The Husband and I spent a relaxing stay in Bintan over the weekend. Well, mostly relaxing.
We, being our usual last minute selves, missed out on a couple of essentials when packing for our trip. Make that one essential...contact lenses solution.
Luckily, the staff of the resort we were staying in were all friendly and helpful and one of them offered us her personal stash to tide us over.
With that crisis averted, The Husband got too relaxed and stayed under the sun too long and is now a red lobster.
Me, being the smarter one, slapped sun block on myself. But I did it a little too haphazardly and ended up with some hand shaped lines on my back....
Maybe I'm not the smarter one after all.

I just got a new mouse!
Well the old mouse had some phantom control which I didn't know about. Sometimes, the cursor would start to move across the screen without me touching the mouse. The first few times it happened, I thought I needed new glasses. After a while, I would stare at the mouse accusingly. Then I decided it's a stupid mouse.
Since The Husband wanted to upgrade his computer too, we made a trip to Sim Lim and prepared to spend some money.
I really wanted a Mighty Mouse then. It's soooooo cute and pretty and sleek and white and...and...expensive.
It costs $88.00! For a mouse that can right click, left click, scroll up and down...and oh yah! Scroll left and right too! I heard it can scroll diagonally on a Mac but this function will not work on my computer.
Not that I want to scroll diagonally, I don't even like to scroll left and right.
So in the end I got a Logitech mouse that costs way less and can basically do the same functions, except it doesn't look as cool as the Mighty Mouse and does not have a cool name like Mighty Mouse. Doesn't matter really, since I'm not going to start introducing people to my mouse and tell them "This is my Mighty Mouse!"
They'll probably think I'm a good candidate for Woodbridge.

On another note, please help me wish Aelynna well also.
Poor Aelynna, she's having a lot of trouble with her work now and she's freaking me "waaaay out" with her wishes for being mowed down by a truck and chopping Head Cooks up.
Hopefully all things can end well and encourage her to stop freaking me out. Let's all give her our support, k?
