Figs / "accident"

Mom insisted that lady bugs are eating our figs. As if the fruit is killing them, they "took a bite and then die". I didn't believe her, so she showed me the proof. Well... I thought lady bugs only eat aphids. I could be wrong... but this still doesn't convince me. More importantly, what the heck is this empty shell? According to mom, it's not just a few, but there has been many.

Dad came back from day care and immediately complained about his hat and jacket being stolen. But he didn't wear any of those to start with! Then mom noticed he was wearing a different pair of pants than the one he left with. It's got a sewn-on name tag. Clearly belongs to someone else. His diaper was different too. After much speculations and finally reached Mrs. L who was also there, the puzzle was pieced together.

Just before Handydart arrived, Mrs. L suggested dad to take a leak. He did, but came back with pee stain all over his pants. (He probably went peeing standing.) The driver refused to let him onto the bus. So someone lend him a new diaper and a spare pair of pants. Seems like he couldn't change himself properly and put his shoes on wrong... by stepping onto and totally folding down the heel. (Sigh... I see now. This is why mom always look at shoes for dad whenever we go to Zellars.) We'll have to return the borrowed pants and new diaper next time... Too bad I have to work tomorrow. It's Friday the soonest.

Then mom went to pick some figs from our backyard. When she wasn't looking, dad picked two really young ones. Mom told him those weren't ready and not sweet, but dad insisted they were good and ate them right there. Sigh... I know we can't expect common sense from him anymore, but isn't he just going against us for no reason? Is he so retarded that the flavourless Styrofoam-like figs actually tasted good? Or did he do it just to proof himself right?

Eat-out day with brother's gang. I had 5 errands to run before that, arrived slightly late, yet still beat them to the restaurant. Haha... (not good.)

That Taiwanese restaurant was quite good. Food was delicious and they claim they don't use MSG. $60 for 7 people is very reasonable too.
