What’s the indication that a man is for keeps?
When he brings home chocolates. To be precise? A HUGE bag of Maltese balls, and a pack of Tim Tams.
Without you asking for it.
And always keeping a constant supply of chocolate icecreams in the fridge, and have mastered the stock disappearance calculations.
I finished the last piece of Magnum Mini icecream today, out of 6 in a pack.
It is my off day, and I woke up late from the tiredness of my previous day.
When I woke up, it was raining. I fumed. I wanted to head to the library and maybe go out and get myself sushi.
Since it’s not going to happen today, I…
…went back to bed.
Til noon.
Aaaah, this must what feeling rich feels like!
Then I can’t sleep anymore, cos it’s impossible to sleep whole day before your body starts rebelling you know! So I called a friend to go out for lunch, and that we did. But lunch ended soon enough because my friend has had a full day and was tired…while I was on hyper mode!
So a girl has got to do what a girl has got to do when she’s bored at home. Nevermind I have cable TV here. Nevermind I have internet. Nevermind I have an ever playful dog outside. I was bored and was determined to pass my time…
…eating.
Like any proper Malaysian would do!
So I finished my chocolate supply for the week.
Being with me 1.5 years, Hero knows what to expect and already have this in-built mechanism to predict when chocolate supplies in the house will be wiped out by his chubby, monstrous penguin.
So when he came home from work today, there were fresh chocolate supplies! Woo hoo!
Now my man is crashed on the couch in his workwear. I don’t have the heart to wake him up and tell him to shower. He has had a long day, and for now won’t get a break this week for two weeks. No off days for him until the end of next week.
I don’t even want to wake him up to head to bed.
Guess I’ll pull the swag out, lay it out in the lounge room and sleep here. 
Sometimes, I feel so lucky. You know?
The Mad Penguin hopes that all of you who come across this post today have the same feeling that I have. I hope you have someone you love so much, and someone who loves you so much you sometimes think no one can be so lucky than you are. It is the best feeling in the world.
It doesn’t even have to be your significant other. It can be your sister, your brother, your parents who have been behind you all this while, a good loyal friend…
God.
Goodnight, people.

Oh, yeah, he`s a keeper! I`m TRYING to be good, but Irving still brings me giant hot dogs and chocolate bars when he comes home from work in the capital since there is a shop on the way. SOOOOO good. I can`t resist. Even though that whole trend started when I was pregnant because I was always starving. Lol. Let me tell you, eating like you`re pregnant when you are decidedly NOT . . . bad idea.
Enjoy your chokkies!
