Errrgghh...

Two and a half hours later, I emerge from the conference room. That's how long the personal evaluation took. I am amazed that my boss could do this with everyone else in the office and not look completely wiped out. It was absolutely draining. These are like, one on one evaluations that are taking hours each.

But I got my raise and all is well with the world today.

On a more bitter note, I have had my 8th taste of bittergourd and I'm actually starting to like the stuff. But then again, if everything else is tasteless (yong tau foo with mostly tau foo and clear soup), the bittergourd is like a little resuscitator for my taste buds, just to prove they're not numb. So we'll see. Still 3 more times to go before I'm supposed to like it.

We had the little IJ reunion at my house yesterday - very little - just Stace, Lynda and I, spouses and children. Made beef spaghetti stragonoff, Stace brought Lychee Martini ice cream from The Daily Scoop and Lynda brought Royce chocolate. The best thing about being the host is you get to keep all the leftover food and dessert :)

In all, it was a nice weekend but now my back aches from carrying The Son everywhere.

Yeah, it just wasn't the same without you. Also no G to destroy stuff so the house was pretty much intact after they left, hee hee hee.

No pics - my flash card was full.

Can you upload K's vid on your blog properly so we can just go there?

golly, you guys just gave me a preview of Life Yet To Be.

sounds like fun. i wonder who'll be the first of my girls to have a baby. pretty sure it won't be me!

Believe me you need to enjoy the conversation while you still can.

Because after she has a baby, trying to have a conversation with her will be like me playing tennis with Martina Hingis. Someone will start the conversation (serve!), maybe someone will respond (return!) and then The Baby will do something cute/ gross/ loud and the conversation topic will either stop cold or switch to The Baby (point!).

Now when I meet up with The Gang, we just talk about the kids, talk to the kids, scold the kids, run off after the kids, ... hhhergh..
