've done. Ever. This week, we're scraplifting Peta (
little possum) and when I saw her album, I was floored! Lots of gorgeous stuff in there, but what struck me was how honest her pages were. I'm sure you've noticed that I don't do a whole lot of journaling in my pages. Well, I decided to lift Peta's work not just in design, but in journaling as well. Here's my lift of her I Believe In a Better Way layout at 2peas.

Well, I gotta hit the sack. I'll leave you with my latest layout of Chloe. May her sweetness find its way into your day, bellas!
