stomachache.

March 17, 2007

it's a happy day today.

i've finished all what i ought to do. still mommy ria is on the road. she's finishing some errands.

happy…happy… still have time to have a second round of sleep.  

what shall i tell you? hmmm.. oh, yeah!

yesterday was a great day. 

it started with laughter and ended with stomachache and "locked-jaw" because of , still, laughter.

we went to calamba, laguna for the pre-nuptial photoshoop of sir darwin and ma'am ingrid. a polite and very kind couple. the astonishing site of ayala greenfields provided the background for the photoshoot. digicon team was on time. yes…yes…new life. but the couple was 2 hours late. but it was fine. we had a talk with ate jenna, whom i've met for the first time. she owns the catering group. ate jenna is an undiscovered comedienne. we did nothing but to laugh as she recalls her "journey" collecting things related to her, in her words, "future husband, hon. rep. timmy "c"."

we couldn't breathe because of continuous laughing. we thought the stories would be the end of it, not until she showed us the "album." in there are the various photos by hon.rep. timmy!!! shots taken from the net, from the newspapers…everywhere.  there are pictures with the parents, pixelated photos, and high school graduation pix! (apparently, the guy is a hard-core lasallite). we couldn't stop laughing. the album also contains plastic bags with the congressman's name on it, stickers, and literally, other things related to the guy.    

oh, i got it wrong. it's not just an album. it's a scrapbook!

when the couple finally arrived, we had to put that scrapbook aside to deal with the photoshoot.

well, nothing significant happened during the shoot; only, it rained. hahaha! we thought it would be postponed. thank  the divine, the sun still appeared after the rainfall.

when it's our time to pack things up, i received a message from tita cecille requesting me to move our 8pm meeting today at 8pm again.

it's good news especially to ate jenna.

it only meant that we could extend our kuwentuhan. 

we stayed at their cafe house located at the 5th floor of their "executive building–" the calamba executive center.

up there, we planned how are we going to contact the congressman. we also planned for the congresman's photoshoot.

oh boy, the girl is so "obsessed" with the guy. just a mention of the guy's name, she always goes nuts.

after that,

on our way back home, we planned not to pass by the skyway, since it wasn't already traffic and we were not in a rush, anyway. not until we received mimai's text.

she was in masas-greenbelt with officemates. just across them, her ex-beau and her ex-friend (the cause of their break-up) were there celebrating the latter's birthday. 

we immediately changed our minds. "to skyway!!!"  because we wanted to see this long-overdue and long-awaited moment.

we even invited some gmg people. hahhaha! only jem and mommy denz made it.

we left calamba at around 09:45. were at pasong tamo at 10:17. we flew just for this "moment."

so there… i will not tell you what happened during this encounter. but, it was all worth the rush.

i decided to sleep over at the buena-fee's residence. since it was an on-the-moment decision, i didn't bring personal stuff.

so, i had to buy disposable undies at the nearest convenient store. we were all laughing in the car by the mere thought of buying disposable undies. "they might thought i would be having wild sex, tonight!"

when we were at the store, we found this pack, and grabbed it. jax didn't want to prolong my embarassment. but she said, "mamaya, hindi pa mag-register ang price. mamaya tanungin pa at isigaw kung ano yung item." we were laughing hard.

lo and behold.

the price didn't  register at the POS. "tol," called the cashier, "magkano 'tong siopao!" jackie almost rolled on the floor laughing. 

i couldn't hold myself either.

when we reached the car, that was the time we erupted to laughter. we told the story to mommy ria and mimai. we were all laughing out load. literally. then, i opened the packaged. picked one of the disposable undies which resembled a towelette one could see in a chinese restaurant. the "shoughter" (shout + laughter), probably, was heard outside. jax couldn't drive properly; lest, breathe. when i unrolled the undies, it was like a shower cap with two extra holes! i even wore it on my head.  jax could no longer look at me. she said she couldn't laugh hard any more. her stomach was starting to tighten. 

hahahahhaha!

well, those are the things happy people do when they smell like grasses, when they are  tired, and when they have to be in a rescue to a friend who, for the first time, has seen her "exes."

*sparkles!
