happy tired
happy tiredÂ
yup you read that right, i’m tired but happy. just got over that weekend hangover with mia and some friends. i just had to pay a really high price for having fun. i got bedridden-sick last sunday and had to stay home till yesterday and i thought i had dengue. the fever’s gone now, but i’m still feeling a bit sluggish (and my insides aren’t that all functioning well) so i might have something else.
anyway, i finally tested my supermommy powers to see how far i can go with just mia and me. i thought, ‘this is a piece of cake. i’ll just put her on her stroller and push her around’. by the time we got to leslie’s i was a bit on my nerve’s ends because mia wouldn’t sit still on her high chair and would grab anything within her reach.

or, she would reach out to mommy to take her somewhere else where she can see the dancing lights and tree leaves a little closer. mariel, tin, and jeff tried to be the sub but mia wouldn’t last that long with anyone else because she wanted mommy, mommy, mommy!
i did manage to enjoy the bulalo, bangus belly, and lechon kawali
i really had to be a party pooper afterwards for asking to go home because i was really tired by then. we didn’t even stay for coffee anymore to wait for one of our other friends, aurie.
lesson learned? never dare to tag the little one along on long trips without a certified untiring yaya (like lola). hehe
love DSL?
finally we got broadband internet. yeah yeah you can call me ancient for getting dsl this late when everybody’s up to wireless broadband already! me and my cousins finally decided to split the bill to have everyone connected to pldt myDSL. they bought a router and finally tested it last night. it works! i was asleep (trying to, actually) already, though, so i wasn’t able to test if the wifi works on my laptop.
by the time i post this entry, i would’ve found out already
after one night and one day…
and yeah, i did find out that it sucks. either that, or we’re just trying to troubleshoot the connections by ourselves and we suck. my cousin who’s already techie enough couldn’t figure out what else is wrong with my network settings. para sa mga hindi techie, you’d know how i feel. gusto ko ng itapon sa labas tong laptop ko.

right after reading this I had all my troubleshooting steps outlined in my mind, it felt like reflex. haha. i think what my friend said was right. you can take the girl out of tech support but you can’t take tech support out of the girl. argh. oh well.

Kainggit naman.. bulalo, bangus belly and lechon kawali..
I hope somehow the sumptuous food and the company of friends, made your efforts well worth the trip.

Maybe that means you need to go out and take more time off. Nanibago siguro yung katawan mo sa “rest break.” Hope you’ll feel better.
My folks use myDSL at home and it seems to be working fine except for a certain period when they lost connection for a week! I use Smartbro and my internet surfing has been smooth eversince. Try mo kung mapagod ka sa PLDT.

hi ris, that’s the reason why, when ninna was mia’s age, i never went out by myself. i had to have hubby along or else bad trip ako pag uwi, hehe. now that she’s older, i love taking her along when i shop. nakakatawa mga hirit niya sa mga gusto kong bilhin.
anyway, i hope you’re feeling better now. i would be if i had bulalo and bangus belly, haha!

ate pao - i wish i had your superpowers! hehe. and i still haven’t fixed it yet! anyway we decided to get our own myDSL account so when the tech guy comes, i’ll just let him do it
brilliant plan!
lester – hey thanks for dropping by! it was worth it, i just know better now.
jayme – siguro nga. di na kasi sanay maglalabas. ever since i gave up sales, i’ve been really tamad. hehe. and i’m tempted to use smart bro instead. i heard from someone di daw maganda ang pldt? i think it was ate pao. hehe
meeya – im looking forward to that day with my mia!
