lobstered-out

i can't believe this, but for the first time in my life, i am sick of eating lobster! my brother went on a lobster trip on roger's boat yesterday (it was opening day for lobster yesterday). they limit out within the first couple of traps; they each caught the limit, which is 7 lobsters each! the biggest lobster my brother brought home was around 8 pounds! anyways, it was good eating!

at*tah*tude!

at age 3 and a half, aaron is starting to give us attitude! he's starting to talk back to us when we try to discipline him and when i tell him to do something, he'll often respond with, "ok! ookaay!" i'm not sure how to deal with attitude; i need to google this.... got advice, anyone?

on another note, aaron is starting to learn how to use my itouch! he knows how to scroll with his finger to watch monster trucks and garbage trucks on youtube! next thing you know, he's going to want his own itouch for christmas!

oh, btw... whoohoo!!! lol

poor bambi

boy, talk about being absent! it's been a crazy week for the financial market. so can you imagine the anxieties at the office?!? watching the stocks going down and hearing all the speculations and wondering how much worst it can get.... it still amazes me on what's happening to these big companies.... well, i hope it only gets better and for people to learn from all of this!

anyways, i got to take a little weekend trip to bridgeport (a little fishing town 45 minutes north of mammoth) last weekend. it was a nice relaxing trip. the boys enjoyed themselves. g even caught some fish! trout... blah. well, the highlight of the trip was our drive up. we left around 7:30 pm and we gave martin a ride to silver lake(?). on our way back to the main highway, g encountered a deer on the road. g couldn't swerve 'cause there was a lake to the right of us so we side swept the deer. we just heard a big bang on the side of our car and continued driving. my biggest concern at the time was the deer; i was hoping that it didn't have to suffer. the next morning we finally realized the damage the deer made on our mdx - a decent size dent on the side door and snagged deer hair!! ew... the funny part of this though, is that when i told this to my mom and my oldest brother, they both responded, "did you bring some deer home?" i don't know if my brother was serious or not, but my mom was totally serious! (btw, my mom's a vegetarian. haha)

k, gotta do some work... on a friday night. how sad. =(

6 drinks too many

on saturday my neighbors had a block party. there were lots of kids, toys, and food on albee avenue! the adults even broke out alcoholic drinks (i'm sure our hoa didn't approve that =p). after 6 drinks, i thought i had a pretty good buzz until i got home and that's when it kind of hit me. i forced myself to upchuck before going to bed. then in the middle of the night, i woke up having the need to upchuck again. that one was awful; it was one of those acidic ones. ew.... after all these years, i thought i would learn my lesson and avoid tequila; even if it's patron. so for sure, NO MORE TEQUILA!

good times.... lol

"fire-rhea"

the other day, while aaron sat on the potty to do number 2, i noticed he had diarrhea. so i told him he had diarrhea. he gave me a confused look so i explained to him what diarrhea is. he asked various questions about it and came up with one that made me laugh. he asked, "fireman have fire-rhea?"

yes, firemen have "fire-rhea."
