Aunt Rose makes me evil (and childish)

After my last entry, I'm convinced that it's fully justifiable slacking off for this entry,... pure rant and no photos.

Just like a mythical werewolf transforms every full month, when Aunt Rose visits, my predatory instinct surfaces, on the look out for a prey to insult/ vent my frustration. Can't seem to find much fault from the Cow today,....

A short conversation with Pea, it seemed that the person who's been making random comments on her most recent status on Facebook turned out to be her class' outcast. It doesn't take more prompting to find out that he's in fact the same numbwit who kept insisting that my sis had been having a crash on him back in school. A nerd with an ego too big for his head.

Pea was curious as to why I'm even entertaining his replies, when he clearly clings onto the slightest bit of attention given by anyone with an opposite reproductive system to his.

I've found my candidate. Thanks to this stunots, it made me feel like a class bully... ending the stream of spamming on Pea's status with sarcasm. Certainly the point was made, the thread ended after my last full stop.

Did I feel childish? Extremely. He just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. But at least that puts the Cow back into the safe zone, and I felt better releasing some stored frustration after all the cramps. It's not easy being Venus.

Hopefully this is not one of those karma thingy that comes back and bite me... This is the second person I've "offended" in such manner, all thanks to Aunt Rose.

Taipei Dogs

' Taurus are reliable, focused, practical, and usually right on time.'

Practical definitely a yes, judging that this batch of photos were backlogs from last Christmas, I'm not so certain about my other horoscope traits.

Taipei is an absolute heaven for dogs, owners being city dwellers love to bring their pooches everywhere they go. They get all the oohhhs and arhhs from passerby, many of canines gained frame overnight with people asking for a snapshot with them. All it takes is one person pointing the camera at any one of pooches to gain instant attention. As I found out, the moment after these photos were taken, the admirers just flocked in like bees to honey.

Next to Switzerland, this is the second country I've visited where dogs roamed freely off-leash. Many a times we thought we saw a stray, the next moment the owner turns up...

Once we saw a pooch in the wee hours of the morning, sitting by a road. Just as we wanted to grab it, it strolled back around the corner, down the alley back into this shabby looking shophouse.

Dog heaven it is, where they roam carefree.

Much unlike where we are at staying at the moment. Just this afternoon I was chasing and hunting down two little brats who threw stones at Yumi. She goes bonkers when the postman and garbage collector comes too close to the gate, and there she is sitting in the porch staring at these two monkeys throwing stones at her... and she's still smiling and wagging her tail. One might say that she's naive, but I choose to prefer the word "stupidity".

Hopefully those two won't be doing that anytime soon, while I'm still holding grudge against them. If not, with my last straw, I'll soon be dealing directly with their parents.

My 1st flying lesson

Six in the morning, lying on the couch with an ice pack on my forehead.

Had my first flying lesson, it didn't turn out well.

It was just turning 6 am, still wide awake from the whole night of overdosing with caffeine. How about a game of chase with Yumi. Wahooooo, genius, what a great idea..... not.

Half way around the living room, this genius tripped and flew head on towards the dog crate. The only thought that crossed my mind was, Ohhhhhhh, shittttt!!!!

When cow finally got to the scene of the accident, all he saw was this lifeless body collapsed on the dog bed next to the crate.

I had had my first flying lesson and I crashed horribly. Aftermath, huge bruises on my forehead and knees, swelling and blood on my nose bridge. As I sat up reeling from the shock and pain, Yumi came over, not to comfort me, but to get me to throw her toy so she could fetch it. Cow took it from her and threw it away, to get the insensitive dog out of my sight. But none the less she came back happily, toy in her jaws. Only to sit down and lean up against me, chewing happily at her toy.

Lying down with an icepack pressed to my face, Yumi is totally oblivious to the incident despite being the only eye witness... she's happily using my belly as her play table for her favourite chew toy.

Sigh...

Venus, Mars and Jupiter

"Women are from Venus, Men are from Mars.
Dogs are from Jupiter, Cats are from the Moon."

Venus and Mars Pillow Talk

Venus getting comfortable, ready for bed.

Mars' youtube clip on his phone echoed in the bedroom.

Mars, "Dear, would you like to watch this clip with me?"

Venus mumbled, "What clip?"

Mars, "A demo on quark."

Venus, "Quartz?" (Wondering what's so interesting about stones at this time of the night)

Mars, "Ya, quark."

Venus sensing there must be some miscommunication in between, "Define quartz to me."

Mars, "Oh, it's an elementary particle and a fundamental constituent of matter. Rather interesting. Quarks combine to form composite particles called hadrons, the most stable of which are protons and neutrons, the components of atomic nuclei. ..."

Venus, "... Ahhhh alright, dear, enjoy your clip, I'm too tired." (Snore)

Venus' not a material cut out to be a scientist (though graduated with a diploma in engineering), nor is she cut out to be a mechanic (though she excel in her electrical and electronics back in school).

On the other hand, Mars' all about cars, planes, science, maths....

That might be why Venus is attracted to Mars, opposite attracts and likes repel.




Venus and Mars on the Road

Mars, "Dear, look at that XXX (random name of a car)."

Venus, "Which one? The yellow car?" (trying to spot any none protons)

Mars, "Ya, that one. It's got the XXX body kit and blah blah blah."

Venus feeling relieved,... cars comes with four wheels and could only be differentiated by colours....

In Venus' invisible pictorial book, she's now able to spot MR2, RX8, RX7, MX5, Fairlady, Scoobies, Beetles, Minis... and a few others thanks to Mars. (Pat on the shoulder for Venus)

If Venus could drive, she'd be seen in a classic Beetle or even touring around in a baby blue volkswagen van with Mars and Jupiter.

Venus' dream car is a RX7 FD Spirit R (white of course).


If Mars could have a car now, it'd be an FD Spirit R.

Mars' dream car is a triple rotor NA RX8.

Our definition to cars just amplified our differences even more.

If Jupiter could drive, it would be a van full of dog biscuits.

Jupiter's dream vehicle would be a van made entirely of chocolate... (forbidden food always taste the best). Doubt that van is going anywhere but her stomach.

Things are just way simpler with Jupiter....
