Torturous Sunday

Yesterday was torturous, healthwise.

Upon reaching my in-law's place I began to experience shortness of breath.

It was mostly waiting for prayers (to the dieties) preparations in the morning.

After a sumptuous (but late) lunch, my stomach began to produce lots of wind.
From then on, it was a continuous 4 hours of belching and..., you know what. (My wife and I call it 'feel like a rocket').

In the evening, a different prayer was carried out - the Hungry Ghost Festival.
Red candles, incense, biscuits and lots of Hell notes, Gold ingots, clothings were burnt for our friends in the nether world.

Then it was dinner and back home. TV and bed ensued.

Yawn!...

Japanese ex-Boss

My ex-boss emailed me from Japan today.
Surprising. I just dreamed about him last night.

Think I'll be meeting the Malaysian Premier, Mr. Badawi soon.
Dreamed of him night before.

Tired neck, shoulders and need a good massage...

24th August 2002

Got a headache, neck-ache and painful eyeballs this morning.

The good memory for today is ..
.. its our 2nd year anniversary for knowing each other. Me and my wife.

24th August 2002, Saturday.
Was at Jaya's place till about 5pm. Went back for a bath.
Drove to town to meet my ex-colleague, who was to introduce me to his wife's sister.
Nearly got lost. Almost couldn't make it to the pre-arranged meeting place.
Fortunately, still made it, albeit late.

Thanks to my ex-colleague, now my brother-in-law, she is now my sweet wife.

I love you , my dear wife.

Kuala Kubu Baru

A leisurely drive to KKB on Sunday late morning.

It was a good trip.

The laid back, life in KKB.
The coffee shop - the tea, butter-kaya toast, homemade chinese herbal tea...
The chinese coffee shop styled restaurant...
The hainanese fare at the Rumah Rehat Kerajaan Golf View..
The kaya puffs at the local cake shop..
The fresh homemade kaya...

And all the friendly people of Kuala Kubu Baru.

What a place !

My entire being depends on You, my Lord Krishna;

Please may I always be in your eternal love;
Please may I always be in your protection and care;
Please may I be in your care all the time.

Dear Lord,
Please, may my wife be protected by You always;
Please, may my wife be healthy always;
Please, may my wife be kind and thoughtful to me always;
Please, may my wife be loving to me always;

Dear Lord,
Please, may a healthy son be borned unto us soon;
Please, may our healthy son be brought up with ease and comfort;
Please, may our son be a devotee of YOU the Lord always;
Please, may our son be mindful of YOU the Lord all his life;
Please, may our son be good to the WORLD which belongs to YOU, our Lord;

It was fun laughing like this again

Nope, no homecooked dinner last nite. Instead had pizza for dinner with my dear wife.
Followed by shopping. We bought a pair of slippers for me and some clothes for her and her niece.

Had a nice cool beer and muruku last night before bedtime.

Then just before bedtime, i laughed till my tummy ached just looking at how she exercised. She totally lacked the coordination.

It was fun laughing like this again.

Hahaha!

Dinner

I am eager to go back and have a home cooked dinner today.

Most probably it will be fish, maybe steamed fish, I think. Vege and rice too.

My dear wife will cook of course.
