Why can I never get a straight answer from a man? We’re planning a trip to Guernsey (an island) dead early tomorrow morning, so I need to know what time we have to leave so I can set my alarm.
Me: What time do we have to leave home?
Piers: No earlier than an hour before the time we have to be there – which is an hour before we sail (6 am).
Took me 11 minutes of questioning, during which time I got more riddles, before I received the answer: 4 am.
Piers “invented” a really delicious Asian snack combo: Prawn crackers with hoisin sauce! So proud of him!
I also found this awesome lemongrass-flavoured prawn crackers at Tesco. From Netherlands, but makers were Indoneisan settlers. Tastes so great when you dip into hoisin sauce (sparingly)!
Yeah I know my photos are missing from my blog header. Looks very funny, doesn’t it?
Nanny Wen (aka Buggy Wen aka Davienne) says it reminds her of Harry Potter’s moving picture people.
Guess my photos are taking a break. They’ve gone into hiding because it’s been raining a lot in England and the weather forecast says it’s going to hail tomorrow.
IN THE MIDDLE OF SUMMER!
Crazy or not.
I thought I’d be in discomfort for a year because I was finding it impossible to get used to Invisalign in my mouth. But just 11 days into it, I hardly feel it anymore.
Was playing on my iPad before bed last night when I suddenly couldn’t feel plastic in my mouth and for one horrifying moment, thought that I had forgotten to put my aligners back on after dinner, which was ages ago.
Turned out it’s just my mouth has started to adapt.
Quote of the day
Me: I want a pet duckling!
Piers: LOL why!!!
Me: Cos they’re so cute.
Piers: All baby things are cute! Except babies.
A transport provider in the UK just sent me an e-mail asking me to take part in an online survey to help improve services.
So I go there and answer two questions (age and last time I used the service) and they say:
“Thank you for your time. Unfortunately, you do not qualify for the survey as this time around we are looking to survey our more senior customers (over 60) only.”
WTF fail.
Was googling the difference between biscuits and cookies and got linked to a Yahoo! Answers page. This guy’s answer made me LOL.
“The difference between the biscuit and the cookie is the Atlantic.
Plus, American biscuit more like a savory scone
Plus English biscuit is an American cookie.
Plus English or American cookie is in your computer to do stuff that no one really understands.”
Being too ambitious (or greedy). Two heaped bowls of ricotta and spinach tortelloni in bolognese sauce, with six sausages and three baby zucchinis thrown into the mix. A roll of garlic bread and a bottle of wine. Delicious!
Yay I got white tulips! My favouritest flowers. :)
England has the most beautiful flowers. Tulips and roses in white with pale pink. Gerberas in strawberry milk pink. Makes me happy!
Just read in detail about foot binding in ancient China. I always thought they just wrapped up the feet during infancy to stop them from growing.
But, no! They wait till the girl is 4-7 years old, then break her toes and arch bones so that the toes can curl under the sole. Without anaesthesia.
After wrapping the monstrous creation tightly, the girl is then forced to walk on her broken feet so her weight can help crush them into shape. The feet are crushed and rebound daily for like two years! WTF is wrong with people?!

Is there a lightbulb inside?
hoho who the heck will consider buying that(IF it gets commercial in the first place), seriously?
can she breathe in that..?!
Thank God it is still in concept! If it ever goes to production, it will just further the demise of mankind, just like The Clapper (to turn on an off lights) and the smokeless ashtray did.
Lazy is as lazy does, I suppose.
That’s “mad”.. hahahahah!
Hahhaaha, I couldn’t stop laughing too. Yea, some of those comments are hilarious. There may not be a laptop there…*evil grin*.
Who needs to buy this when you can just use a regular sweater to create the same effect.
this is a great concept! all the girls should start using this, then I won’t feel guilty/caught staring at their chest.
Oh my goodness! What the hell is that person watching that she has to turn into a giraffe? Anyway, turning into a giraffe will just attract more attention, so what’s the point of wearing the giraffe suit after all?
Sheer genius!
alamak this is great invention. imagine if i can use that in lab? then my boss won’t even know if i’m sleeping. cool
dingo: Wouldn’t the laptop be a light source by itself? :P
shin: Yeah, that’s one of my first thoughts when I saw that.
Mike M: Haha. Well, the clapper isn’t that bad, is it? I mean, it’s not ugly or embarrassing or anything like that. lol.
modchip: Yeah, isnt it?
Mother: What would you hide in YOUR sweater? ;)
The Goonfather: How?
Tim: Er… next!!! :P
Monster: Haha, that’s true. But then at least people can’t see what she’s doing on her laptop. :P
Kenny: I hope you meant that at least half in sarcasm. ;)
Tianhong: If you use that in your office, I think your boss will sack you right away. lol.
It really does look like she’s being eaten by some… diabolical ooze. LOL
Mince Pye: Haha yes. I think the sweater would do very nicely in a B-grade horror movie. :P Let’s film our own movie and contact the company to loan their sweaters. lol.
Hahaha… we can do machinima…
OOZE
Oh, it;s bad Sheylara. Have you ever seen the commercials for them. There’s a bunch of 80 year-olds clapping their hands from the couch. Wouldn’t in make sense to turn the light on when they enter the room than from the couch. How he hell can they even find the couch in the dark? Do old people have some kind of night vision we don’t know about?
Well, I suppose the could clap on the lights after a couple of old folks make geriatric love…..ok, that made me dry heave!!
They finally tested these here in the US. So many people got beat up using them. It was horrable
Now that is a really good idea. My students would love it. They could game and MSN without worrying…
