Perhaps my celeb crush Keanu Reeves has his reasons why he prefers to stay in hotels and literally live out of the suitcase. This is what I did over the weekend: gather all my kids in a taxi for a very short 10-minute or so ride to this nearby hotel. We may have stayed only overnight but the break was exactly what I needed to do the things I wanted to do: not go to the market and plan the menu ( it was a given that checking in meant eating out), give the maid a break from her domestic duties, and simply get out of the domestic ennui we were in.

Blogger’s Block
I don't think it's a very long absence but the inevitable thing has happened to me the past week: experiencing a bad case of "blogger's block."

Un-Friendstered! & Other Lapses in Etiquette
Two persons deleted me from their Friendster accounts the past two months which caught me by surprise. One did so mysteriously, the other told me why. I really don't think I should be losing sleep over some people who have profound attitude problems but this is exactly the reason why I think Friendster sucks in the first place. Why should they inform me about the new features they've added, who's uploaded new photos and who are celebrating their birthdays hhetcetera, but leave me at a loss as to when I've been removed from somebody's circle.
