If things go as planned, I will be watching a getai tonight. Mr Dimples is absolutely endearing in how he is most encouraging of my sudden whimsical whims, to the extent he is willing to give up watching Singapore Idol, which he is a huge fan of (I kid you not), with no persuasion.

I’m pleased to announce I did not say anything damaging or deterring when the 40 minute long conversation meandered into déjà vu territory. Horribly familiar, he spoke of how meeting on the average of once every fortnight is for close friends (bearing in mind we are going to meet once a week for the next three consecutive weeks, thanks to getai, JBJ & Broadway Beng). Okay, don’t ask me how that came about but I’m sure it’s nothing we should be getting worked up or excited over unduly. It was nevertheless an interesting observation.

So fortunately, I did not put my foot in the mouth.

Unfortunately, I said nothing illuminating or inspiring either.

I merely changed the subject.

In case, anyone is wondering, JBJ (part of the inaugural Singapore Theatre Festival) Broadway Beng tickets were fully paid for and not invites. I give all my money to local arts, you know.
