OK... I thought it did go through but I was wrong... let me start all over again.... Should I say that I started my previous chicka with hmm did I have tea or coffee ?? the answer was decaf coffee..."gathering thoughts" Ok..Ok.. I got it... where were we ?? yesterday Sunday morning we went treaking to Philadelphia to sample the Chart House Brunch btw last time we were in NJ, Kuya NoNo, Miss Mela and my favorite godson ( again big boy na siya :o( not a baby anymore as he reminded me several times that weekend) took us for brunch in Weehawken,NJ branch of Chart House and I tell you we had a bountiful brunch for a very good prize. I never realize till then that they have brunch since I only know Chart House for Steaks dinner and it is the best when you have a date who'll foot the bill hehehehe which again stops (meaning the dining for steaks in Chart House) when 'namay introduced Arthur's in Hoboken ( where Frank Sinatra was born 'namay might add}!! YUM!!! very good steak esp'ly with an order of a large glass of Birch beer! Anyway when we got to the Chart House here in Philadelphia it was a bit disappointing... their brunch is a one entree brunch with unlimited mamosa,pastry and salad bar. But for a difference of $6.00 I would rather pay the little extra buck and all the crab cakes I want.. all the egg benedicts and omelet!!! And the pastry was a let down!!! So next week we will sample the brunch at Hibachi which is located on the same strip with the same view of the NJ penetentiary !!!! hahahahha
Ok.. movies.. I got nothing to tell since all I have seen or we have seen was the 1st season of the L Word. It was a very cute and interesting show esp'ly if you are touched by the ray of the Rainbow you would know what I mean and my goodness 'namay is in denial but she is obssessed with Shane one of the cute character in the show but she won't admit it and it's OK... . just never saw her like that before.. well I think I did at one time but then we don't want to discuss that part of our lives anymore hahahahaha Well I guess that's it for nw.. hoepfully this time this would be here next time I come back :o) Snow forecast tomorrow !! SHould I stay or should I go now.. la..la..la.. :o)

Cold tea...
Well it's that bewitching hour again... Yes, am done playing Canasta and I thouhgt it would be nice to update you what happend over the weekend. Well, we went to visit my inaanak (godson) in NJ and after seeing him made me realize two things (well maybe three things) that one he is getting bigger and not my favorite baby anymore but a big boy as He (Dean) corrected me from time to time and two that I am out of the loop when it comes to kids fashion with shows and toys.. atleast the two things I brought him was still in his "list" of toys!!! Well the 3rd thing I'll still share with you... that I wish I have my own.. there I have said it.. but I have accepted the fact already so let's move on with the rest of my chicka (story). We got there late Saturday afternoon and drove straight to Chinatown in NY, had a feast at Mr. Tang, the family favorite restaurant for peking Duck and Dungeness crabs. Soon after, we went to this Tea house where they gave us the wrong order but it was OK since I was so full to care. And after that.... Mela my favorite kumare and denstist decided to take us to this pastry shop so we can buy some stuff to take home for dessert on Sunday ( which did not materialize since we did eat the sweet stuff that same night as asoon as we got home)! It was refreshing to be with family. And so we got home... after some time past... Mela and Dean had to go night night since it was way way way pass their bedtime it was 12:30AM, then three of us headed to the basement to have a movie marathon! SO HERE'S THE SCOOP!!!! YES THERE IS A REASON TO MY MADNESS!!! First we watch "Saw" it was so mind bugling that am still in awe just thinking about it it is a MUST SEE!! Go On rent it buy it just GO SEE IT!!! By the time we were ready to watch the second movie "The Cellular" Kuya NoNo backed out... time for meds and went night night too this was around 2:45AM about the second movie.. it was ok.. but not as good as "Saw". The plot was simple just a typical scenario but it was the technology of the cellular phone and how we are so attached to it was depicted in the movie that made it so interesting. So for the 2 movie it is 4 thumbs up.. mine and Potsie's!!! Well that's all for this morning folks... am out... well not that out am semi out hahahahahhaa if you know what I mean!

Almost a spilled Tea...
Finally... out of 3 rented movies again ... a Big "no" (meaning don't rent OK !!) for the movie Tiptoes and Wicker Park, The Eye, a foreign movie was a good one it is a bit scary but it didn't bother me that much since I was watching it with Potsie... Potsie on the other hand was Terrfied with a capital T ... well I can say it did scare me a bit since when her mom called we both jump when the phone rang. Anyway... part of The Eye was Ok a 3.5 from a rating of 1 to 5 1 being the lowest rank. But the Eye 2 was also OKI but it is more of a comedy. I guess it does seems funny for anybody who really don't understand the Chinese-Japanese traditions.. traditions of reincarnation. "white" books believe in reincarnation but they picture it as a good thing.. Here in the movie Eye 2 they showed it as an scary thing and since Joey which was the main character in the movie was portrayed as a modern woman so she was out of touch of their tradtions and it seems all to scary for her and thats what they capitalized on. Where can you find that a woman who jump from a bldg fell and still alive and since the dead didnt want her to die .. Joey manage to climb again the bdlg and jump for the 2nd time.. and finally the dead woman said.. I cant let you die, I beg you, I want to forget everything. So finally Joey decides to let her reincarnate through her baby.. But Geeshh.. would Joey the mother ever forget all the scar and broken bones she experienced ??? Ironinc huh! BTW the dead woman was really the wife of Joey's Boyfriend who jump infront of an LRT.. well I dont know what they call it in Hongkong but in the Phils... they call it LRT in NJ the famous Path train... OK she jump bec. the husband was cheating on her with Joey and at the end Joeys baby would be the dead wife !! There the whole story of The Eye 2... hmmmm I have a couple more hours to play canasta and tomorrow AM I am "call in" for the Happy place.. hopefully Debra won't need me and at 3:30PM back to MHP I go.... till next time!...
Post Valentine anxiety...

If ever you are bored and decides to rent some movies to watch PLS! and I mean PLEASE never rent Wicker Park no TipToes this movies has two Good looking leading man and beautiful leading ladies but the story is not even worth enough money to buy you a stale doughnut from 711 !!! Shoot I wasted my canasta time for those two movies. Hmmmm thank god am calling in again for the second day ...Yes..Yes.. darling ( just like Edna saying it) I called out yesterday Valentines day since I was experiencing severe twitching (in filipino sakit sa bato) in my neck.. nothing serious just a sign that I needed a day off, a couple of days off actually...

I found out yesterday that those skin tags on my neck were skin Virus!! Yuck!!! It does loook ugly once they start multiplying and so finally my friend Lourdes who also is a Happy person like me well.. it was not laid on the ground but you know if someone is happy !!?? are you happy??? Well anyway Yes I should blame Lourdes she was the one who introduce me to the world of beautification with pain. Hopefully their promises are true in 2 weeks I would look like Wynona Rider ... hahahha the moving truck Rider maybe !!! Hmmmm but look at the bright side by the time I see all the princesses again I'll be as pretty as them.... Well I guess that's all for now folks!
