Reunited and it feels so good

The past week and coming week has been all about rekindling friendships..
of friends from high school, and uni mates.
Lum, is the second in the infamous gang, who will be tying the knot in January 2010, in the States. Time flies, and some of the friends who attended the bachelorette party were friends I have not met in 6 years! I would have thought that we would all have changed in many ways, but strangely enough, we behaved just like how we were 6 years ago. And that was good to know. A wild crazy night indeed but well worth it.
Ahh, nostalgia ..

1+2+5

A few years ago, mum got herself a silky terrier puppy for Christmas.
Because she claimed we didn't love her enough.
And so, we called her Grace.
This year, Grace gave mum (and us) 5 early christmas prezzies in the form of her adorable new born babies!
3 Males, 2 Females.
And 10 December 2009 is the date to remember. :)


And all these adorable babies ever do, day and night, is...
suckle suckle suckle, cuddle cuddle cuddle...
What a good life :)

These darlings are the 2nd batch of Grace's pups.
The first three were: Roxy, Rayanne, and Russell.
( Notice how they all started with R?? )
Now, to wait for Miss Becks to come up with 5 royal names like she did for the first 3..
And maybe to be fair, they should all begin with A..
Amanda, Andrea, Andrew, Alex, Anthony.
Or should it be something funkier crazier like..
Salmon, Tuna, Cod, Talapia, Dory
Salt, Pepper, Sugar, Vinegar, Oil
Obviously, naming your pets (and children in the future) can be such a daunting task.
It has got to be right. Cos there's no turning back.

U Blonde??

This goes out to all the blondes I know, or even the blondes out there! Enjoy! (",)

********
Two sisters, one blonde and one brunette, inherit the family ranch. Unfortunately, after just a few years, they are in financial trouble.

In order to keep the bank from repossessing the ranch, they need to purchase a bull so that they can breed their own stock. Upon leaving, the brunette tells her sister, 'When I get there, if I decide to buy the bull, I'll contact you to drive out after me and haul it home. The brunette arrives at the man's ranch, inspects the bull, and decides she wants to buy it. The man tells her that he will sell it for $599, no less.

After paying him, she drives to the nearest town to send her sister a telegram to tell her the news. She walks into the telegraph office, and says, I want to send a telegram to my sister telling her that I've bought a bull for our ranch. I need her to hitch the trailer to our pickup truck and drive out here so we can haul it home. The telegraph operator explains that he'll be glad to help her, then adds, it will cost 99 cents a word. Well, after paying for the bull, the brunette realizes that she'll only be able to send her sister one word.

After a few minutes of thinking, she nods and says, 'I want you to send her the word 'comfortable'. The operator shakes his head. How is she ever going to know that you want her to hitch the trailer to your pickup truck and drive out here to haul that bull back to your ranch if you send her just the word 'comfortable'?

The brunette explains, "My sister's blonde. The word is big.

She'll read it very slowly.... 'com-for-da-bul."
