moving along

bad week.

I couldn't wait for Chinese New Year to come. This year is supposed to be great for DRAGONS. This year is good for anything that requires dealing with people.. such as relationships, business ... um, pretty much everything isn't it? When do you not deal with people? That's the problem with fortunes, they can be so vague and stupid. But I still believe them.

So with last years forces still working against me, CB and I just found out that a Manila TV personel, ???Montenegro?? decided to get married for the second time and took the booking off our hands. That's just F-ed up. I can see why they'd choose to accomodate him and his 400+ guests but now we're left with the smaller ballroom, or to just change the date. I'm not sure I want to be stuck in a hotel with another wedding party blocking the beach and ballroom. We're still debating on what to do.

some good news..The wedding bickering has finally stopped between CB and I. The bad news...It took one big public argument in a restaurant and a dramatic display of temper that I'll never forgive myself for to finally calm us down.

good news...My dress is being made by Lorymer, CB's cousin. It's good in a way, because it's out of my hands and there's no point worrying about it. Problem is, the guy never checks his emails. What are you doing with my dress buddy?? He came highly recommended from his relatives, but it never occured to me to ask him if he even wanted the job!
It's ok. I've got a back up dress.

bad news.... we've got ants in the house. Those ant traps never work. They don't even crawl into those things! It gets worse everyday, now they're all over our pantry!

arrr.....

Change your venue!! The hotel will be too busy servicing them and you're going to be screwed ~ think bad service!!

Yeah, change your venue, or change your date. It's never a good thing to have the greatest single day of your life being thrust into shadow just because someone famous is there too.

As for ants, there's some kind of powder that you can use; it's like razor blades to them, but powder to us, and they don't like walking near there. Or you can find out what's not sealed properly and remove it.
