I know no one cares what I had for lunch but…

July 2, 2008

 

Look at what I had for dinner!

 That is a steak. THAT IS MEAT! 

I’d like to thank my girl for bringing me to that wonderful place up in the hills of Tagaytay. Really nice remuneration considering that I had to drive. Went to really nice places that day with her and her family. And it was nice and cool as well. It rained when we were getting out of Manila.

No actually, its not even compensation for services rendered! Since we used their car as well. I guess it really does pay off to be a domesticatedman .Thanks doll I had a great time because: 

1. I drove

2. I ate

3. I didn’t have to sweat. 

I drove

I like to drive, it gets me places or nowhere at all. Driving around in circles is fine with me as long as I’m behind the wheel without any traffic in front or behind me. I like cars, I don’t really know why. I spend most of my travel time standing up or sitting down in public transport nowadays. 

I ate

Eating for me is an adventure. Unlike my good friend Marco who so many years ago told me that “eating is a spectator sport” I find eating a highly engaging activity. Food engages the five senses, individually and collectively, and the understanding behind each sense. To appreciate food one must not be merely able to eat, one must be able to understand and appreciate. Eating for sustenance is an animalistic act, eating for enjoyment is human. A caveat would be when you take the gustatory adventure to the extreme, it becomes gluttony and will end up killing you. 

I didn’t have to sweat

Sweating dehydrates people. Sweating is uncomfortable for me. Lastly sweating the sweat of sloth is a mortifying experience. I find it good to sweat when I’m active, when I’m engaged in a physical activity not just standing under the sun or choking inside a room. Sweating is good, yes, but sweating because its just hot is not. 

 

The final reason is a cheesy reason. I had a fun time because I with my girl and her family! I was also able to go see my friends in the church where the wedding of our friend was held and the reception afterward. Good drive, good weather, good food and great company. What a day and a night.
