i've done it again

MyCuteGraphics.com - Cute Glitter Graphics

Some years back, when i was in sunny California, i slept in the "wrong" position one night. No idea what constitutes "wrong" cos i definitely slept soundly all through the night. But i woke up with this excruciating pain in the area around my left shoulder blade. it was so bad, i could barely get out of bed, roll over or bend over. i couldn't even laugh, cos it would hurt so much just to twitch. The pain lasted for a full 5 days before it went away.

Yesterday i woke up with the same feeling of dejavu. i thought to myself "omg! i have done it! AGAIN!!" i got out of bed after whining for a full 10mins, while hao-e tried to help me massage the area. that was useless of course cos he'd drop off to sleep after a few seconds and i would have to wake him up again. little did i imagine, i couldn't drive. i was in the driver's seat starting up the car, good, not much pain. as i stepped on the accelerator and went up the driveway, i could feel tears welling up. pain pain pain.... just couldn't do it. stayed home instead.

it's not much better today. so i'm gonna stay home somemore. i could be home the whole week... what a waste. a friend called up concerned when she found out i was in pain, her solution was to go to the Emergency Dept to get an x-ray (!). but i figured it's only muscle ache, so i'll just stay home with bengay today and hope that the pain subsides very soon.

Happy Easter!

Busy Easter weekend! Got my screening report from the doctors on Thursday, I have to cut down on sugars, oily food and carbs.... uhoh, nothing about the lumps so i'm grateful. Marc Jacobs bag arrived in the evening, woohoo!   Good Friday was spent in Church and shopping at Sim Lim Square for Hao-e's new PC. Pilates on Saturday morning after a week's break, super out of shape.  think i should probably start doing some exercises at home and maybe go for swim downstairs when i get a chance. Chewy had a good scrubbing session at noon then off to watch Le Noir at Sands Theatre on Saturday afternoon, fun! Cousin-in-law's wedding dinner at Conrad on Saturday evening, no shark's fin which was a bummer. Easter mass on Sunday morning followed by Qingming thingamie at Mt Vernon. Sunday brunch at York Hotel's Penang Hawker Buffet, yum! Watched 1.5 movies too - GI Joe (meh) and SVFV (vulgar).  SVFV was the movie that  was banned and made the h...

Forgive and Forget

it's been a long time since i've written anything of a serious nature. i try to keep this blog lighthearted but some things have been bugging me lately and i need to ventilate and detox myself. so please bear with me as i spurt and sputter some bad blood. one, because of man A's negligence, my start date has been delayed till further notice. was rather upset about it, not because i was looking forward to what i thought i was about to do, but because once again, my plans have been thwarted by things and people beyond my control. i should have been able to start in july had hao-e's permanent work permit been granted right after his first temporary work permit lapsed. BUT, it didn't happen that way cos hao-e had to settle for a second temporary work permit as they tried to sort out his permanent one. now, with this delay, i'm not sure when i can begin contributing to the "save stella" fund. [C was really cute today as i told her the amount that i ...

dinner at swizzle inn

last night we had a most scrumptious bbq dinner at the original swizzle inn . much much much better than the dinner we had some days back with O and K at the branch in warwick. woo.... i had the char-grilled prime rib and the much famed rum swizzle, while hao-e had the margarita shrimp and strawberry daiquiri. blogging about it brings back nice memories. heh. Oh! C and i found some fresh watercress at the marketplace yesterday. so today's lunch we had watercress soup. i've been yearning for some light clear vegetable soup for some time... especially after a discussion with HL about the lack of vege variety here, and how she spotted kailan on the island! KAILAN !!! how did they manage to get their hands on kailan ?! i was joking with HL that one of the chefs must have secretly brought over some seeds and planted some in his back garden. or else why doesn't kailan appear in the vege aisle of the marketplace as well?! oh, and i bought some canned longan, jackfrui...
