Not so good start for Valentine's Day

What do I expect anyway? After 10 years of marriage, 14 years of togetherness, this is the kind of Valentine' Day gift I get from someone who profess 101% love to me alone. What kind of gift, huh?

Early morning, I still need to get up darn early to drive my son to school. It's a replacement for CNY holiday. Those with children going to chinese schools will know. I came home and tidied up my kitchen, normal routine and boiled superdeeduper bitter leong-cha for my kids. Meimei had coughed quite badly last night. Sounds to me like an impending sore throat.

Then I went to lie down on the sofa to steal some napping time. Shucks! I hate that I can't sleep in during Saturdays. So sleepy.

The kids came out very soon and turned on the TV to watch their favorite cartoon network while leaving me alone. Real nice. Until the papa. He came out, hugged me and wished "Happy Valentine's Day". Which sounded real sweet, right? Then he had to "poot poot" 2 times fart to accompany his wish. A real turn-off, if you ask me. Sigh.. never mind la.. I chose this guy to marry, have to accept all these as package, correct?

Then, we went out for breakfast. And we have to argue over a small simple matter. It's like this. He asked me before if I would like to watch Cheng Sau Mun's concert in Genting before twice. Today, he said tonight is the Yip Sin Mun's concert in Genting. I was surprised. I said I didn't know Sally Yeh is here for a concert. He said he asked me before and I declined. I am very sure he said Cheng Sau Mun and he denied saying her name.

Aiyah.. said wrongly only mah.. what's the big deal? Can't he just say "Did I? Well, then I must have made a mistake". After all, it's only normal that sometimes we think of 1 thing and say thing 2. Right? NO! He must go and "ignite my fire" and blame me instead. He asked me why I didn't interject him and ask why want to go and watch Cheng Sau Mun woh.. Really "got-he-say, no-I-say". Sigh.. these are the things I have to put up with him. Tell me, if this is not love, why am I still putting up with him, huh? Now, don't get started that it's because of money, we don't talk about $$$ all the time, right? :D

Anyway, I told myself let's not get worked up over a small matter like this. It's such a beautiful day after all. And I have a date with few other couples tonight as well.

As a consolation for sacrificing all their celebrations and candlelight dinners with their loved ones, I bought a nice Mango mousse cake for all to share. After all, yes, it's partially my fault to initiate a potluck BBQ party at a friend's home on today, of all days. Then again, I'm pretty sure the men are thanking me in their hearts that they do not need to fork out extra expenses to treat their wives to overpriced dinner outside. Anyway, I sent out SMS to them convincing them that tonight's boring party won't be dragged too long and disrupt their late night love session. Hehe..

Happy Valentine's Day *poot poot*!!
