We’re returning to Atlantic City for a long weekend. Jim, Cindy, Di, Ken and Rob will be joining Chris and me. The last time C and I were there was during our first honeymoon three months ago. ...
I just remembered that my brother is finally graduating from college next month. NEXT. MONTH. Wow. I feel a little weird because I still think of Jiko as the little boy who loved his Ate so much that...
I’m dealing with a lot of bullshit right now. It’s not my marriage, it’s a lot of external factors that manage to piss me off beyond belief. I will not specify what those things are...
So, Steffi… what happened? It’s been a busy two months. I flew 6,600 air miles to be with my fiance, Chris. Who is no longer a fiance. He’s now a husband who played fantasy football...
I’m working a little late here at work since I have a ton of things to finish before I go. It’s my last working day since I will be starting my four-month leave tomorrow. I know that I wi...
Make a list of necessities to pack. Limit things to 23 kg (check-in luggage), 7 kg (hand carry), 20 kg (air cargo). Basic meds and hygiene stuff, documents, jacket & a few clothes, electronics (h...
What is up with fantasy book covers with badly-drawn art, tacky calligraphy, and horrible color coordination? Don’t get me wrong, I love fantasy and I’m reading Codex Alera (by Jim Butc...
Another wise peice of advice from our favorite Auntie Janey: Auntie Janey’s Old Fashioned Agony Column #35: The Husband of Your Close Friend When I first read this, I thought about how stupid the le...
Part I. The Love Triangle I am not a big fan of love triangles where indecision drags on and on. For instance, the Edward/Bella/Jacob angle in Twilight freaks me out and made Bella look like a witch ...
XVII (I do not love you) I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz, or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off. I love you as certain dark things are to be loved, in secret, between th...
I haven’t written here for weeks and the first thing I could say is: “Shit.” Let’s just say that something terribly annoying (frustrating? upsetting? irritating?) has happened...
It started with tattoos. C told me about his family’s fascination with tattoos. He then asked me what kind of tattoo I wanted and I replied that it would be a quote: “I’m an adventu...
Two words: Angry Birds I’ve never seen more bad-tempered or cuter tiny birds than these. And those uppity green pigs can be so annoying. So addictive!
Let me start this post by saying that I am completely, hopelessly in love with my BlackBerry. I initially wanted the new Bold 9900 which, though it was designed in the traditional BlackBerry style, h...
I need a quick snack at work whenever I feel hungry between meals. Sometimes, these little dishes serve as two snacks which would equal one lunch meal — very handy when I don’t have time ...

I hope our plan would work out. I know that God has a plan for us, but he also helps those who help themselves. He already changed our former plans in a major way overnight. It happened so suddenly t...
Conversation by Paul Gauguin Be a good listener. A person who approaches you to unload needs a sounding board. Perhaps he/she is frustrated about something and badly needs someone to talk to. Be pati...
When I am grown to man’s estate I shall be very proud and great, And tell the other girls and boys Not to meddle with my toys. ~ Robert Louis Stevenson
There is a third party. And it’s called a cigarette. I think he thinks that his smoking is more important than the prospect of me walking out because of frustration. That does wonders to my sel...
I am bothered. And it’s no longer a silly thing like the time I was incredibly annoyed with this stranger who passed by everyday to take some of the gourmet coffee I brew for myself and a few f...

Rest in peace, Ate Mabeth. You won’t be forgotten.
As a Muslim, I’m sick of people asking me how I feel about 9/11. What do you want me to say, seriously? Do you want me to say, “It was a great plan, mwahahaha!” before I fly off on a magic carpet? &n...
Jessica Zafra is nice enough to let Auntie Janey use her blog for his old-fashioned agony column. The crotchety “Janey” is a mysterious male who gives wise advice to the suffering masses....
A few months ago, I was alone and unhappy. Now I’m alone, and I’m in good company. ~ Tricia‘s friend, M
This post by Mina made me tear up. While I can’t imagine going to the extent of committing joint suicide, I understand the reasons behind it. You’ve just turned 82. You are still beautiful, gra...
The thing about having blogs, especially ones that span years like mine, is that we tend to record everything in startling multicolored words that would stay in cyberspace forever. At the time of wri...
I am incredibly, utterly confused. More so now because I’m not just thinking of myself but I have to consider Chris as well. And our future, our finances, our health, and our dogs. We are faced...
