workin' the weekend

i start early. wednesday to be exact.

poochers called for a kfc dinner and a san fran session the other night. gory, juicy details abound. of new couples, friends with benefits, exes and a courtship that refuses to end. even if it has to.

i decided to go *poof* yesterday. whereabouts unknown to home and office. there you go. nalula sa books, among other things. karl gave me one for christmas too. i think i'll start it tomorrow. had a really sweet message scribbled inside. that's why i love getting books for gifts. though i don't do that when i give them away because i don't really know what's a nice message to read after a long time. anyway, i tired myself out too much that though i dropped dead at 10 PM last night, i could barely keep myself awake today. i even had to buy coffee from mcdonald's so as not to shame myself by drooling on my desk. now my tummy's all sour. a nice lady from our sister company bought all of us lunch. i had to give my lunch away. yipee, good deed!

as always, i'm blogstalking my friends, and i heard zarah's back in town. wheee!!! zarah, we should party!!! i miss her punch and may's coma splice! ooohh, the wonders of royal true orange, vodka, juice, apples, and what-have-you. i don't even know how to make it. it's probably spiked twice, because you spike the punch first and then you use it to make coma splice with more liquor. hehehe.. wonder why i never got tipsy then? hehehe! let's party, camown! holy girls! (i don't even know when to give you guys my present!) well, we're supposed to have a party tomorrow at ala's but i'd rather do leo's party. we're doing the hiphop thang. i'm going to be kind of eve-ish. aissa's alicia keys. or maybe mary j. blige. baby... well, i'm not sure. maybe eve as well. or kelis. mark's going to be usher. leo's going to be... uhh.. the birthday boy. kaso wala sa aming egoy. hehehehe.. oh, and sleepover? maybe. my nephew's getting baptized the following day and i'll be a godmother. his name is karl too. or carl. whatever. i'll figure it out on sunday.

what else did i hear? ia's been singing at parties, and i swear she should sing more!!! she does it sooo well and i'd love to hear "do you sleep" more often. chely and deng are at the salon today and chel's getting purple highlights. i want!!!! or well, maybe a perm. i don't know. i'm kind of chicken and i keep on listening to other people. people who are kind of safe with hair. i haven't done anything outrageous in my lifetime with my hair. anyway, let's see. (yet again.)

i'm listening to this new orleans sampler and i resolve to get one. at first i wasn't really digging it, but it's getting to jazzier, swingier stuff. and you should know that i love swing jazz! i told karl i always wanted to learn how to swing (30's swing ha! not the typical modern ballroom crap or the perverse kind!) but i don't think he's up for that for the "5 unusual dates" article he's writing for fudge. ooohhhh fun! i swear. well, the metro trip is going to be one of them, plus of course, separate food trips (ghazal, taco bell, chateau verde are some). i wonder what else we'll end up doing!

tonight i'm meeting karl's friend bingbing. finally! curious, curious. free-spirited ex-nun. and me, quite the shs nuns' well-behaved nightmare. i think we shall hit it off.

i'm looking forward to suicidal starbucks night on the 23rd! 24 and 27 have been declared as holidays so after work, i'm free on 23! pampalubag-loob nalang ng president siguro after all these deaths - the typhoon floods, the (da) king's stroke, the fire at de venecia's home. sad, sad christmas for some. good deeds must abound. we're now officially too lazy to hold a garage sale of our bad investments (read: bad, expensive but still wearable clothes) so we just gave them all away to charity. ahh yes. feels good.

i must distribute gifts soon. must. must.
