My Pot-Bellied Princess

Brian took Molly to the vet yesterday to be weighed. She is now a whopping two pounds and three ounces. That’s over a half pound more than when we first got her two weeks ago. She only weighted a pound and ten ounces then.

Anyway, she’s really playful now and she’s got lots of energy. She just needs to simmer down sometimes, though.

Dinner with Carla and Paul

Carla and Paul

Carla and Paul met us for dinner last at Red Lobster. That must’ve been the longest dinner ever! We were there from 6:00 pm to 9:30 pm, not counting the 25 minute wait.

Brian said he would bring me back there again on a Monday so I can have a true crab legs pig-out!

Brian’s Unhappy Face

DSC00873.jpg

We went to have dinner at this new resto downtown, The Bamboo House. The place is nice enough but the food is no good.

I got the sampler platter just to try out a variety of things. Brian said the egg roll was alright but not as good as lumpias. The beef was chewy. The chicken was bland. The tempura shrimp was doughy. The crab rangoon was really greasy. It was so greasy that when I split it in half a huge puddle of grease spilled out onto my plate and also the table. Read more

We Have More Minutes

As the saying goes, “If there’s a will, there’s a way.”  Last week Brian and I were stressing about cellphone overage charges and how we were going to make it through to the end of our bill cycle without having a $200 phone bill.  We were conserving our cellphone usage so bad you’d think we were rationing water while travelling through the Sahara.

It got so bad that we started acting like those people in those silly cellphone commercials. Brian would call me and I’d be like, “Why are you calling me?  You’re not calling me from your work phone are you?”  We have free mobile-to-mobile but if he calls me from his work phone or I call his work phone then it counts against us.

See, I thought those commercials were silly before because we’d never been in any danger of overage charges.  Now that we have, I completely understand how the people the commercials feel.  We literally could not use our phone because every single non-weekend, non-mobile-to-mobile minute was costing us.  To top it off I had duty at work on Monday.  I didn’t have any calls, though.  Thank the Lord!

Proof That Jen Eats

 

Proof That Jen Eats

Contrary to popular belief that Jen never eats, she actually does. This photo is proof of it. How she manages not to gain weight is the million dollar question.

Anyway, Brian and I decided to take Jen and Ray up on their brunch invitation despite our current broke financial state. You all know I can’t turn down Legends. Incidentally, Legends has all you can eat fajitas every Thursday so that would be a good day for you all to check them out. Sundays are great too because that’s when they have champagne brunch. Brunch isn’t brunch without mimosas!

But I digress. If we were broke before brunch, we are even more so now. To top it off, Brian wanted PF Chang’s for dinner. On the plus side, I get to eat PF Chang’s leftovers tomorrow. And Brian gets paid on Wednesday.

So even though we’re not in great shape financially at this particular moment. We are not completely destitute. Although, we missed our regular Sunday night poker home game.

Chinaman kind of threw us of our schedule last week. Then we are broke this week. That, and I needed to do some school work anyway. So it was all for the best. As soon as school lets out we should be playing poker regularly again.

Cellphone Woes

I just dialed #646# and here’s the prognosis: we are three minutes away from maxing out on our minutes for this billing cycle and our cycle closing date is not until May 9th.  Argggh!!  We’ve never had this problem before.

I guess calls to the breeder, the vet, Brian’s work, along with calls to and from my work have really taken their toll this month.  Hopefully, next month our calling habits will be back to normal.  I can’t afford to pay overage charges.

Anyway, reminder to everyone: do not call us until after May 9th.  If you need to reach us, send us a text message or call us on weekends.  Unless you’re with T-Mobile.  Then you may call us anytime.

Great Cam Site

I found this cam site the other day, Camliving.com, and it’s actually pretty cool.  They have over a dozen cams set up throughout their house.  I’m hoping one day, maybe when Brian and I move to a different house, we can set up something similar.  That would be so cool.
