Yummy chicken sandwich
This is crazy! Last night, I had to delay leaving for work because it rained non-stop and the creek overflowed leaving the street out front flooded. I wasn’t happy about having to trod through two-inch thick (and yucky smelling) mud at two in the morning when the water subsided just so I could go to work. We cancelled what would have been our impromptu team building activity (supposedly at a private pool) because we thought it’d still be raining today. But guess what? The sun was up, and it’s been super HOT all day! Crazy!
Don’t get me wrong, I am happy that the storm has left Philippine territory because it has done too much damage and took one life too many. But the weather’s been too unpredictable you don’t know whether to accept that summer’s gone by and we have had no vacation to speak of, or if there’s still enough summer left to make quick plans. Ugh.
Oh and one more. Because it was hot and the sun was up this morning, the mud from last night has dried and is even more foul smelling than when it was wet. Waaah! Where are the local officials when you really need them? Hello, clean up brigade please?

While I was at work today, I was surprised to see the mother from the reality show Jon and Kate Plus Eight on the headlines at the MSN homepage. Apparently, a tabloid released a story about Jon cheating on Kate. Jon denies it, and the girl that he was rumored to have been playing hooky with also denies the allegations made by her brother. It’s sad that they’re in the middle of such a controversy. I enjoy watching the show because I love kids – but I can never imagine myself having that many kids, all at the same time!

I shared lunch with Ingrid today at The Loop (hi Ingrid! :)) It was the busiest I’d seen The Loop so far – we had to settle for the bar-like areas because there were no more tables left. I also noticed for the first time that what used to be Figaro was already boarded up. I hadn’t been buying from Country Style for awhile, but I used to buy salad for lunch there a lot when I was still in the midshift (just this time last year – a loooooong time ago). I finally was able to have their Traditional Chicken Sandwich!

Tomorrow I’m attending a basic digital photography class, and Jo will be joining that too! Yay! We get to explore our D60s together! (I’m excited, can you tell? 🙂 )
