Yes, I’ve got a new pet and his name is Charlie. I was at a pet store this afternoon to look for some new goodies for Sisi but Charlie, who was only “the cocker spaniel” couple of hours ago totally captured my heart. I just had to get him and I did, within 5 minutes :)

Charlie lazing on the couch.

He’s only 3 months old, boisterous and very affectionate. Scared the crap out of Sisi, but I’m hoping they will become firm friends soon.

Just got him back to our place so he has to get used to a new surrounding all over again. I bought him a leash with skulls all over it, cause our Charlie keeps it real like that, just like his mommy and daddy.

Say hi to Charlie, our son :D :D :D :D

Charlie and me.

This is a long overdue post. Been delaying posting it probably because something happened immediately after the wine tasting that I was trying to systematically erase from my consciousness. Something that involved the words “projectile”, “designer bag”, “smelly” and “dry clean”. Oh well, if you can figure it out yourselves, geniuses.

Anyway, I had a pretty nice time during the wine tasting, courtesy of Wyndham Estate. It felt a little stuffy for sure, mostly because I had no idea what the wine connoisseurs were babbling about. My wine knowledge is as far as Floyd on the Food Channel goes (read: if it tastes good, drink up). I supposedly knew how to read wine labels exactly 3 years ago too, but that knowledge too was systematically erased from my memory due to situations involving the words “jumped” and “bond”.

I’ve enjoyed myself reading several blogs detailing their lives in 2008. And I’m going to do the same. I think many people would feel quite empty on the last day of 2008, probably asking themselves what they’ve accomplished in the past year? What happened in the past year, didn’t we just celebrate New Year yesterday?

And so, I’m going to list down what I’ve done that’s memorable to me in 2008. You know, so that whenever I do something in 2009, I’d make sure that it’s going to be bigger and better than 2008.

I’ve always been a fan of netbooks, those tiny laptops with screen sizes in the range of 9-10 inches. My client got me one last year as a token of appreciation for my job and I’ve been in love with it ever since. With my mobile phone as my internet modem and unlimited Maxis 3G, I thought I had one of the most portable internet setups.
