I miss my church...
in Hong Kong. I didn't realize that I'm actually in their blog ring, so I've posted the link on the right, and hopefully, they won't notice that it's many months overdue.
I shouldn't have said that I'm happy to move back and forth between apartments. That is a falsehood. I keep threatening not to return to the old place, and my Kazu keeps bribing me with promises of shoes, knowing that I'd just dig in my heels if he tried to force me. He's a smart man, and a bloody good husband.
We landed a big client today; our biggest ever. Kaz will be shooting an ad campaign for a major computer hardware company, advertising their new and fabulous multi-media card. If we do well, there are two more projects in the works! I'll be praying about this one!!!
It's tax season, so I've been distracted and focussed on filing my GST and income tax, and not so focussed on Easter. This weekend, I really need to devote some time to thinking about Jesus and what He means to me. I know He loves me, I know I love Him, but my faith has been stagnating because I can't get over the things that have hurt me, performed by people who used His name as justification for their actions. I hope I get over it soon. Maybe I'll go deeper on this topic later.
For now, I'm waiting for my sister's arrival. Hopefully she isn't bringing her murderous cats, because I secretly live in fear of their scythe-like claws and 6-inch fangs. They also scale curtains to ceiling height and tip over vessels of liquid in the night.
Kazu saw the fulfillment of a cherished dream this week, as we've purchased a barbecue. Husband, the lover of meat and smoky flavour, is beside himself. We put it together ourselves, and Kaz has been marinating ziploc bags of meat for three days in anticipation of the BBQ's inaugural run on Saturday, with a champagne toast and the attendance of our friends. I pray that we've assembled it correctly!
Side note: I wanted so badly to bake a cake in the shape of a lamb, and I pranced all over the city (in heels) looking for a cake pan. The closest thing I found was a bunny pan (how secular) in Williams Sonoma, and do you know how much it was???? $50!!! I can probably BUY 10 bunny cakes for that much! Or I can shape a bunny out of fois gras and coat it with truffle flakes, with caviar for eyes and for the tail.... (ten minutes of brainstorming with my Mom)... marzipan handcrafted by the Queen. Yes. I'm going to go now.
