Hi Friends! I'm back...I was too busy to post anything during the year end. I hope everything's A-Okay in your part of the world. I will try to post more from now on. Hmmm. Let me see....
My Great Dane, Dama ( a 28 kilo 7 month old behemoth) is doing fine...very fine ....She's shredding evrything into very fine pieces.
Work is the same toxic grind.
Friends are still friendly.
Health is as expected... age is hard on my heels...trying to catch up while I sprint as fast as i can away from it.
I just had my birthday, i treated about 40 + people to lunch at Wok In Makati (a chinese resto). Their fried squid heads and sipa and mixed vegetables evaporated from the tables rather fast. I got a few treasured gifts.
hmmm. what else.
Family's Okay. but wait...hmmm... An eleven year old relative just died. He has been born helpless. He was born with a defective body and did not really "live". When he was born, the doctors said he will die very soon. He didn't and lingered for almost eleven years. Poor kid. :( . He didnt sit, didnt stand, didnt understand. He didnt talk, he didnt walk or smile at folks. I don't think he was even able to think for eleven years. Life wasnt good to Thomas, poor kid. But everybody around him loved him anyway and took good care of him. Last saturday he hust went away. I couldn't even say that he died for he didnt really live. He must be in heaven now...where else can he go?
Poor kid. Everyone misses him so, but he is better off where he is now for when he was here, he really wasn't.
The Nation. Hmmm there's nothing i can do about it hahahah. Everything seems to be in a rut. The intelligensia is scared of having a know-nothing actor as their new president. Odds are that this will happen. The think thanks are however, saying that it doesn't really matter since in a politics of personalities, not much change can be expected.
