The Fabulous Weekend

I walked into the office today and my colleagues asked me 'how was your weekend?.

I smiled from ear to ear and said 'It was FABULOUS!!!'
Well, it certainly was! Look what we did...

We hiked to the very top of a waterfalls on Saturday,

had a yummy dimsum breakfast on Sunday,

and for dinner, went on a romantic dinner date, just the two of us :)

These are happy days, these are!

A Flashback!

Recently, I went with Sham to the airport to send off his brother who was off to Europe for two weeks on business. His girlfriend had come with us.

It was sweet watching them bid each other goodbye. She was clinging on lovingly to his arm and he looked just so sad that he had to leave.

It reminded me of the time, almost 2 years ago, when Sham & I were still dating and he had to go to Europe for 2 weeks. Shortly after he'd flown off, I sent this email to Jeevan, the friend he was going to live with there for a few days, before work began.

Dearest Jeevan,

Hi there :-) How are you? We haven't met but I have a HUGE favour to ask...

As I write this, precious cargo is airborne and due to arrive at your doorstep in approximately 10 hours. It is well packaged (oh very well indeed) and attractive looking (in fact, is known to be quite a turn on), is sturdy and built well (built very well), mobile (so you needn't worry about lifting or carrying), and not fragile (except when in my arms and requiring some TLC).

Said cargo has been placed in my care the past few months and as a result is functioning pretty well, in fact I believe, has never been better.

But fate has decided that it be parted from me for 2 weeks.
A sad 2 weeks indeed, as said cargo is irreplaceable, and I desperately await its return!

Back to my favour.....


.... I hope it's not too much to ask


.... but if you don't mind


.... I would be so grateful


.... and ever indebted to you


.... if you could please


.... please


.... please


.... take good care


.... extremely good care


.... of my Baby... my li'l Shamu-sweetums!!!

OK?

Basically, just do whetever it takes so that he's always happy and smiling!

Boleh?

With gratitude
Melissa

Reading that brought back a flood of memories and made me laugh out loud!

Anyway, this was Jeevan's reply.

Dear Melissa,

My my, is this lurve or what?

Umm, I did pick up some cargo from Manchester airport, although I am unsure if it is that which you describe. The rather overweight cargo I picked up does not seem to match your description. Ah, well, love is blind, so I'm told..

Hmmm.... it normally costs a fortune in alcohol to keep this guy happy and smiling, but I shall see what I can do....

Hope to see you soon, insyallah!

Jeevan

LOL! :D

A 'Windy' Episode

Oh this is so humiliating but I suffered a HORRIBLE case of excess wind in my tummy Sunday night!

What a terrible way to end a wonderful weekend of family & friends & church & home cooked food & movies & exercise and everything good!

Thank God Shaman got home in time after his badminton. He found me writhing in pain on our bed and rushed me to the nearest clinic. What had started as pain in my tummy had eventually led to my chest area and for a while I actually thought I was having a heart attack! Oh the pain!

Anyway, the doctor prescribed some pills which I had to take right away and THANK HEAVENS, the pain began to subside on our drive home... phew!

It sure was awful while it lasted, though! And I'd NEVER gone through some thing like this before...

Sham got me something soupy to eat, gave me more meds to take and tucked me into bed.

You know how I know my husband loves me?
He still hugs me tight to sleep even when I'm... (please, please pardon the crudeness)..... farting the night away!

Siiiighh....

Blogger Down...

I've been sick the past 3 days.

What started as a throat infection, led to fever, a runny nose, headaches, sneezing bouts, a bad cough, diarrhoea...the works! I laid in bed for most of Monday and Tuesday, complete knocked out by Polaromine and cough lynctus.

Communication with Sham has been limited to 2-3 word text messages...

... head feels heavy

... still purging

... buy soup

... no more panadol

... body hurts

... so tired

... hug me please?

Can't wait to recover fully and get back to normal life!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, LAURA!!

And many happy returns of the day to you from both of us!

For those of you who didn't know, Laura, my sister, is the reason Sham & I met at all! She introduced us to each other and was instrumental in setting us up on that very fateful blind date.

Laura, thanks to you I've found the love of my life and now... there's two less lonely people in the world!

Here's wishing you sunny days and starry nights, happy days and lotsa smiles!

Cheers, sistah!
