What I want for my birthday...
is a typical Filipino breakfast – fried rice, chorizo (specifically the ones that come from Cebu) and fried dried fish, complete with vinegar and soy sauce combo dip. Man, I could almost smell it! This is one of those times when I wish I were home. :-( Anyone out there who could feed me that today? Oh well...
I warded off the onslaught of homesickness by talking to my family on the phone and it worked. My 10-year-old nephew told me he has two girlfriends. I've no idea what he means by having a girlfriend. Maybe someone he could share his snacks with during recess. I also received phone calls and emails from friends and it feels nice to be thought of today.
Since the husband is at work today, I celebrated with ice cream while watching crappy shows on tv. Such is life. Maybe I'll grab a beer later.
Jacqui, Jovy, Threese, Rose, Lynden, Badet, Aimee, Elisa, Mabel, Harold, college friends - thank you guys for your wonderful greetings! Truly appreciate it. Cheers!
