The Weekend Burnt

It's been quite an eventful couple of weeks.
been gng to the shipyard pretty much daily to commission a brand new system on this kiwi research vessel.
but some delays on the shipyard's part has resulted in me having to work thru this weekend so that my system is ready for sea trial by monday (hopefully).

so i'm hoping all goes on smoothly tmr n sunday.

in other news, justin n steph were married last sat at holy spirit church.
it's kinda strange how far this couple has come.
i can dare say i am one of the few ppl who knew both of them separately b4 they somehow got together.
and after years of dating each other, it's finally come to this.
and i'm happy for both of them :D

was asked to be e emcee w nat for the dinner.
was hoping to tell as many stories abt the couple but due to the schedule of the dinner, we only managed to tell 1 story abt each of them.

i think soon to come, i'll be the single dude who's always hanging out w the couples. lol.
actually u know wad, i'm ALREADY the single dude who's always hanging out w the couples. lol.
i think i'm at dat age where weddings are getting lesser but definitely hearing more news of frens being pregnant, giving birth, being pregnant again w their 2nd kid, baby showers and e whole lot.

and while on the topic of the babies, i recently went for michelle's son, isaac's full mth party.
and i met a fren from v v v long ago. the mid-90s is when i'll say.
we caught up a fair bit, staying at e party waaaaay longer than we had planned.
it's always nice to catch up w frens who u have lost touch w from long ago.

hopefully the throat will stay quiet over the next 2 days while i'm working.
been nursing a cough since last week. was much better, prolly to the point of being completely well. but suddenly a massive coughing bout last nite, made everything worse.
to e doctor i went this morning and got more meds. thankfully there was no phelgm so no antibiotics this time round. juz lozenges, cough mixture and some med to reduce the swelling from all dat coughing.
