update

Beloved Cubaois took 2 cellphones as offering for the rain. One while in ambivalent ardent prayer inside the Church (sacred ground my*%$) and the other while walking (albeit spaced out) along P. Tuazon, that corner between SM and Alimall…And rain it did. Cool (literally) weather, great for snoozing. And anything generating heat. [Rationalized loss with maybe it was a father scrounging for ailing daughter's meds, until Dr. B. enlightened me -- "pinang-shabu yun!"]

[[Postscript: was entertaining buying a 2nd hand or downgrade a model for the new new phone, but nah, decided not to anticipate loss, will rage against the possibility -- and got the same spanking new model! Game plan is to remain positive and trustingly loving the world. At the same time will chain the dang thing to my neck, install gps for tracking, surgically implant a microchip as alarm with radius of 5 feet of separation and off to NTC to have the stolen ones blocked! I am now again the proud owner of a spanking new phone. See, in dire need (as in my impoverished state) the loaves do multiply *wink*]]

~~~ooo~~~

‘Was waiting for Pinoy Meets World (on GMA) to come on but alas Van Damn on instead. Two weeks ago had hilarious Belly and Kuki (spellcheck pls.) touring Laos, a serendipitous find for the cable-less. Made me almost almost appreciate not having cable to turn to. Riveting, laugh-out-loud, wit and gag and toilet and drag. More more more!

~~~ooo~~~

Added to collection of scars [first two from caving in Samar during first quarter of the year; second pair from Vito's binyag, rushing, dived into pavement and skinned both knees, slowly turning into monstrous keloid brown patches]. Now sporting a bigger-than-the-old-piso wound courtesy of an amiable Hanoi motorcycle driver. My bad really, had to stand so close to that hotashell muffler. Likely to be infected now from jumping into not-so-clean Halong Bay. Festering festering soon to pus. Pistachio ooze in the making.Yummmeeee! Hehehe. Battle scars my uglies…but ahhh…you should see the cave, swim in it and; rush and run to a christening party for the bite of the cake and welcome new life and; dive into a not-so-clean bay…and float awhile staring at the sky. Ready get set go!
