>>> Cars and hounds...

... do not mix upon the asphalt.

My main dog, Chewie - the poor mite - was hit by a car on Friday night while my dad was walkin' him. And the bastard driver didn't even stop!

If I ever find out who did it, he's D-E-A-D-M-E-A-T. Literally.

At least, thankfully, Chewie is fine and is recovering.

Tho' he still has ticks, the poor thing.

YEESH, doesn't the pain ever end???

>>> A blanket of stars stretches out...

... and covers the world from horizon to horizon as a darkly glowing figure descends down the trodden path.
Though dark and troubled the path may be,
the light at travel's end that i seek soon shall i see,
even as the trail is o'er run with thorns most vile,
I shall trudge e'er on along this stretching mile.

For though this journey may be fraught and end sharp,
sweet cherubs shall sing and play upon golden harps,
once I reach journey's end and its rich green fields,
and there will peace lay, a blanket of stars that shields.

Written while in a state of drooping wakefulness and exhausted sleep.

>>> About time for another short update

I've realised that I rarely update this space of mine and for that I have to apologise.

Though, in my own defence, there have been extenuating circumstances, like work and the lack of motivation to do anything of real import.

And, besides, not much else has been happening lately.

Except for...

1. ... work being completely nuts and very tiring, but at least the peeps at work are nice. Riyah is the sweetest, tho', Hann is narrow-minded to the point of obsession with the subject of sex, Julian is pretty damn nice as well and, well, what can I say, all the Partners in my outlet are pretty good to me.

2. ... watching Speed Racer on Monday with Cho', Ferret, Ghoul and Pervalidus. It wasn't a bad movie, but a bit overboard wih the technicolor lights. Near epilepsy inducing, I swear. @_@'''

3. ... meeting Rach after work in Thomson Plaza on Wednesday. We talked for hours and it was great to see her again after so long. And, my God, has she grown!

4. ... heading out on Friday to the store outting at Arab Street. Had some pretty damn good food and shisha till my throat burned, lol! It was pretty cool. Have to transfer the photos that I took to the comp soon.

5. ... meeting up today with Lastride, Ferret, Pervalidus and Ghoul downtown in Cathay's Starbucks where we chilled while discussing stuff like art and Exalted. Came up with some good stuff, too. After Lastride had gone home, we headed down to Sim Lim. Along the way we met one of the regs from ViD and I reserved volumes 6 to 8 of the Air Gear manga. We hit Sim Lim at a leisurely stroll, getting the goods for Ferret in good time. We headed down to Bugis where we browsed through stuff in Kino and the comic store while cursing and swearing that we didn't have enough money to purchase the books that we wanted, tho' Ferret got a load of books that he wanted and now suffers from cognitive dissonance. Haha! Before we left for home, we visited Starbucks Bugis and surprised Riyah. All in all, a pretty good day. :)

And, now, with all that done, I'm off to play some WoW.

Even though what I really need is some solid loving.

*shrug*

Make do with what I have, right.

Tchao.

>>> All things come to an end...

... too bad it has to hurt when they do.

However, amazingly, it doesn't hurt as much as it should.

Yeap, Schakatze broke up with me on Saturday. Back to being "just friends".

No, I didn't cry and nor was I depressed. Much.

And, yes, I truly am blessed to have such a supportive and extensive extended family.
My sisters Lastride, 'Sassin, Project:K, Angel, Genetik Disaster ['GD'], ChocFudge, Flalicious (UK), Cha-Cha and Raven; my brothers Ferret, Twitch, Pervalidus, Plasticated (NZ), Ghoul and Nezrael; my peeps at Starbucks who know about this and that means Huda, Joseph, Adam and Nas; my crewmates Azhki47 & Heal21. All your words of wisdom and such kept me out of the muck of utter despair and my mind on the job.

Some individual props need to go out, so without further ado...

Lastride :: You're the very first one that I called and thank you so very much for being willing to talk to me even though you were busy. Thanks even more for the pep-talk and for cheering me up, it helped!

ChocFudge :: Thanks ever so much for getting me out of my crib, treating me to that movie & dinner and for making me laugh so much... and for putting up with all my nonsense while we walked back to your 'hood.

Flalicious :: Thanks for calling me all the way from Bristol, babe, it was great to hear from you and I appreciate your concern. *hugz*

Plasticated & Project:K :: Dude & Dudette, I don't know what I'd have done without you guys talking to me for that hour and a half. And, yes, I promise to not commit suicide, but I still didn't say anything about assisting in someone else's suicide! :D

God if I keep this up, this will go on forever...

.... suffice to say that I am bloody grateful and appreciative of all your support over the weekend. MUCH LOVE!!!

Oh, and I'm gonna be a godfather in June. Cha-Cha's having a baby. :)

FAMILY BEFORE SELF, BLOOD ABOVE ALL

Peace.
