Monday night was the 15th day of the 7th month of the Chinese Calender. During the 7th month, I always try to make it home before sunset because I am *gasp* extremely superstitious. Say what you like about having a strong hold on my Christian beliefs and science-based explanations. I will not take any chances at crossing paths with visitors on a one month holiday from the underworld. So I'm sorry for all yum chas and night outings I'll have to postpone until the 7th month is well and truly over.

On a cheerier (is that word valid?) note... NEW PICS! Go take a look. Don't scrutinise my face. The pimples are simply devastating!
