Disruptive rain

Dammit. I didn’t manage to bring Minibean to blade and play mahjong today because of the sudden downpour.

It would have been cool to be blading and pushing her stroller at the same time since my blades are of matching colours(“Check out my matching blades!”).

I was out shopping with the little lass at Takashimaya, when I was going to make my way to East Coast with my blades and stuff when I emerged from the building to see the city veiled with heavy rain.

Pretty happy I did my laundry last night and I brought them in before I left home.

So we ended up meeting at the ever familiar Tanjong Pagar area, and overlooked the city view for good half of the evening.

A quick dinner… and a mahjong session impending. Hopped on a cab just when it started to drizzle again.

Alas, I was too cosy in bed with the little one, and feeling just too lazy to head out when her bed time is just round the corner.

The guy from the dinner last night messaged me and asked me out for coffee. Couldn’t be for business since we are of the same trade, and I am impossibly skeptical about his intentions. Why? Want to fish information to furnish those old bitches?

If it is something else, don’t even bother. Now I understand why those old colleagues used to warn me so much about him. Sorry darling, I ain’t who I was 3 years ago, so don’t think I didn’t see through that.

But it was freaky funny when Minibean accidentally dialed someone’s number… someone I had snogged before, and the person called me back.

Like the guy who had called me earlier, I didn’t answer the call.

And they share the same name.

And then… out of nowhere, CBB messaged me this afternoon.

I mean, really, when was the last time he bothered to? And what can he be up to, really?

And uhm, he shares the same name as the other 2 before him. And they are the only people who had contacted me on the phone today.

Oh.

Did I mention the Hollywood recording guy is coming to Singapore again tomorrow?

And uh, he contacted me via email to meet up for drinks.

A shame that I won’t be around tomorrow.

No prize for guessing what his name is though..

Baby oil

Hmmm, does injesting baby oil make a person fat?

I didn’t like some of the people I met at the dinner last night but I knew my Dad’s reason for asking me to bring baby along for it.

Which is damn good.

Though some of those irritating lao hiao kaypoh aunties(some were genuinely nice, but some were there just for the drama you know?) were like flocking to her to find gossip fodders.

Anyway, the surprise of the evening was….

I saw a familiar face.

A face that once hit on me 3 years ago when I worked in his company. I still see him around during event days. I even blogged about it and how cute his daughter was when I carried her in my arms at a Christmas party.

Woohoo his daughter now 3 yrs already.

And he is now my dad’s mahjong kaki.

And then he was cornered by those irritating bitches who just kept asking him about how he knew me and you know, the goss.

Tsk tsk.
