A Mind Numbing Day ...

Gosh, how time flies when you're having fun! That saying sure holds true for when you're on holiday. The day just flew by so fast that I hardly know what happen. That could also be because I sat here and blogged practically the whole first half of the day, then took a 3 hour nap and only just woke up. And I'm not in such a great mood right now cos I'm still groggy but the pull of my blog was just too strong. Evil thing really this blog. It owns three quarters of my soul already.

Besides the fact that I'm still groggy and the day just flew by without even me knowing, it was a pretty good holiday. My day started pretty early with the kids making a ruckus and waking both wifey and me up so damn early in the morning. Both of us slept real late last night cos we were both playing those games I downloaded. We actually wanted to sleep in a little bit today but that was not to be the case with the boys.

We planned to go out and look for dogs today but instead ended up blogging cos I had a hordes of assignments to complete so we stayed in and I scrambled to finish all of it with me actually doing 5 posts in my spaceman blog! I could hardly use my brain anymore after finishing all those assignments ... LOL! By the time we finished, it was time for lunch and the boys were already hounding us to take them for lunch.

So, I reluctantly stopped my blogging though I still had tons of assignments yet to complete and took the boys for lunch cos they were on the verge of rioting already! The weather out there was so goddamned hot that the moment I got home, I headed straight to bed to take a short nap which turned out to be a long one which is always the case with me. So, with that, half my holiday just vanished with me doing absolutely nothing constructive at all.

Oh, I mentioned above that we were supposed to go and look at some dogs, right? Well, we're in the midst of searching for a dog. Ever since we saw that dog show a couple of months back, we've been wanting to get one. We're not sure of the model, urrmmm, breed that we're looking for just yet though I'd like one of those huge ones, maybe something along the sleek cool lines of a St. Bernard or the likes of a Great Dane. I'm not into those sissy looking dogs like the Shih Tzu or the equally wussy Poodle!

I hope that when we finally get one, we'll be able to take care of it cos these dogs are pretty high maintenance. I mean we already have two hyperactive boys and adding a dog on our list of things to take care of might be a little daunting. But I won't know if I don't try right? I used to own a dog in my younger days but as I grew older I kinda gave up on them cos I no longer had the time to look after them. I still remember my first dog, I have no idea what breed it was, I think I was about 2 years old or so then. I could remember sitting on him and riding him like a horse. Then one day the fellow upped and ran away. Probably got fed up of being treated like a horse by me ... LOL! For the life of me I can't really remember his name. I think it was Benji but I'm not so sure, hey I was only 2 years old, k?

My second dog was called Tinker and he was this jet black mixed breed of a dog which again I have no idea what since I was about 4 years old at that time. I remember Tinker so vividly cos the first week I had him a puppy, the bum bit my nose and I had to get a damn jab on my butt cos of him! Unfortunately Tinker was run over by a bus one day and I remember crying my eyes out. That was the last dog I had until about 7 years old when my uncle rescued this mongrel from the road side and me and my cousins took turns looking after him. We named him Ringo and he was such a playful fellow. Sometimes just a wee bit too playful. He stayed with us for quite some years until he died of old age one fine day. We were all kinda sad and we held a funeral service for him in the backyard.

That was about the last time I owned any dog and I'm quite skeptical about my abilities to take care of one these days. But wifey and me are so set on wanting to own a dog that we'll share the responsibilities when we eventually do get one. I must make it a point this weekend to go out and look for one. I was supposed to get one before the end of January and now it's going on to February soon and I'm nowhere near to shortlisting any just yet! Oh boy, will you look at the time, it's almost time for American Idol and I haven't even had a shower yet. I guess the shower will have to wait till after the show ... LOL! I've also still got to finish this assignment on Gamefly coupons . I wonder if it's a site for me to download more games ... LOL! Looks like it's going to be another late night again today. Catch you all later folks.
