meet the parents and random musings

It really should say how my parents and his parents met. But that's too long.

We've been going out for close to two years and who knew it was time for them meet? Errr. Don't some parents meet after a proposal or at least when it's been too long to even count the years? Again, Errr. But anyway, an invitation was extended and accepted. Fortunately, it went well and if I may say so, better than my dreams led me to fear.

Anyway, they danced, laughed and ate. What else could I/we ask for? :D

It seems like I've picked up a few habits that I would like to get rid of. I can't stop saying "oh gosh" to situations I have nothing else to say to. Patients would tell me about their history in terms of how many surgeries they've had and all I could say was "oh gosh". How annoying is that?

Then there's huh? which I somehow got from my nephew. I only use it with J and it takes him a little while before he realizes I'm just teasing (at least after the third time of repeating).

And lastly, I've been saying ta-da! I'm just a sucker for kiddy sayings.

I've been needy and somewhat demanding lately (hahaha. I'm sure someone would disagree). After another no-battery excuse for why his cellphone was off, I decided that the best way to teach him a lesson was to turn off mine too. Sadly, it doesn't work as I still have a house phone he can try to call which my parents would gladly answer. After thinking about it, I childishly said that the next time I am out with friends or coworkers, my phone will be off too. The only way this would work though is if I actually go out. :S

My swiping the card habit is hurting me. I'm in denial as to how much I've spent during this month and how much I actually made. Sigh.
