talked to my wife today. She and her brother|sister were playing cards using a pack I had gave them. She told me first "You give me liar!"
Which confused me, I thought I was in trouble for something. Then she explained how they were playing cards "我们扑克!" Them and the new dog "Wen cai" Her mother was staying the night in town, so they were staying up late as she shoes them off to bed. Her father had already gone to bed, he had some beer she told me so I guess he was happy.
My wife told me I should have called her after I sent her texts about the surprise. I thought she was asleep when I sent them. She told me she goes to bed whenever she wants, but last night didn't go to bed until midnight. When I called her at 10pm China time she was in bed.
She wants to go to Vietnam for a few days, which is fine by me, but I just want to go to the beach. I kind of want to go back to Thailand....But concerning Vietnam I wonder their attitude toward currency, since the gold trade is being driven underground. She wants to go to her parents first, and fly out from there directly to Vietnam since it's close to Guiyang.
I talked with my wife, she was in the 'kitchen' at her parents ("wei mein nar"). I referred to the house as 'her house' as we do in Canada, she corrected me and told me it was 'her father's.' I then explained to her I was using a figure of speech, it's understood it's her father.
Later I txt'd her, telling her I have a 'BIG suprise!!'
I booked my ticket to go back to see her in March. I booked a seat behind the 'elite' seats. I figure maybe a tall interesting sports figure will sit there, or someone who has the income to sit there, like Richard Branson. Hopefully I won't get burned and it's a mother with her babies. EVERY flight there is a baby, and EVERY flight it screams. It's the most annoying thing in the world. When my wife and I have kids, I'm waiting until the kid can at least walk.
Regardless of the outcome of the ADR I'm going back. I even wrote that on the ticket when I went to the consultant today. I also gave the consultant receipts from Victoria's Secret and a note from my mother explaining the stuff she bought from there - now that I think about it, I think maybe it's a little odd, your mother helping to buy lingerie for your wife? My grandmother wants more great grand kids, so maybe not.
Talked to my wife when I awoke at my buddy's place. She said I was speaking differently again, but it's because forcing myself to wake early to call her I was feeling a little zombie-like, and I was dehydrated from the fireplace and staying up late watching Zombieland (don't bother).
She still thinks the bar was filled with girls and that I wasn't paying attention to the fights - the waitress was annoying standing in the way asking for us if we wanted anything.
I am excited to bring her here so she can see, and we can wager on the fights, she likes to do that - like we used to do on the train from Shenzhen to Zhangmutou watching on my laptop.
talked to my wife, not for very long because of a friggin' migraine. It makes me talk different too (slur), my wife said my pǔ tōng huà 普通話 was different, she asked if I was drinking.
Her family got a new dog, I know she likes dogs but her talking about the new puppy it was obvious. They bought it for 20 RMB. In NA english, when I imitate barking it's "ruff, rrruf, ruff" but her being native Chinese it's "wuah, wuah, wuah."
just got off the phone with my wife, they have no power at her parents. Or power problems because of the heavy rain.
She thought I went out drinking last night, but after we talked I watched the Canada junior hockey game until it was 4-2, watched K-1 Dynamite! then organized my files and Chinese notes. I told her going out for New Years without her is not interesting.
She told me how her father likes the baseball hat I brought her, but the size is off. I will have to bring more.
