Status update!

<<~ says it's time for me to head back to bed and snuggle with my blankets and a good book and make some more hot chocolate. Maybe add a few more blue sparkle moments to that mix too.

*ciao*

<<~ has not been doing too much reading in bed today. I did happen to notice though that I have 13 friends here online with me right now.



In other news: The sun finally came out and my baby boy bird is out in the pine tree singing a rather annoying song right now. He usually sings a sweet melody. He's probably distressed that he might have to fly for miles and miles to find a new home soon.

Feels like forever since I was last in Kuala Lumpur. And I haven't seen my ex since ...? April at least. It's been ok. Staying at her place tonight and will be ok - as long as she doesn't try to kiss me. She was pissed off at me this afternoon for texting and "not talking to her". Oh the delicious irony of that statement!

I bought a new battery for my camera and a new card reader. Wanted to buy a new teeshirt but gave up - the cheap ones are made of nasty thin fabric and I didn't like any of the more expensive teeshirts/tops.

I often find clothes shopping stressful. I'm either not fat enough or too fat. Can't win. But my ex introduced me to her ex-boss who works in a women's boutique and do made-to-order. So maybe there is a perfect dress out there that doesn't make me look like a sack of spuds.

I've quite enjoyed being in Bukit Bintang - a little bit of familiarity when I'm always a stranger.

<<~ I just made a nice cup of coffee, had some fresh fruit (an orange and some strawberries and a banana) with toasted slices of sourdough that I smeared with tons of butter. *yummy*

I'm also listening to Samuel Barber's Adagio for Strings...

Story goes that Barber wrote this masterpeice when he was 26 yrs. old.
That, later in life he dedicated it to his dead wife. And that, in 1936,
Toscanini conducted the first performance of it at Rockefeller Center in NYC.



and finish my morning time by listening to....

Sergei Rachimaninoff's acapella arrangement of Ave Maria.

<---- made an awesome salad for lunch today: baby spinach dressed in a light olive oil and white balsamic vinegar with tomatoes, baked chicken breast, half an avocado and hand chopped almonds.

for Katzchen (I love Barbers Adagio)



forgot to add: the good salad makes up for the truly appalling breakfast choice I made this morning....
for future reference - chocolate dipped pomegranate seeds are not a good substitution for blueberries in one's plain greek yogurt. For real.

That salad sounds absolutely lovely and so does the chocolate dipped pomegranate seeds and blueberries and greek yogurt!!!!

*LOL* You are so sweet and a lovely, lovely cook!

I hope your puppy is being adorable today
as well as those little cherubs you know too
and that sunshine reigns in your universe today!
