This morning I woke up and saw Neil Patrick Harris posted a picture of him chilling at the poolside of his Vegas hotel. Kinda made me miss Vegas and our US trip. That thought then moved on to me missing… the Cheesecake Factory. This chain in the US with the best cheesecakes. Like this one.
My Cheesecake factory binge is the reason why Shorty decided to ban me from eating any desserts or sugar drinks for the next month after we came back from the US. Man it was so hard and I only managed to do it for 10 days. That 10 days though was quite a challenge but believe it or not in those 10 days, I actually lost a few KG (coupled with my daily jogging routine).
Still I gave up eventually when I was waiting waiting in KLIA for my plane to Manila. I have this airline card that lets me get into the airport lounge for free even if I’m flying economy class. When I was in there I noticed… free flow Haagen Dazs ice-cream. The fat person who wants to be skinny.. in me said.. NOOooo… but the Malaysian in me said “Anything free just take”.
Eventually the Malaysian won. I guess I’m more Malaysian than I am fatty and that was when my 10 day streak of no dessert or sugar drinks ended.
So I was browsing my pictures at one of the Cheesecake factories we went to in the Bay Area and I managed to find one of my favourite pictures of Shorty. When we first got into the Cheesecake Factory I was busy taking pictures and I asked Shorty to go get us a table.
I saw her move on to the girl behind the counter and ask for a table. I noticed that the girl behind the counter had to tip toe a little bit when she talked to Shorty. I thought it was damn cute. Even more cute was this picture I took of her while she was waiting for a table and standing next to a divider. A divider that was actually as tall as she was (I remember the counter to be almost as high as the divider too… just a little lower).
So I put my phone camera on top of the flat surface of the divider and took a picture of Shorty. This is what my phone camera caught.
Yes ladies & gentlemen, this is how my Shorty looks like from divider-level. I think it’s cute.
