Pot bellies and panties 

Bizarre sight of the morning: Dad walking around without a shirt, after some extensive work on his plants in the front yard. Apart from the pot belly, he's looking pretty good for a guy pushing 62. Better get gardening then...

Most of the afternoon was spent copying songs from my Beach Boys CDs, to be then burned onto those "vinyl" blank CDs I bought. I could just burn them straight from the source CDs, but I'm just trying to make sure the blanks to go to waste in case something happens when ripping the tracks.

Went out in the evening to pick up something at Avie's house in Kebayoran Baru (thanks for the postcard, Nad!), and as it turned out, it was time for the Leeds-Liverpool match. Ended up going to the Sportsman, this bar in Blok M where expats go to watch games. This was my second time, so I guess I went there 'cause I liked the atmosphere the first time around - especially because I get to swear a lot. And there was plenty of F-word usage during this match, which unfortunately only ended up in a draw, thus leaving me still waiting for the first victory I'll witness at one of those bars. But it was a great match, one of what those commentators usually refer to as "a great advertisement for the English game".

So yes, it was exciting. Excitement means lots of shouting (and swearing). Lots of shouting (and swearing) means one's voice gets worn out. One's voice gets worn out quickly when one is suffering from the flu. And so, my voice is pretty shot at the moment. But ah well, it's not as if I'm Barry White or Brian McKnight, where bras and panties go airborne with every syllable I utter. "Cough." "Whooosh! Flop!"*
