Tizzy

Am in a tizzy. I have exactly six days (to the very hour :D) before our house guests/ house sitters arrive (hello there you two :P), and I have set myself the goal of putting everything in order before they arrive (to the very minute).

The bed is in a mysterious state somewhere. With this furniture maker, there’s no way to know if he’s actually putting in the last nail or still growing tree seedlings. The “ventilation” is going to be delivered tomorrow. Actually, there’s cement dust and my files all over the room they’re going to be sleeping in.

Still, even without the mattress that I hope to find and order on Tuesday, the sheets are ready. Roommie “stole” one of the pillows for them so we’re still awaiting those.

Elsewhere, not so important but also in the works are curtains, a center table, and knives. Haha. As a friend once joked at the mall, “Pasensiya na po. Bagong kasal.” Setting up house sure is hard work. Difficult but right up the coordinating Capricorns’ alley. (Other examples of Capricorn coordination are flight schedules and trips hahaha.)

Actually, all of the above is only 4/6 of the story but going into all the details at this point in the nation’s life, is just crass. (But true nevertheless.)

MORE HAHAHA’s. I had the greatest time at sweetie godson Aemon’s belated birthday party last Saturday. Wait, belated birthday COSTUME party. That was one of those classic my-colleagues-are-so-cute-and-funny episodes in life. I mean, isn’t a kids’ party where adults have fun before, during and after just the best? (Promise, I think Aemon had fun too :D). Some of the more cute endearing amusing and irreverent concepts, errr costumes (in no particular order):

1. B as person in a time of SARs
2. J as a lesbian (hahaha)
3. S as a DVD seller
4. M as one hot cowgirl-punk mama!!!! (my personal favorite for the no guts no glory factor)
5. William Wallace’s kin in magnificent kilt from Nova
6. his housemate Pocahontas, and
7. Wendy who never left Peter Pan’s side

So! Congratulations to that sashaying belly dancing mama, and the rustling by in a big robe tatay: parents of Peter Pan. HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Am glad to be with you in this lifetime :D

(PICTURES MIGHT BE POSTED HERE SOON.)
