hiya fluffy, think i'll answer your question first. my typical weekday :
wake up at noon, drink coffee-hav dat first smoke-read newspaper
1pm watch oprah winfrey on TV n eat my lunch (leftover from previous night's dinner)
2pm to 6pm combi of watch TV-nap-internet-luv e doggy-pre dinner preparation
6pm cook dinner
7pm welcome hubby back n eat dinner
8pm wash dishes-clean doggy's toilet
9pm combi of watch TV-internet-luv e doggy-enjoy hubby
12am hubby goes to bed
12am-2am combi of supper-watch TV-read books
break frm normal routine :
"in sales line" friends pick me up for lunch or they jus drop in for visit. they luv to use my place as "eat snake" hideout cos so cosy n relaxing. they nap, smoke, pig out, talk cock (apparently i'm a gd counsellor).
once a week when food n household stuff runs out, we go grocery shopping n eat dinner out.
n there's always household chores to do. i operate e washing machine n dryer twice a week n fold e clean laundry thereafter. i sweep e floor w magiclean wiper once a week. mop e whole flat once a month. bath e dog every 2 weeks. clean e bathroom on adhoc basis. (hubby does e ironing once a month n scrub e toilet bowl when it gets really gross). yep my flat's a pig sty! visitors r advised to wash their black gritty feet n maybe take a shower b4 they leave.
weekends : i reserve sat/sun as "niang jia" day. i luv hangin out w my parents. i am a true daddy's lil girl. sometimes, we hav picnic at east coast, visit SPCA, jalan jalan nature parks. but most times, we jus stay in n chill. i luv ganging w my dad n teasing my "blur" mum, playing w e pets (always bring my dog over to visit their dog n cat), watching my dad play snooker, lookin at my mum paint, going tru my dad's latest "interesting" website finds...etc. both doggie n i hav e "yi yi bu se' feelin when its time to leave. so different from most of my friends. they couldn't wait to live on their own. my parents had to "chase" me out (dats another story).
hubby will spend sat/sun(sometimes both days) playing golf w his "kakis" in jb; they all join club there as its much cheaper than in singapore. i hav never tagged along. i mean wat i do there? if u dont play, e club wont allow u on e links. n i dont fancy doing e other club activities like swimming, sauna by myself. hubby keep asking me to bring along a girlfriend but till now, i'm too passive to arrange anything. rather stay at home w doggie or visit parents.
friends always go "so lucky, i also wan" when they learn of my "not working" status but i believe dat non of them can tahan such "zho bo" life forever. as a break ok lah.
in return for tis "dream life", i hav to sacrifice life's lil luxuries. we watch our spending very carefully cos single income family in singapore not easy. poor hubby mus suffer w me, lowering his expectations n being contented w lowered living standards. most our peers frm uni days drive nice cars, live in condos, travel a lot. all these "hardship" so he can b w his "dream girl". he was actually on e way to more comfy life, having purchased ec w his ex when i appeared in his life again.
to tane : so u c i am definitely not tai tai, rite?

to dollfin : turned 30 last jan. u? think most of people here like younger hor?
to october : ask me specific questions better. i try squeeze out interesting titbits. from my long long post above, u can prob gather dat i like to write n got plenty of spare time. once i signed up as writer for a school publication, remembered its was of arty farty genre. i was given e topic "surrealism". e actual writing i can handle but e research! handed in dat one piece n immediately quitted.
