Hindi Nakakatuwa

Since last week, the guys (guys = husband and husband's guy friends) have been planning for a poker night at our house. It's all set. All the husbands will stay at our house and all the wives and kids will stay at the other friend's house, just within the same village.

Everyone's supposed to meet at 6:30 PM.

Come 5:00 PM, I got a message from my husband saying that the our girl friend, aka Wife #2, the owner of the house where the wives are supposed to stay, made other plans already and will not be home tonight. No house for the wives.

Damn.

May tawag dun eh... ahh, hmm... INDYAN! Hmmmp! Or amnesia?

We girls already planned this before, we will just do a chick flicks marathon. So me and wife # 3 are stuck now, she couldn't get a baby sitter in such a short notice. I just told wife #3 that it's okay, she'll just stay home with her kids and I'll find something to do myself.

I did went out, window shopped. Until my husband called me to pick up some cups for them. Therefore, I had to go back home. Too late to go out tonight as I don't have anything else to do outside.

It's not like Manila here, no Starbucks where you're safe to just chill on your own, bring your laptop and all that. Malls close up pretty early too, PLUS there's nothing interesting in the malls. Just earlier I was walking alone on the sidewalk by the mall and a man was following me whispering stuff like "hi, have a good night." Creepy!

I have just locked myself in the bed room. I am pretending not to be here as all the guys downstairs are enjoying their poker night.

Times like these, I miss the Manila malls, I miss my kaladkarin friends.

I miss my real friends.

Okay, just wanted to get this out of my system. I'm gonna go back to bed now and watch When in Rome and Whip It, with junk food, pizza and soda on the side. Sayang hindi pa malamig ung Red Horse beer.


P.S.
So... this is how it feels like to be grounded. :P

Earlier today, I was in such a good mood that Friday is done and the weekend is here. I just left my work desk and was heading to my car when someone from behind called me...

Tactless Co-worker: Kayan!!!
Kayan: Yep?
Tactless Co-worker: Tinutubuan ka na ng bilbil o. Ang laki diyan sa may bandang tagiliran.
Kayan: Ah ganon ba, eh baka kasi ang higpit ng belt ko naiipit?
Tactless Co-worker: Sus! Nagjustify ka pa ah.
Kayan: Ganon talaga, lahat ng bagay may explanation.

Bwiset! Ganda na sana ng week-ender ko eh. Pwet ka!
