mother thinks that because dad taught vincent the physio how to glue down floorboards @ his place, we got a dinner invite to his and kat jie jie's house last night! actually, the previous post was about him, too. find it http://embluekirby.blogspot.com/2011/06/vincent-physio.html.
earlier, lisa had come to gimme a shower @ like 5pm, not 4pm, because the poor thing was having exams still. afterwards, i only got less than 1/2 my yummy sausage bun for arvo tea, coz mother said we had to be @ their place by 6:30.
lisa took me once to the loo before she got to leave early, and dad tootled us off to where they live, somewhere in calamvale.
both kat jie jie and vincent the physio met us @ the door. i apologised for not being able to take my shoes off (i can't walk without my AFO) then went inside, after stamping both feet several times on the floor first, to shake off any excess dirt. originally, i took a seat @ the dining table, but then i noticed a keyboard @ the other end of the room, and seeing as kat jie jie was gonna take mother on a tour of the house (vincent the physio had already disappeared somewhere with dad), i asked could i please go and play that while they toured the house. then i played some scales, some christmas carols, just random stuff. vincent the physio wandered over and told ela to play sth too, so she obediently lifted onto the keys and thunked out several notes for him.
when dinner was called, kat jie jie wandered over and ordered, "yau sir, walk with emily over to the dining table." we, like two little good children, complied. :P
i got about two half bowls of rice for dinner. yummy, kat jie jie made chicken and black fungi! earlier, i had teased vincent the physio, "oi, mate, are you only inviting us over for dinner so you can poison me?" but he'd just smirked and said, "kat jie jie cooked almost everything; i only cooked the fish." but, during dinner, he suddenly ordered, "em, gimmee your plate, i'll give you some fish." o_O i thought, "oh no, is this my last meal on earth?" :P
after dinner, they cleared the plates away, and i, having nothing to do, dropped ela onto the table and started trying to pronate her down flat. not much success last night, but i'll keep practising today and toms.
mother took me once to the bathroom and, on the walk back, pointed out to me how cool and furnished their house was. they've even got an aquarium full of fish! and a walk-in pantry! lol, that's the first time i've heard of walk-in pantries, i've only heard of walk-in wardrobes before! :P i had a joke to vincent the physio, "hey, mate, are you and kat jie jie planning to give birth to a whole soccer team? how come you've got that many chairs around your dining table?" :P
and there was even desert! kat jie jie made some kinda chocolate pudding thing! when you dug into the cake, there was actually gooey chocolate floating into the ground! for some reason, mother declined (you know how she is, one slice of plain white bread is too salty for her and one bowl of plain white rice is too sweet for her :P), but father ordered i give her two mouthfuls of mine. no biggie, i'm not entirely a fan of dark chocolate, hey. but much thanks to kat jie jie who kindly poured me a glass of milk. :) see, i believe that chocolate must always be accompanied by a glass of milk! :D dad had brought along this fruit platter: apple, rockmelon, mandarin and pineapple. i fell in love with the toothpick dispenser, though - you pressed a button and a toothpick would pop out! but don't press it too enthusiastically and the toothpick FLEW out! :P
throughout dinner, the AFL was playing, but vincent the physio/someone changed to channel ten, where transformers was showing! so i wandered over there and crashed on the couch and enjoyed several minutes of that, before mother decided that 'twas time we headed home. that was around 9pm. but i shook hands with vincent the physio and said my sincere thanks to him and kat jie jie for the lovely meal. in return, kat jie jie gifted me that cool toothpick dispenser! :D meaning i've asked mother please to buy me some chewy choc chip museli bars to eat, coz only then will i get stuff stuck all through my teeth and require the service of toothpicks! XD
next post here ... umm ... should be in the next few days ... there's something i wanna write about concerning sisability parking permits ... anyways, until then!
cheers,
em. ^^
