3 day weekend, snooze or...?

Aug 27, '07 11:18 PM for everyone

August 2007 had meant two 3-day weekends...one on August 20 and another on August 27. And what did I do on those exciting long weekends?

Well....*taps chin thoughtfully*...aside from watching "Ratatouille", and doing the routine grocery-shopping (am on a bagel diet these days because as Chiara would say I got infected with tamaditis) and the weekend chores - and the unavoidable tv-watching and internet-surfing (at least on my first 3 day weekend)...well...nothing else except trying to erase my eyebags by catching up on more sleep.

True, I suffered from a pesky migraine starting Saturday morning last week (probably brought about by too by too much drinking of hot choco since Thursday)...but I admit, quite shamefacedly, that I only managed to rouse myself on August 27 to go out. I kept getting held back by Skycable!

There was an old movie of Sly Stallone (Escape to Victory in Cinemax), Midsommer Murders (on Hallmark), two Star Trek movies (I love Star Trek), CSI Las Vegas, The Da Vinci Code, and then a drama about a father and his estranged daughter (quite a long title so I forgot)..and so on and so forth.
...but weirdly, no anime...because my fave supplier in Glorietta for this is not there anymore. Oh dear, and they still owe me replacements for defective disks (Evangelion movie and a couple of Card Captor Sakura as well as GetBackers). The last series I bought from them was "Flame of Recca"...and ..its being shown on Animax..but as usual...in corny English dialogue. Bleargh!

I forgot that I was supposed to exchange a defective USB mouse, and that I had only 1 chicken egg in my ref. I just went out with no goal in mind. I just happily rambled about the household sale in Landmark...and the main thing which caught my eye is the item below. *sigh*

My shopping gene is dormant these days...but I found the wind chime amusing and conveniently forgot that I am not supposed to put holes or hooks (unless they be temporary ones) on my walls or ceiling. I finally found another use for the water sprinkler spout. Hopefully the fish chime would not be drenched ....ever!


And then! And then I find when I finally checked on Multiply tonight...that it would have been a great treat to just transport myself to Tagaytay and tuck myself in the corner of Sir B's and Ms. G's home...and eat pork binagoongan or whatever was on their table. *sighs again* ah well....next time!
