(Almost) Restful Sleep

Realise I've been sleep 6 hr blocks. :P 11-5am, then 5.30 to 11.30am. Would just wake up automatically, go piss, drink water and do strange things. I flossed my teeth this morning at 5. There was just this piece of gunk that just wouldn't be dislodged. U know that feeling when u shut your jaw, there's a teeny weeny bit in between the molars right at the back of your teeth (unless u haven't any). After flossing, went to admire the living being next to me, unconscious to the strange occurences around the room. He's been working real hard, now with the added responsibility of being a soon-to-be father, he's up two notches!

Had a really late lunch, and managed to have a decent conversation with our domestic help. It was quite funny. She was speaking in Bahasa with broken english, while me in English accompanied by equally broken bits of bahasa. We spoke about having a baby, her baby, her loving Chinese husband (*gasp* the old maid said her hubby ill-treated her and ran away with someone else), showed me his photo, as well as a photo of her with an aussie guy who wanted to marry her but she said no (oooh!!), and about how she wants to 'hantam' the old maid for spreading rumours about her. This old maid now sports golden hair (she was spotted at marina square during hari-raya by a relative's maid) and has been spewing nonsense nonstop. Ours is soooo pissed. She also did say that my MIL said that 'if' i have a baby, they'll get another maid to take care of the baby while she manages the house. My mil dussen want to break the news to her yet, she dussen want her telling the whole neighbourhood like the last one did - but now she knows. She did mention that if i have a baby, then another maid would come along, then she would work a shorter no. of yrs it seems. Or was it a longer no. of years? Hmm... dunno.

Watched Practical Magic - Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman. The opening song was gorgeous - the kind which makes cheesy wedding videos a bestseller. Well, I felt the bad boyfriend was quite lame to an otherwise not-too-bad story. The ending was pretty predictable - who would expect Sally to go to jail for killing a dracula? Hmm... perhaps - that would then be the twist to the story.

Gosh, another couple of hours before Ben arrives home. The room is still in an utter mess and I am too lazy to clean it up. Gotta copy stuff from C: drive over before the 2k4 benji bug bites me. :P Hmmm... they said near the end of the 3rd trimester, preggos would normally go into a cleaning frenzy. How nice. :) I wanna go swimming!
