Sep 22nd, 2008 Better Than Counting Sheep…
It is now 3.11am and about an hour since I got up to pee… As usual I stopped by my computer to check on something and noticed a notification that some kind soul had sent me his second donation in the last 30 days. After checking on a few things I promptly returned to bed and tried to go back to sleep… and tried….and tried… but it seems like my brain just won’t shut off again as it began to wander and plan for the coming week. So here I am sitting here in front of the laptop at 3.15am writing this post about what I am thinking. I thought that if I were to write it down at least I will remember most of it in the morning! I am sure that I am going to regret this by 2pm after lunch tommorow because I’ll be dozing off just as I’ll need to begin work…
I was thinking of a couple of things … in no particular order…
- That I still have not found a talking Ernie or Cookie Monster for Aaron as I was planning to suprise him with a talking Sesame Street (almost typed sesame seed!) character for his second birthday coming up in less than 2 weeks.
- I was also thinking of where we would dine on my birthday, I’ve been compiling a list of places in my mind over the last week. The options are Italianies, Teluk Gong Seafood (in Sunway), Alegro or Rakuzen. I’ve narrowed it down to either Alegro or Rakuzen but it seems like we’ll probably end up in Alegro since I love Italian food so much. Give me a nice Spaghetti Bolognaise and you’ll make my day!! I’ve been crazy in love with Spaghetti Bolognaise ever since I had my first one over 13 years ago in SeaCafe by Lake Lucerne in a small town called Weggis, Switzerland.
- I was also thinking that the guy is pretty nice to have sent me another 3 quid since he had just sent me 3 quid less than a month ago… if only all my ‘customers’ were like him, I’d be laughing all the way to … Paypal right now!
- A friend who works at Sunway Lagoon has invited us to Sunway Lagoon this weekend, so I was thinking that I should get a pack of swimming diapers for Aaron..er..TMI?
- We were in Sunway Pyramid earlier today and I lined up at J. Co for a good 15 mins just to get 1/2 a dozen of donuts and an Ice Lemon Tea. I paid RM20 for it and the donuts were in the box for less than 5 mins… and the darn Ice Lemon Tea is probably the cause of my apparent lack of wanting sleep at the moment!
- Oh yes, I was also thinking of the yummy Bak Kut Teh that we ate for dinner. Yum Yum Yum that’s all I can say.
- I signed up for a Nuffnang account today and wonder when I’ll get my first assignment. By the way Nuffnang is a ad publication network and they provide PPP(payperpost) opportunities, something like Pay Per Post but this one is based in Malaysia.
- I was also reminding myself that I should call a friend of mine to inform her that we will be making a Hari Raya visit to her house next week on day 1 of Raya. Oooh.. just can’t wait to taste the delicious Chicken Rendang with dark soya dish that they make every year.
I’ve just realised that my entire conversation with myself has been about FOOD or related to food. LOL…what else does a person think about at this time of the morning? (3.44am now)
I’ve been reading a lot of other blogs of late and realised that a lot people who blog are so full of themselves (which would technically include me into the equation!) No offence to some of my friends who write lovely blogs – those that I routinely read – BUT some of these blogs that I’ve been reading lately are really really self indulgent. There is usually an About Me page and they go on and on about themselves…
This has brought me to the conclusion that I am going to write a Me, Myself and I post, that will be linked to my very short About Me page that currently looks like it is lacking character!
3.52am and almost 2 hours wide awake…I think it is time to say Good Night !
