here’s the pics of baby2espect in her halloween costume.  at least this was allowed through customs – had an issue during the week where a playstation controller in the shape of a gun got rejected for delivery. trying to reroute it through somebody in the UK for delivery now

so one of the guys at work drives a porsche panamera. it’s black, all tricked up. it’s pretty sweet.

just this last week, the guy that parks next to him, bought himself a new porsche black panamera as well. i was in a meeting with the guy who had his first and was giving him some stick

“my friend, his car is newer, it makes his better than yours! what are you going to do?”

“yes. i have been thinking about this also. i think i will buy a ferrari and then we’ll see who has the newer, better car”

hahahahahahaha. love it.

wow. what a trip.

here’s the first couple of photos. included is a little setup that was done for us to enjoy some drinks on the beach, a pic of baby2espect, first thing the next morning.  She’s thinking “Sheesh. I know the snorkling is better on the sunrise side of the island, but what’s with the early morning sun!”.

Also included is a picture of me in “the pose” – one for the evilsquashzenmaster.

useful tip for aussies or new zealanders coming to qatar.  While the direct flight from melbourne to doha is nice (Qatar Airways aircraft really are the newest in the world and the service is very good), we generally prefer to do singapore then doha.

traveling with a baby it just means that if something really bad happens on the flight, you have a half time stop to fix things, take a shower, change clothes, whatever.  This time we elected to stop over for a couple of nights to get some shopping in, and see the sights.

baby2espect and mrs2espect seemed to have a really good time!

baby2espect's first all you can eat hotel breakfast!

All set for a big day on the streets of sing sing

first stop, shoe shopping!

baby2espect. seasoned international traveling chick!

We had a quick stop at Raffles for a singapore sling, then across the road to the german bar for pork sausages and beer!!!!!

mrs2espect pulling down a raffles singapore sling

when it all get's too much!

Dinner that night was down at the satay club at clarke’s. really tasty, although after dinner we looked around a bit and should have tried somewhere else…there are some amazing food places down there.

c'mon - havnt got time to hang around. look at me! i gots people to impress!

i said c'mon!

oh noes. more papparazzi!

satays. singapore noodles. rice. chilli crab. tiger beer. bout as singapore as you can get.

While in singapore we also checked out the singapore flyer. mrs2espect spent the entire 30mins shitting herself but baby2espect and me thought it was awesome.  straight from the flyer we went to the skypark – the hotel there has their pool hanging off the side of the building like 46 stories up. amazing.

one of the highlights was the tapas dinner we had.  checkout the carving rig set-up at the pass!

back home for a week then off to the maldives! cant wait!!!

So Lenny has made it through his operation….but now he has a boil on his hind quarters.  This is one of three things in order of severity.

1.  it’s just a reaction to his surgery.  it will go away with anti-biotics

2. it’s an infection of his anal sac – a gland near his bum that produces the smells that dogs use to identify each other.  it’s a bitch of an infection to treat but will go away with antibiotics and time.

3. it’s cancer.  if it doesn’t start to clear up in  a couple of days he has to have a biopsy.

c’mon lenny. don’t let us down now!

skype convo with mrs2espect:

[1:02:02 PM] zero2espect: i just spoke to vet
[1:02:13 PM] zero2espect: lenny made it through operation.
[1:02:45 PM] zero2espect: when they opened him up they were surprised that because he is in such good condition there was only a small amount of damage from the twisting
[1:03:19 PM] zero2espect: they have fixed it. and they have stitched his tummy to his ribs so the chances of it happening again are very small
[1:03:38 PM] zero2espect: he lost a lot of blood during operation though
[1:04:06 PM] zero2espect: he is coming awake and the doc said that everything is looking ok, but we need to not get our hopes up for another 24 hours
[1:04:25 PM] zero2espect: the next 24 hours are when if something goes wrong, it will happen
[1:04:52 PM] zero2espect: i am allowed to visit him tonite but he will likely be at vet for a couple of days
[1:04:58 PM] zero2espect: and will be very sore
