Rest In Peace
You have about another 55 years to go.
Thank you very much. It was a piece of very good news to hear on a Sunday morning. Which means that I have 55 years worth of sundays to be constructive. So I do not have to start today. I can start in like 10 years time and make the best out of it. So when I am gone, I will be out as an immersely satisfied woman. Here lies A. She lived well. And she had ice-cream for breakfast. I may not be sitting in the lap of luxury but I have the seat next to it.
Sundays used to be the time for chinese tim sum but we don't these things anymore. Reason being that my sisters do not wake up before 1pm. Tim sum are all sold out by then. I like sundays. They have a lazy feeling to them. I love to do brunch at a cafe, chomping a huge cransberry chicken potato chicken and watch the world goes by. With or without company. Occasionally making a mental note not to dress like the lady at the next table or struggle whether to tell the gentleman a table away that he had some lettuce struck on his front teeth.
I love my sundays well-spent catching up friends that you hardly have the chance to even hear from them. Yesterday a best friend called. I am trying to make a baby. It takes up quite a huge chunk of my time. I should know shouldn't I? Making babies is not like a trip to the butchery. One baby, preferrably male, no need hair now but should be able to grow its own hair in the future. I hyperventilate on hearing her news. We are different league now. Perhaps soon she will be busy changing nappies on sundays and I might occasionally have a chance to carry and play with her son. I can't imagine the baby that I am holding is my best friend's son. No NO!
lovin each day.

what is tim sum. Is it as tasty as dim sum?
Cracker,
Tim sum is the same as dim sum, except that it is pronouced with Cantonese accent.
Simple American,
My mum would have you believed that it is a life-time of hell. Which sadly, might be true.
Hey, it doesn't stop just because they leave home, they just cease to be within any sort of control that you had, which makes it easier in some ways, harder in others.
Gee, I sound like I've experienced it when really I haven't. I can't even bear to get my son out of nappies for gods sake, for fear he'll jump up and say "ok Mum, thanks for everything, but I don't really need you anymore. I've got my potty and my nana, what else could there possibly be?"
