Oh Goodness Me!!

Had a full and enjoyable weekend, for once.

Friday night was spent lazing at home. For once, any work was banned. That was sooo good...

Saturday was spent lazing around too, since i failed to get ANY tickets to watch Harry Potter. We took the day off since we failed to observe the Selangor state holiday on Monday. At night went to aunt's place in Selayang to say hello to Singapore cousin. As usual, we went into gales of laughter with our silly ideas. It started with "smart" clothes-lines that would retract when it starts to rain, to awnings that can be controlled remotely by phone. It evolved to the "laundry folding machine"which would have everything programmed. It would know how to fold different items of clothing like underwear and shirts. It will also recognise what belonged to whom, so perhaps the clothes will need to be bar-coded... It goes on and on, I almost died laughing! :-) Would have loved to stay over, but had to start early the next morning.

Sunday was MNS (the Malaysian Nature Society) jumble sale day. Nak tak nak, had to come and help out. Darn, I am so stepping down from the committee next year. Tak larat. Spent the day enticing people to sign up for the Annual Dinner. In between, talked to friends and looked for bargains. In true MNS (Makan Non-Stop) fashion, I ate all day, and yet the food sellers still complained they didn't make much. Will not list them down here, too malufying. In the end, went home with free ice-cream and lots of stuff. Ice-cream would be great at our annual Christmas party at Steven's.

Was happy I got quite a lot of bargains at the sale. I bought:-
- 6 National Geographic mags for RM5
- 2 Travel mags at RM1 each
- A Delinsky novel for RM3
- A set of UNO stacko for RM5
- Bath salts for RM5
- A pack of fossils for Ah Tshen at RM1
- Thermometer thrown in for free

Went back and took a nap. Cleaners never turned up, so went back to sleep. Woke up and went over to Loretta's for Chris' earliated birthday party. His b'day is on Tuesday and next week is already Christmas, so we celebrated a bit earlier la. Watched bits of Monty Python "The Meaning of Life" and then left. I have no idea where the time went, but it's now midnight. Sigh. Work again tomorrow.

Good night, guys. Have a great week ahead :-)
