Major Fail

Major Fail.

Today, we got up at 3pm, because we slept at 7am in the morning. Night before went and had lovely dinner at Michelangelo's in Solaris with Evelayn. She brought me out for a mini-birthday dinner since I didn't do much for mine last Saturday. Thanks a bunch! We'll wait for AndrewGuevara to come back and then we'll go for Sunday brunch at Bakita ok?

So yeah, got up and mooched around a bit and suddenly, at 5pm, IanPenguin goes, "OK, we're having my aunts and uncles around for dinner, roughly 10pax."

*FREAKOUT*

(due to no groceries at home as well as, worrying about what to cook)

Then, as the night went by, 10pax became 17pax and stress became pressure, due to the rice cooker acting up and refusing to cook my nasi lemak. Thank goodness for bread from my survey/experiment, and IanPenguin's Mom cooking sambal sotong as well as UncleDavidBaloo making his famous mutton-bone curry. Yums.

So yeah, 2 crates of beer, Southern Comfort, Whisky and few tequila shots later, everything was mighty fine. (I hope, guests-view). Ended the night with a few rounds of Gin Rummy. I must say, it is as addictive as Chor Dai Dee. :D

Tomorrow, let's hope for a good,relaxing day in, so I can sift through the remainder of my surveys and start doing some work. But honestly, all I can think of is shopping in quaint boutiques in Bangsar and my very empty bank account. Oxymoronic, I know.

All in all, this holiday's proving to be even more hectic than I expected.

*shrugs* Oh well, here's to beers and family and holiday time...

Cheers people!

And remember to drive safe and drink responsibly.

Mucho Amore
