its counting to...

kama's coming back to singy AND of course my birthday wooooooooooooooooooooHOOOOOOOOOO!! he didn't sound so good today because of the runs he got from some flying virus. or maybe its the thought of coming back to the mundane. holidays do that to you. its 3 more days and i'm expecting a lot of cuddling to happen over the weekend PLUS we're making confirmations for the trip to shadow land. where i'm promised naughty bits like skinny dipping hehehe... >)

i bought a small pocket emoley monthly journal PLUS an A5 blank emoley.J to accompany thoughts into 2011. the trip to kinokuniya and walking parts of orchard that day was therapeutic. by 130pm i was in a taxi to far east plaza and stopped over at far east plaza to have wantan mee at puncak. quite dissapointing but its one of those old time hang outs that i just had to drop by. in black and heels, my bag carrying from majapahit to putrajaya AND the spirit of wood *slapforehead* to keep kama close i ALMOST broke my heels not to mention my back. i made calls to reserve my emoleys beforehand and it was nice to know they kept good stockpiles of moleskines there. yes! i am for the snob appeal, designed in italy but made in china *prrrft* heart fell a bit there but its a signature i want to keep.

in addition to my emoleys, i bought another book on the tarot by rachel pollack (who knew she was a transsexual?!!), a new deck of tarot cards in art noveau style and last but not least for jokey fun, i added 'Heidegger and a Hippo Walk Through Those Pearly Gates' by Thomas Cathcart & Daniel Klein. it was the eve of new year, i was missing kama (and eberyone in between) and i thought how better to ruminate; explore life, death and the afterlife by using old fogey jokes. it rained a bit and it was hard to find a corner to smoke. my feet were SCREAMING murder!!! and i needed to pee so i took the underground to wheelock reminding myself NO BORDERS en route before i stopped at a very crowded rubi store (they sell cheap shoes) and grabbed a pair of bling-bling sandals to wear. it was ANY excuse to get out of my heels so i braved the queue and waited in line to pay for my 5 dollar find ONLY to be asked for 15 dollars! *(&#@@&*$^@*&$@*()

i didn't fret too much and got her to cut the strings and wore them there and then. got to pee at wheelock which was tahnkfully not crowded and slap-slap my feet lazily in search of coffee and smokes. not many spots have smoking tables now :( but i spotted TCC across pacific plaza to have an outdoor seating area. and luck has it! it was "an irish coffee PLUHLEASEEEEEEEEEEEE" the minute i sat down and rubbed my soles. as a matter of habit, i went thorugh my purchases and unwrapped them, kama updated me on his jaunts up udaipur's temples and we promised to do the countdown later that night.

the taxi driver i got on the way back was a very funny guy and we laughed all the way back. he was happy to stay away of town. anyway, most celebrations are now neatly planned in the heartlands so i'm sure it'd be evenly spread. at home, i plunked everything and got comfy and SLEEPY. kama as promised was on the line to wish me a happy new year. m fire puja remained as a to do and did but i couldn't burn everything in the toilet. i heard the fireworks go off at causeway point! yeaps, we have that much budget hor~ and then dozed off..i did set the alarm for kama's countdown and he beeped affirmative to 'burning the past and regrets with his own fire ritual' and prayed for US. he taped the fireworks for me and rambled about the small gifts he got for the terrors.

i did ponder and wonder to biks why we as muslims don't feel so much during muharram and somehow it all falls redundant by then. you feel what you feel and you take very opportunity to say thanks in any manner (anytime) to say thanks. give blessings. but!! i digress. on a lighter note, i woke up and it was 1st january :)

good tidings to ALL and may the new year reap what we each sow. nurture and put loving thoughts to.

stay sane,
j.amyemeelea

ps: all i want for my birthday is.....................MEOWRRRRRRRRRR~ >)
