When Kamil found out, he totally blew his top. I didn’t say anything as really, it wasn’t her fault. Kamil’s cat defecated on it so she took it to wash. Nobody told her she can’t wash the damn thing. So I wasn’t angry at her. Plus, I didn’t know it either ! Ha ha. To me she deserved a medal because she managed to lift up the very heavy carpet and took the initiative to wash it. Other people wouldn’t care kan ? But she did. So she made a mistake, fine just tell her not to do it againlah.
Anyway since the carpet was a tad too bristly for my liking, I moved to the sofa at some point and then I kept waking up because it was too cold. Plus too lazy to go up and get meself a duvet. So, interrupted sleep all the way.
We went swimming after breakfast. It was too hot, the kids swam for an hour before Kamil and I joined them. Actually Kamil caved in first then when I got bored sitting alone, I thought what the heck, berkilat pun berkilat lah. Metallic is the new black this year anyway so I could be in fashion.
The sun was blazing atop of me head and I swam around the huge pool trying to get a shady area. I was the party pooper sure, refusing to join in the games, but it was too damn hot. Victoria Beckham can’t think in flats and I can’t think in such heat. So sue me.
We drove to One Utama for wayang after that. Percy Jackson and The Lightning Thief was scheduled to be aired around 2.30 but as usual all the good seats were taken. Kamil said nevermind lah, we stop by The Curve later on and get pukul 9 punya show.
Went to Chillies where we were forced to wait for our food for close to 40 minutes. Kamil who is usually very relaxed with matters like this got bloody irritated when 2 tables that came before us were served first. It turned out, our waiter had forgotten to key in our orders !! Apa kah ?
I told the manager, “I give you 5 more minutes or I will walk out…” Cheh.. konon. After delivering my very smug threat, I got a bit concerned if the kitchen staffs were gonna spit on my food or stamp on my salad leaves.
After 4 minutes, I started to worry, in 1 minute’s time do we have to pay for the drinks or just strode out ? Then I started to plan the most dignified way to stage a walk out but couldn’t figure out how. I can’t even think how my face should look like when I do so. Determined face ? Angry ? Relaxed ? Sombong nak kena lempang punya ? Nonchalant ?
Then I was thinking, everybody’s stomachs were growling like mad in account of our swimming so if I leave in, oh the next half a second, where can I get food to be served in like 1 minute ?
“Kamil, why didn’t I say 10 or 15 minutes instead of 5 ? Macam sekejap sangat 5 tu….” I blurted out. Kamil rolled his eyes.
He he…. Okay, please remember to give the restaurant at least 15 minutes, okay ?
Plus, I need more guts than this for a successful high and mighty walk out.
However none of it was necessary. I was bloody thankful when our food came right on the dot. No dramas required !!
But the food managed to unseat me though. The salad was towering high and Abang’s plate was filled with chips. Kamil and I as usual shared a salad and a main course but the portion was too darn big, we can’t finish off our food. Maybe they were trying to compensate for our wait, I dunno.
Then the waiter came with dessert, molten lava cake with a scoop ice-cream. Eii ? Apa ni ? Tak order pun…. Oh … olive branch from the restaurant, totally on the house.
La….. telan lah jugak eventhough we were full…because entah, macam segan….. he he….. Tak makan karang kata sombong lak.... He he
Then the bill came out to RM 65…. Hmmm…. Apasal lak murah sangat ?
Tulah… nak marah konon (although, I have to stress that Kamil and I remained courteous when we complained to the manager, with smiles on our faces lagi.. but it was still unpleasant kan ?), but when they were accommodating, segan lak. Itulah namanya orang bangang.
Anyway, we went to watch the movie still very much full from the aftermath of lunch. I was glad Abang decided not to have dinner or even snacks. I need to teach him that he must only eat when hungry.
The movie was awesome. I love Percy Jackson. I really do-oo-oo. I have always loved reading Greek and Roman mythology so I was enraptured from the very beginning. Hai…. Poseidon…… so handsome….. He he…. I totally recommend this movie, a flick full of magic, and heroes and fabled creatures with a touch of young romance…. Sigh.
I love Pierce Brosnan. To me he is Bond. Sure Daniel Craig is nice, so is Sean Connery but Mr Brosnan is more Bond than the rest of them. Even as a centaur he still looked debonair, retaining his effortless charm. I will not look at a horse the same way again....
Sweet.
*Okay… you know why I really love him ? Because he seems to still be besotted with his overweight wife. So if things get out of control for me, I can cite him as a positive example. I just happen to think nice is sexy… kindness is seductive….loyalty is sensuous. Salah ke ? Tak.
Before going home, Kamil swung by to get CDs and I managed to persuade him to buy Rebound. Yeay !
Tuesday morning we took Mum to IKEA. And taking my Mum to IKEA is a huge sacrifice for the people involved, a true test of patience. But good children we are, eventhough we felt like hiding in the woods when she insinuated her wish, we didn’t. We took her there all the same and she had a grand time so it was nice. I love Mum so it was nice to see her happy.
Lunch time at IKEA is a sardine-y affair (as in tightly packed like a tin of one) so we had lunch at a steamboat place which was very nice. Mum liked it so all is well.
I baked when we got home, lepak-lepak and played badminton. Then it rained so we watched a few dvds. Made pizza for dinner, just for the kids. Mak bapak was full from lunch.
If it was up to them, their pizza would be devoid of the base... only the pepperoni, baked with mozarella on top... Pengsan okay..
Kamil kata bukan hitam, berjelaga... whatever lah but look at my daughter... he he... Main tennis, swimming... still beautiful...
Budak-budak tidur, Kamil and I settled down to watch Rebound. Catherine Zeta Jones is one beautiful momma okay. Buat lah cara macamana pun, at any angle, she will still look as lovely and as sweet. Patutlah Michael Douglas tak tidur malam.
The movie is quite sweet. About a wife who stumbled upon a video of her husband… err…. well…. in el flagranto dilectica with what seems like a close family friend….. in the kitchen where we can not just hear his fellatious moaning (can I say that ?), but also his family and guests singing happy birthday to his son in the living room.
Yeah…classy.
Anyway they quickly separated, she had to work to support her family and inadvertantly got involved with her children’s nanny. So this is a serious cougar thing going on, so expect some embarassing scenes, seriously hilarious ones too and heart-wrenching moments. Of course at the end, you went “Awwwww……”
I love it. Kamil does too so you might as well try it.
