Happy Birthday to my Femme

I am lucky enough to see her beautiful smile every single day
and even more fortunate to have her as my wife.

Happy Birthday, mon amour.

Thank you for saying “Yes” to me.
Thank you for all your delicious cooking.
Thank you for helping me survive a global pandemic.
And thank you for staying by my side throughout our journey.

Je t’aime beaucoup.

1st Shot

So I got the first Covid Vaccine.

I didn’t take a Vaccine selfie but I’m letting you know anyway
because you’re a caring person
and I’m sure you want to know who had it or not.

Also got a headache a couple of minutes after.
So I got myself a large poutine to ease the pain.

Just thought you should know that too.

 

*SIDE NOTE

I just found out that in the Philippines, getting a swab test cost the public about 8,000 Pesos.
What the Effing Eff? That’s about $200!!

Imagine having your whole family tested?

My God!
Why does my Mother Land’s government always does this to its people.

Today’s Friday Five

1) Have you read more books, or fewer books, this past year than usual?
This last year? Definitely fewer. And by “fewer” I meant “none.”
But, as my friend Abbie had said, if you count reading the subtitles of shows you watched,
then, Yea! I’ve read tons!

2) What book are you reading now (or what book did you read most recently)?
-The last book I was reading was Inferno by Dan Brown. I was on it when Mom was sick and I was reading that while flying back and forth from Florida to Ontario.
Circumstances concerning everything had turned to dire so I just stopped.
I have planned on re-reading Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings.” Just because I watch the movies at least twice a year. I just always put it off because let’s face it. That monstrous of a book is a hard read.
I have also thought of finally reading “Game of Thrones” just to get the horrible taste of the last three seasons out of my mouth. Yeah, you know what I’m talking about.

3) What is the best book you read in the past few years?
-I genuinely enjoyed the Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice. Harry Potter of course. Oh and Lamb by Christopher Moore was a hoot.

4) Do you read more than one book at a time, or just one?
-Nope. I can’t. I tried. Characters were starting to crossover in my head.

5) How big is your to-be-read pile (or list)?
-I just checked my Goodreads Profile.
Ugh! 52 as of last wishlist.
