Me... crazy... why?

It's Friday and I'm finally back at work! Not that I'm such a workaholic but the poor Internet connexion at the hotel was starting to drive me nuts!

Tonight, Carolyn took me to her favorite place... Long Island Massage & Spa! As I told her, this must her new church judging by the way she preaches about it... all the time! I have to admit, the place is really really nice. The decoration, the atmosphere, the staff, the service, etc etc... It's heaven! The massage was very nice, sometimes a bit too strong, but enjoyable overall... I definitely have to learn how to say "Ouch, you're hurting me... this is much too strong... please stay away from my calves... this feels really painful..." :) Yeah, I'd say massages are not really my thing but I'll give it another shot. We even got a free drink and some sweet dumplings (made of glutinous rice with black sesame seeds) after our 1-hour treatment! Who could say no to that?

But when I arrived home, I got some bad news... my Lily is sick! I think she's got a cold but I'm not too sure about that so I'd better take her down tomorrow for a check-up! This will probably result in me saying something like "Nǐ hǎo, wǒ yǒu yīge wèn tí. Qǐng nǐ kě yǐ huàn wǒ de... then pointing at the strings... ?" which in my dreams could mean "Hello Sir, how are you today? Listen, I've encountered a problem with my guitar and I'd like you to have a quick look at it in order to tell me whether or not it can fixed and if I need new guitar strings. In this case, would you please do me the favour of replacing them by a brand new set?" but in a very doubtful Chinese actually means "Hello, I have a problem. Could you please change my... guitar strings?". Well, I guess the outcome will be the same... These strings need to come off!

Now, in order to show you how serious her illness is and how crispy and crunchy she sounds, this is me trying to massacre "Blackbird" on my poor sick Lily... Watch out for the ear damage cause it's irreversible :)


And finally, tomorrow is Nada's birthday! She'll probably kill me for that but I couldn't miss this opportunity to say "Eh oh, fais pas ta soyeuse"!!!

That's all folks! Have a good weekend!!!
