So it's an absurd year of Weddings and it's official! I've got 10 weddings to attend this year and one to be the star of. The wedding planning, the wedding reception (after the church function), the cards, the grand banquet, the invitation, the relatives, the finance-planning for the big day, where to go during the honeymoon! OMG! But thank God for great wedding sites!

As for us, the adventure starts this week.

We're off to Penang to attend the wedding (or was it an engagement party? Can't recall) of one of Eric's LP friends. Now this is where being a frequent traveller helps a lot because I can get cool prices for lodging, and so I told Eric that I'd book the hotel room. It's the Gurney. I wanted G Hotel but it's so popular now they only have executive suites left.

So never mind that, I was telling my mom about the drive we were making this weekend.

'Oh so where are you going to stay?'
'The Gurney lah. I booked a room.'
'Really?'
'Yeah, two beds.'
'Of course. Just be careful…'
'Mom, there's two beds.'
'Yeah well two of you are engaged, and anyway both of you will be in the same room… one bed or two beds… well… and even if you booked two rooms, you can still go back to the same room.'

There she goes again. (Seriously since getting engaged my mom has been going on and on about sex in not so many words.)

'Mom!!'
'Well, you're both engaged and going to get married, so I don't care what you do lah, as long as you don't get pregnant before the wedding can adi.'

'…'

Answer or not? Talk or not? I just got license to pre-marital sex. Should we bring out the wine and confetti?
