i had flu and pneumonia vaccine shots last tuesday
and got a raging migraine from thursday to saturday.
after a late breakfast and popping meds on saturday,
slept from 12nn to 2pm.
that sleep worked miracles -
healed the body as it did the soul.
pistachio ice cream
yesterday's lunch was pistachio ice cream, jollibee champ burger and more pistachio ice cream.
do i eat my dessert first before the main course?
not usually, but i am glad i can choose to when i want to.

playing favorites
twin reminded me that in college, i used to say i am God's favorite child.
around 8-9 years out of college,
and after our latest episode of catching up and filling in each other with details of our lives,
we giggled and exclaimed that that's actually true!
haha, i don't believe God plays favorites. :)
i just coined the term as an acknowledgement of God's goodness.
i am blessed indeed.

shelter from the storm
typhoon frank hit the metro, and not just the metro, violently.
many are left homeless, a number, lifeless.
angsts* and sense of relief** don't mix too well.
i rest, believing, God is sovereign.
*[typhoons visit this country every single year and several times at that, don't we learn at all? can't we at least be ready of some sort?]
**[people i personally know are spared from harm]

time well spent
friday and saturday nights were with ading and tso respectively.
talked about work, travel, family and life in general.
thankful for friends who share my zest for good conversation and good food.
the stormy weather made the time warmer.
i thank you both for spending time with me.

middle fiddle
a conversation piece during dinner yesterday went something like this:
"so the rice shortage show might have been staged to cover up the zte thing, now who is lozada again?"
"it is rather sad to see people queuing whole morning (some start at 3am) to buy 2 kilos of nfa rice... we passed by such queue along amorsolo earlier."
"and the irony of rising gasoline prices and porsche and audi and imported gas--gusler SUV filling up the metro. quite a handful are feeding on the poverty of the masses. tsk."
being in between is not all that bad. grateful.
i think of both extremes. prayerful.

i can see in color
last night, watched Arashi no Yoru Ni (あらしのよるに) or On a Stormy Night.
the scenes in Gabu's (the wolf) mind, when he was trying to remember who he was,
were in black and white.
today, to show my gratefulness to the God who thought of colors,
i am wearing a shirt with differently colored long sleeves.
