The Family Girl Blogs (aka "The New Working Girl Blogs") Blog #22: Road Trip To see all of Bobbie's Family Girl Blogs, click on this link: http://bigclosetr.us/topshelf/book/28818/family-girl-blogs

Hi.   Moe n I decided on going on a spur-of-the-moment road trip.   She had just resigned from her job and yesterday was her last day, whereas I am having a mild case of cabin fever.   So, crazy or not, we're going on a road trip to cheer ourselves up.   So we're getting an early start on the day, and just drive around, just be a couple of tourists, check in at a hotel, and be back tomorrow.   Or maybe Friday (wink wink).   Weather seems good, save for the 40-degree temp.   But we'll be okay.

So seeya in a day or two!

Due to a very cooperative tailwind, our plane landed early, and I got through customs real quick on account of I only had my wheelie and my wardrobe bag, and I am now home.   I missed my Moe.

this was supposed to be a comment, a piece of unsolicited advice, actually, for dorothycolleen, in her blogpost, "Disassociation" -

http://bigclosetr.us/topshelf/blog/32731/disassociation

i originally wanted to post it as a comment, but looking at how involved i got in writing it, i thought i'd make it a blog instead. so, i think you'd best read her blog first, so this one will make some sense.

Gay penguins to undergo reparative therapy (good thing they weren't at the Tehran Zoo!):

Buddy and Pedro, a married pair of male African penguins at the Toronto zoo are being seperated
and paired with female penguins. Apparently this wasn't done for religious or moralistic reasons but
because the population of this species is in perilous decline. Let's hope they can rise to the occasion.

Does anyone know where the word/prefix "retro" comes from?   I'm sure many do, but I didn't so I had to google it.   Anyway, it's a Latin prefix that means "backwards" or "in the past."   Hence you now get words like "retrospective" or "retroactive" et cetera.   Last Monday, I indulged in a little bit of retro-ing.

Since last month, I have been dreading September.   I was informed by the bosses that, because of my recent work, I was put on a short list of middle/upper-middle managers that were supposed to be part of the company's so-called "flying squad."

It's 2:30am now as I start writing this - a dark, windy and rainy early Sunday (or is it late Saturday evening)   Appropriate, I guess, for what I am writing right now.   Yes, honey - this is a ghost story.   It's even true.   And I'm all alone right now, writing about it.

I've been in the hospital since Monday, so I've been incommunicado for a while. No internet or phone calls. Doctor’s orders. Yeah, bummer. I had to stay in the hospital for observation, as well as have some tests. You see, I had a concussion at work last Monday morning. I got beat up.

Nope. This is not a commercial for a post in the Stories section or something like that, but a real, honest-to-goodness blog. So be cool.

Anyway...

Yesterday, I had my first jog in weeks. You would think that having started all of this jogging more than five months ago, it would be less of a novelty. But it still is, and I still enjoy it as a welcome change from my day-to-day, and not just a way to keep healthy. And I guess all of us have a bit of an exhibitionist streak (though I don't mean I go around jogging in the nude lol),

The Working Girl Blogs Revision 2.0 Blog #44: Back home To see all of Bobbie's Working Girl Blogs, click on this link: http://bigclosetr.us/topshelf/book/19261/working-girl-blogs

I arrived home at around 1PM yesterday, tidied up my place, did some laundry, went to my folks to drop off some "pasalubong", had some dinner out, and tried to get as much sleep as I can to combat jetlag & to recover from the more-than-twenty-four-hour flight (not to mention two transfers).

Glad to be home.

Anyway, I'm gonna post a long blog this weekend with a lot of pics (which I will "anonymize" - hope you guys won't mind), that I hope you'll like. Not too many Manila pics, but lots of pics of my Palawan weekend (which was mostly swimming, swimming and more swimming).
