sad catty
so, right now i'm quite disappointed in myself... panu has gone on holidays* and i am not functioning without him! i think i do well to trick everyone into believing i'm functioning, but really i'm a mess ~ i'm thinking about him all day, all night, and when my phone receives an sms, i literally dive for it, due to the slight chance that it could be a message from him!
it's all a bit pathetic really. I thought I would be doing much better seeing as I was little miss independent up until not that long ago. But apparently not, so let's just count sleeps ok? 7 more sleeps til he gets back! *sigh*
* Osnabruck, Germany for 10 days, for his friend Timo's wedding, basking in the gorgeous 30 degree sunshine and eating bratwursts to his hearts content. Bastard!

porker!
quite often on a weekend, well... more often than not, my first words to panu in the morning is ".... baby..., i'm hungry..." so i'm officially his little porker. but let him not be the only person who will verify my porker status.
on Saturday night, mel, babs, me & our boys went to Hurricanes for dinner. I devoured a whole full rack of ribs, all on my own! YeaaaaHHH! need i say more?
oh yeh, I do need to say more.... like sunday's banana crepes with chocolate & ice cream for breakfast (thanks Babs!), and not one, not two but three delicious enchilada's for dinner!

we're back!
We are back from Brissie! relatively unscathed and unscarred from meeting the fockers, but only just! poor panu was the sickest he'd ever ever been, having been bitten by what was possibly the nastiest fugliest flu bug that ever stepped foot on this earth. he was coughing, he was spluttering, he was shivering, he was boiling... he was most definitely in no mood to meet the girlfriend's parents for the first time. but boy do i adore him, he really tried to smile and chat each time his lungs would allow him to suck in tiny breaths of air (before more or less choking on it) and for that, he wins massive brownie points.
the time in brissie didn't seem quite long enough and I didn't catch up with as many people as i had wanted to. i did get in some quality time with ying & tiff & dessert @ freestyle, and also with shari, nadja & mrs skinner @ the jaz bar.... i spent some much appreciated time with my mum catching up on the family goss, and also spent a fair chunk of time biting my tongue as my dad lectured me on money matters. i think he collects his angst on my lack of savings, nurtures it well, and lets it loose nice and strong each time i visit....
all in all in good trip, too short, i miss my mum way too much.....
