Good morning to you all! Guess what? It is Friday the best day in the working week.

Weather wise Mel will be 27 degrees and Sunny today, same as yesterday. What is your plan for the weekend guys? (ap ...

come on man, you don't ask.
do you really think of buying a present or just wait for a answer to tell you no...

Now it is morning tea and let's see what is happening here.

I guess I am a typical man who hates to guess around what a woman wants so I went directly and asked her.

The benefit of this approach is that if she said she wanted something and I bought for her. Later she cannot turn around and say no she did not like my present because I already asked her first.

On the same token the disadvantage is that by asking that is just not romantic at all. It will put women off. But I guess we have been married for a while. It is ok for me to ask. So I did it.

I don't know, me personally I am not a radio host but I do want to get a job in CCTV 5 to broadcast NBA live.

I think currently the guy who is doing the job; his name is Yu Jia.

That is my dream job cause I am a huge NBA fan. Go Celtics! Anyway I take it as a compliment. Thanks!

THE MAN RULES (SORRY IT'S A BIT LONG)
AT LAST A GUY HAS TAKEN THE TIME TO WRITE THIS ALL DOWN

  FINALLY , THE GUYS' SIDE OF THE STORY.

WE ALWAYS HEAR " THE RULES"
FROM THE FEMALE SIDE....
NOW HERE ARE THE RULES FROM THE MALE SIDE.   
THESE ARE OUR RULES!
PLEASE NOTE.. THESE ARE ALL NUMBERED "1 "
ON PURPOSE!  

1.   MEN ARE NOT MIND READERS.
(FIRST & FOREMOST RULE)

1.. LEARN TO WORK THE TOILET SEAT.
YOU'RE A BIG GIRL.. IF IT'S UP, PUT IT DOWN.
WE NEED IT UP, YOU NEED IT DOWN.
YOU DON'T HEAR US COMPLAINING ABOUT YOU LEAVING IT DOWN.

1. SUNDAY SPORTS OR NEWS, IT'S LIKE THE FULL MOON
OR THE CHANGING OF THE TIDES.
LET IT BE.

1.. CRYING IS BLACKMAIL.

1. ASK FOR WHAT YOU WANT.
LET US BE CLEAR ON THIS ONE:
SUBTLE HINTS DO NOT WORK!
STRONG HINTS DO NOT WORK!
OBVIOUS HINTS DO NOT WORK!
JUST SAY IT!

1. YES AND NO ARE PERFECTLY ACCEPTABLE ANSWERS TO ALMOST EVERY QUESTION.

1. COME TO US WITH A PROBLEM ONLY IF YOU WANT HELP SOLVING IT. THAT'S WHAT WE DO.
SYMPATHY IS WHAT YOUR GIRLFRIENDS ARE FOR.

1. ANYTHING WE SAID 6 MONTHS AGO IS INADMISSIBLE IN AN ARGUMENT.
IN FACT, ALL COMMENTS BECOME NULL AND VOID AFTER 7 DAYS.

1. IF YOU THINK YOU'RE FAT, YOU PROBABLY ARE.
DON'T ASK US.

1. IF SOMETHING WE SAID CAN BE INTERPRETED TWO WAYS AND ONE OF THE WAYS MAKES YOU SAD OR ANGRY, WE MEANT THE   OTHER ONE

1. YOU CAN EITHER ASK US TO DO SOMETHING
OR TELL US HOW YOU WANT IT DONE.
NOT BOTH.
IF YOU ALREADY KNOW BEST HOW TO DO IT , JUST DO IT YOURSELF.

1. WHENEVER POSSIBLE, PLEASE SAY WHATEVER YOU HAVE TO SAY DURING COMMERCIALS..

1.. CAPTAIN COOK DID NOT NEED DIRECTIONS AND NEITHER DO WE.

1. ALL MEN SEE IN ONLY 16 COLORS, LIKE WINDOWS DEFAULT SETTINGS.
PEACH, FOR EXAMPLE, IS A FRUIT, NOT A COLOR. PUMPKIN IS ALSO A FRUIT. WE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT MAUVE IS.

1. IF IT ITCHES, IT WILL BE SCRATCHED.
WE DO THAT.

1. IF WE ASK WHAT IS WRONG AND YOU SAY "NOTHING," WE WILL ACT LIKE NOTHING'S WRONG.
WE KNOW YOU ARE LYING, BUT IT IS JUST NOT WORTH THE HASSLE..

1. IF YOU ASK A QUESTION YOU DON'T WANT AN ANSWER TO, EXPECT AN ANSWER YOU DON'T WANT TO HEAR.

1. WHEN WE HAVE TO GO SOMEWHERE, ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING YOU WEAR IS FINE... REALLY .

1. DON'T ASK US WHAT WE'RE THINKING ABOUT UNLESS YOU ARE PREPARED TO DISCUSS SUCH TOPICS AS FOOTBALL
OR CARS.

1. YOU HAVE ENOUGH CLOTHES.

1. YOU HAVE TOO MANY SHOES.

1. I AM IN SHAPE.   ROUND IS A SHAPE!

1. THANK YOU FOR READING THIS.

YES, I KNOW, I HAVE TO SLEEP ON THE COUCH TONIGHT;
BUT DID YOU KNOW MEN REALLY DON'T MIND THAT? IT'S LIKE CAMPING.

------------------------------------------
it is a bit long ,and controversial to somebody's standard
hey at lease just treat it as a joke with some meaning...

Thanks for your advice.

See the problem is that now I am in charge for cooking cause she is taking care of my daughter.
So there is no secret of cooking anymore. She ate them all.

I think I am a good cook and she likes my food. So i guess what i want to say it may not be that special to her.

Again I appreciate your advice.

Well said brother! Sorry I assume you are a man but I am not sure. If you are not, please don't blame me.

It is a good one but it is way tooooooo long my friend. I got your point though.

Momotaba

Am I the only one having lunch break right now? Where are you guys? Day off?

it don't have to be expensive,
but a statement that u r loving her and thinking of her...

I am very sorry to be a pain. But I think it should be it doesn't rather than it don't.

I still love your idea though. No hard feelings here and we are all friends I think who happen to love English.

I wonder what if she says "oh darling, it's really not necessary."
Do you buy it? I mean what she said.

DIY a valentine's card for her. Just a simple one will do, better with a pic of her or Chloe & her. The most important part is the words that you are going to put on the card - your feelings, your love to her & the family, your appreciation etc.

How about that?

kinezox

yeah, just  back from my lunch,
see you caught my grammar mistake again...
no hard feelings, just keep going...

She said she had Chloe with her and that is enough and she did not need anything.

By the way just let you know I bought her an Ipad as her birthday gift late last year.

That is really a good idea. I have thinking of buying a card and writing something nice and hand over to her.

Also I want to take her to dinner but I am afraid she would not go cause of our budget restraint. Then in that case I will cook a good meal or maybe buy some take away.

似水华年

For me,writing some words on the card and send it to me secretly is enough~I will appreciate that he understand my efforts for our family.
If I have a daughter,I would ask nothing either.Because the child is the biggest present.

似水华年

Sure, this Valentine's Day selection reminds you that so far finding a mate has been an impossible mission for you. But on the other hand, it reminds you at least you're not linked til-death-do-you part with someone as obviously stone crazy as Tom Cruise.
HAHA~cute comment~
~~Hope every single could find the right one~~

lucky wife
many mummies look after kid(s), also do the housework

It's gloomy in Sydney today and I am waiting so much for a real SUMMER. How I miss those sunny days ! -

I am so looking forward to the weekend, but it would be so much better if it’s sunny!

All my plans of fishing/bushwalking/pick your own have been spoiled due to the recent gloomy weather. There is so much more to do on sunny days.  

It’s amazing how much the weather can affect how I feel. On rainy gloomy days, I feel depressed. On sunny days, I just feel great even though the day will be busy with many things going on at once. Maybe I am just too moody ~

I agree with your comments on daughters.
My daughter is the second sweetest thing that has happened in my life so far. I will let you guys guess what is the most sweetest thing that has happened to my life.

I am very grateful that Chloe has her mum's good looks. I mean what else can you ask for? I am a lucky and I think I know that.

Anyway have a good weekend all! Since it is the weekend. My radio broadcast will start next Monday morning. But don't hold me to it cause who knows I may sneak back in over the weekend and post something here. You never know.
Take care everyone, bye for now.

When you say like a hobo, do you mean slovenly or shabby?

The year of the Dragon is supposed to be a flamboyant year, which will set off the baby & marriage boom.
