Right now, this day

we’ve been together fifteen years.

Sometimes, I laugh at my stupidity

Dome at Dempsey Hill – Andrew was trying to decide between the fish and chips and the lot burger when, knowing that he loves lamb, I suggested that he ordered the ’sea-red’ lamb.

I blame it on reading too much to the kid and pointing at the big words and breaking them up into syllables.

Two nights ago,

for the first time in seven months, we had some time alone. We left the kids at home with our domestic help and took a short drive down to Geylang for a quick dinner. That was close to 22 00. I could only leave with my mind at ease after the two kids were tucked into bed. It was not exactly the kind of romantic night out we, or at least I, would like to have on such rare occasions when we had a bit of alone time. Noisy. Humid. Greasy. Several tables with lone men having a late meal. Stall owners hounding us for our order. Durian sellers nearby hawking variants of the exotic fruit. But hey, I’d take it.

Speeeedy

I headed to Ngee Ann City this morning with the intention of getting a tie from Burberry’s for Andrew as a belated Fathers’ Day gift. After a mushroom bruschetta breakfast and a hazelnutte from Coffee Club, I just thought I’d pop into Hugo Boss to see if anything might catch my eye before going down to the aforesaid destination. Pretty nice ties. Inexpensive too, after the 40% discount. I didn’t want to dally too much, as the salesperson tailing me had a bit of the sniffles, and I’m really paranoid about germs in the air. So I picked one out within a couple of minutes.

I’m a pretty speedy shopper!
