The Semi-Birthday Post

I will do an actual birthday post on the weekend, I hope, after a little family gathering plus pasyal in San Francisco. Anyway, this by far is the year that I’ve received the most greetings. They started pouring in last Monday and then the flood began yesterday, already the 23rd in the Philippines, Australia and [...]

On the Loose: Downtown SF

Ooooohhhhh…yesterday was definitely a nondomesticated day. I let the finest inadvertently domesticated diva in me roam free around Downtown San Francisco the entire afternoon. I set a date with my cousin, Patticakes, last week for a shopping day in the city and I am so glad that it materialized. My body is aching all over [...]

Vertigo!!!

No, not that cool U2 song. I had my first vertigo experience when I was, maybe, 9. The first time I felt it was when one of the neighborhood kids accidentally knocked me off-balance. I felt like the world suddenly started spinning so fast. I thought it was an isolated case. I was still able [...]

Mother’s Day

First of all, I don’t mean to be a douche. I practically skipped Mother’s Day in the Philippines and did not get to greet family and friends over there until today, which is already a Monday over there. I had a 5-hour lunch with a grade school friend at Tannourine, a Mediterranean restaurant, and tried [...]

Love to All the Mommies From Mommy C

And so we welcome the merry month of May. It was hot outside, somewhere in the high 80’s. It’s the kind of weather you’d love to have when you’re building sandcastles or throwing Frisbees. Mother’s Day is just around the corner. I guess it goes without saying that I’m feeling crappy as Sunday approaches. How [...]

Blinks: Lollipop

It will be a perfect mesh for our love for writing and pictures, be it a one-word title, a simple caption or a photo-essay. Enjoy! *** photo: Ms C post processing: Ms B taken: October 2009, [...]

The Weekend with Family

So….I am having a hard time following the Captain Awesome birthday post. I have all these dumb ideas, but I don’t want to ruin my online reputation. LOL Anyway, I want to say thanks to all those who sent greetings through my Facebook, Captain Awesome’s Facebook, Twitter, text messaging and email. Rest assured that Captain [...]

Movers and Shakers

I am honestly too tired and too busy to blog. We spent almost the entire weekend moving stuff from Ms B and Chef’s old apartment to their new house! I was there when she moved in to the apartment 5 years ago, back when we were young(er) and she was starting a career with this [...]

Cybertechnology

Well, I don’t know if there’s really such a term. I’m writing the draft on Word and the red underline appeared. I am, however, sticking to the title. Captain Awesome has social network accounts. The first one was Friendster, which I created years back when having your infants have social network accounts was all cute. [...]

Instant Messaging Concert

Okay, so I thought I’d blog something, err, big, but I got held up by my lovely Little Princess on Skype. I find it really divine that both Um and I grew up in creative environments. There are artists, unsung poets and lyricists, writers, musicians from both our families. It’s not very surprising, then, that [...]

2 Minutes

The thing I love about the kind of out of town trips that Um, the kids and I go to is that we’re pulled away from civilization. No phone signals, no wifi, no cable TV. We do carry our iPods with us, though. We’re a family of music junkies. Once again, irony humors me as [...]
