dadda: cant believe you are letting us down like that

dadda: tsk

cat: …I need more time…

dadda: boo is your priority in life dont get confused

cat: ………

… she leaps of the sides now.
Once I heard she swam ten widths.
And last weekend, she was in the 1.4metres deep wave pool.

dadda: she’s such a pain
dadda: bloody independent
me: have her wear a tracking device
dadda: great big waves crashing on her, and she’s like, daddy dont touch me I want to do this on my own..
me: LOL
dadda: let me do it, let me do it

*send a knock*

dadda: hehehehe she just said, daddy someone’s at the door

*send a bow*

dadda: is it athea, she said

Gawd, how I love her!!!

Saw Steam boy today… quite a superb show…….
ended up at church …. quite not my plan to do so…so sat outside scribbling notes… but at same time overheard the visiting priests sermon… something along the lines of…

“Go forth!…Live life with passion!… share your lives with your fellow community members! You can enjoy life unto the fullest…as long as you listen to what God says!”

I can just imagine how many different interpretations can come from that last line alone.

Certain events today remind me of my age right now…… I think, ultimately … I am too old, too lazy maybe… and hv lived too long in this skin…to want to be somebody else. A case of stubborness and bad attitude too? Guess it comes with the age.

26th December, 2006

Few days ago, dadda had expressed a concern…
dadda: boo has way too many pressies again…
dadda: think we’re gonna have to stagger it…
cat: pre-xmas, xmas and post x’mas pressies?
dadda: yea, i reckon so
dadda: else she wont appreciate them

Wat a sensible dadda.

Earlier today…
cat: what’s her fave toy?
dadda: god she has too many…
dadda: but she was soo good
cat: oh really?
dadda: she unwrapped each one then played with it then open the next..etc

Dadda reckons also her fave is really the baby. She has her own baby now…with its own potty and all..

GOD WHAT A SIGHT THAT MUST BE!!!!

cat: pssst…. hey…..
*He looks at me*
cat: come over here…..*gesturing at computer monitor*…. look at this….
*He walks over. He sees. He makes a detour without missing a beat. He walks away. He also mumbles…“I oredi sick, dont make me sicker.”

Baby cuteness overload? Maybe. Maybe not. She’s already two for goodness’ sake!
The other day was having convo with dadda
me: Her eyes are so big. Do you think they’ll get smaller?
dadda: I hope so
me: Why?
dadda: She catches too damn much attention…..

Boo also waves, gives cute smiles, says helloooooo in posh voice, will wipe her own nose, can eat with a fork and can count till 20 in public place without any prompting.

I want my baby back!!!!!!!!!!!

babyboo: Dadda keeps me booger-free!!!

Dadda’s have been having malfunctioning speakers for weeks already and tried to fix it to no avail… even i was stumped.

Update:
Today he came online with already routine question…
dadda: you fixed my speakers yet?
cat: let me talk to the Fairy of Speakers…

…. 10 mins later…

dadda: you fixed my speakers yet?
cat: im going away sunday and have to finish up stuff..
dadda: ………
dadda: if you loved boo youd fix my speakers
cat: ………
cat: maybe i love boo so much i dont have to fix your speakers today???
dadda: i’ll tell her
cat: oi
dadda: im phoning her now
cat: (grrrrrrr)

Dadda earlier shared that he and boo were shaking their booty this am… i have to devise fresh methods to get me hands on boo’s development video. By hook or by crook.

Time flies by pretty fast too…
Started to panic a little when i got another IM this morning.

“Hey, you have to be at airport at 10pm you know right? Dont be late ar”
“10 pm? Ok. The predeparture pack didnt properly say wat time there… I got it without any cover email,” said I.
Reply came, “You didnt even know what time to be at airport and you didnt ask ar??”
And it’s sad but i, “Forgot.”

Been somewhat occupied. Still in office, almost time to go but theres a nagging feeling that Ive forgotten something.

Packing Update: May have to take the heavy as heck notebook with me. You dont just pass up complimentary Wi-Fi service.
Im not packed. Im not even sure which luggage to bring. Clothes are just drying right now.
Damn… lecture at 2pm…..its hot and dry, and im sweating and sticky….its just NOT what i need!!

…this is a pic of Boo some time ago, before all her teeth came out, waaaaaay before she was walking, and when she was still staring at webcam instead of poking it with her nose.

I love it..her expression is priceless.
