Am not feeling too much better today, although the fresh air and panadol last night did do wonders...
Had tagged along with Eddie to watch the boys try out for the Singaporean soccer team for the ASEAN Cup. While the guys tried hard to impress the 'judges', the three of us WAGs sat on the side of the pitch and yakked about balls and *people* peeing in bushes and bullied Kaka and exchanged aunty stories hehe. I know you're reading this so thanks babes, u girlies make me happy! ^^

Let me tell you how TERRIBLE I am at planning surprises.
I saw this in Myer's Father's Day catalogue last night.
It was a fragrance that Eddie had loved and wanted for light years, but had never gotten around to buying it because he wants to use up his current one first
I was thinking "Eh, it's on offer for $99!"
Then I was thinking of how I could buy it for Eddie tomorrow before our lunch date and surprise him yadda yadda, before I suddenly realized I had actually spoken my "Eh, it's on offer for $99!" out aloud, because Eddie responded by saying "Yeah I know. I wanna get it. When does the offer end?"
Inside, I was kicking myself for blurting it out, because now if I bought it for him tomorrow it wouldn't be a suprise anymore, right? Cos he already knows I saw it in the catalogue.
While he was in the shower, I had a brilliant idea. I'll buy it on [ strawberrynet.com ]!! It'd be cheaper too. Boy will he be suprised when it arrives in the mail in a week or two!
Trembling with excitement, I went online and purchased it, clicking on "checkout" and printing the receipt the moment he stepped out of the bathroom. I was jittery with excitement, and I must have had the most ridiculously sheepish grin on my face, cos when he saw me he must have immediately known I was up to something. I felt like if I didn't show him what I was printing right then and there I would explode, so I did (show him what I was printing, not explode)
He was happy, of course :)
But geez, so much for wanting to surprise him.
It was like how I almost forced my sister to guess what her Christmas present was, and then just ending up telling her because I was more excited than she was, and couldn't wait for her to open it on Christmas!
Meh =.=

What am I gonna do today?
I've decided not to meet Eddie for our usual Thursday kebab date, because I've got leftover pasta in the fridge and I need to stop spending moolah.
I thought of going fishing at Shorncliffe because I'd love some sun and fresh air, and there wouldn't be a lot of people on the jetty now (cos I hate it when it's crowded and all the good spots are bagged and there are kids screaming and stamping around)... but I'm a little hesitant about going alone
Hmm. The thought of having fresh bream for dinner is very tempting though. Can try using my Switchblade. Or can use bread on tiny hooks. I wonder if I use multi-grain bread, would the bream know it's good for them cos its healthier than white bread?
