One Week Celebration

I got home around 9pm last night. It was the earliest time I arrived in our house since Friday last week. The latest was a couple of minutes past 3 o'clock in the morning (and I have work on the same day... hehe). I was welcomed with greets and cheers but the feel of the celebration was apparently starting to expire. It was already late and the visitors were already done with their dinner, that's why. They were just only waiting for me to show up.

Attendance: Mommy Groovy, Utal Bon, Utol Long, Badong the Bayaw, Tita Grasya, Tita Linda, Enggam, Captain de Vera, Ninang Helen

I was delayed by several sidetrips on my way home: bought ten of this dirtcheap cheesburgers that I'm really really fond of, a big bunch of choco butternut and honey dipped munchkins, at syempre... tumaya ako sa lotto!

Birthday ko e... malay ko ba baka manalo.

My numbers:
A: 04, 07, 16, 22, 26, 37
B: 04, 07, 22, 34, 37, 44
C: 04, 07, 21, 24, 35, 40
D: 01, 07, 23, 26, 29, 42
E: 04, 07, 12, 22, 42, 43

Din't really pay much contemplation on picking my numbers. Yung iba may meaning, yung iba wala. Kung ano lang maguhitan ko, yun na yun. I checked the results this morning and the best I got was two numbers. Crap. Not my time to be a zillionaire.

Goin' home, I munched on one of the cheeseburgers. Gutom na ko e, at ako lang naman laman ng jeep. Inalok ko pa nga si Koya Tsuper. Sabi ko birthday ko. Hehe. Check how pity the picture was: me, alone on a ragtag jeepney munching on a cheap burger, singing "Happy birthday to me..." in my head, and Koya Tsuper with his "I don't give a crap" scowl. Sniff sniff.

Hahaha.

The real deal was that the Shak Boyz were all in Greenhills to watch "300", my college friends, were elsewhere partying themselves on a reunion of sorts, my HP chums were on the hardcourt playing basketball and Jai was asking me if I would want to watch a movie. I could as easily be on the go that day but I'd personally chosen to be at home... to be with my loved ones on my birthday. Still, it felt incomplete. I was at least expecting three special people to greet me. All failed! Buti pa si Bonita, naka-alala kahit nasa Amerika at busy sa trabaho. Grumble grumble. Anyway, nothing a good food can't hide! Verily, the surest way to a man's heart is through his stomach!

Grub of the night: pansit malabon, lumpiang shanghai, cake, burgers, donuts, macaroni soup, bopis, cox

Unang hirit ni Ninang Helen pag dating ko, "Oh, bakit wala kang date?!?"

Gulp. *ngiti*

Nasa isip ko nun, "I did my best, Ninang... but I guess, my best wasn't good enough. I think, she din't even know it was my birthday." Hee hee hee.

"Now if only you can lend me a pumpkin that turns into a Porsche, some rodents that turn into a driver and bodyguards, a pair of glass slippers, and a magic that could turn me to look like Piolo until midnight, then maybe I could find a decent date right now."

Hahaha. Astig.

Anyway, after everyone left, I just went back to painting my miniatures. What a day. Madami pang pahabol na bumati sa akin... some of em where like "representatives" of those I was waiting for. *smirk*
