EDSA Traffic

Hindi mo talaga masasabi kung ano ang magiging takbo ng traffic sa EDSA. For those who take this route everyday, I'm sure you know what I mean. 

Kaninang 2:15PM nasa smoking area ako at eto ang traffic sa EDSA. Ang kyut kyut. Parang mga langgam  yung mga sasakyan.

Kaninang 4:30PM pagtingin ko sa EDSA eto naman ang nakita ko.

Traffic parin but under different circumstances.

Traffic, more fun in the Philippines!

Slightly Awkward Moment

Half Day At Work

Kahapon, pagdating ko sa office, medyo masama na ang pakiramdam ko. Kaya pa naman ng powers ko kaya ako pumasok sa office. Pero habang tumatagal medyo nanghihina na ako.

Pagdating ng 2pm, tinanong ko ang boss ko kung pwede akong umuwi ng mas maaga dahil medyo hindi ko na kaya. Naintindihan naman niya kaya keri lang daw. May mga tinapos lang ako and by 3pm, umalis na ako ng office. Oh diba? 10am ang pasok pero by 3pm lumayas na ako.

I don't really go home early even if I'm not feeling well pero kahapon medyo di na kaya ng powers ko kaya kelangan nang umuwi. 

Dumating ako sa bahay ng mga 4, kumain ng konti dahil in fairness gutom na ako nun. Tnxt ko si Gregory at sinabing nasa bahay na ako at masama ang pakiramdam. By 4:30, borlogs na ako.

Nagising ako ng 9:30. Ang una kong ginawa eh chineck ang phone ko. May mga txt si Gregory sa akin. Medyo nagaalala.

Nagreply naman ako para malaman niyang buhay pa ako.

Nagtxt siya at sinabing pupuntahan ako sa bahay at magdadala ng food. Alam kasi niyang pag may sakit ako, wala akong ganang kumain at kesehodang 3 days pa yan, pag wala akong gana, hindi talaga ako kakain. Promise, kung every week lalagnatin ako na tatagal ng 3 days each. In  one or two months, siguro dose na ulit ang bewang ko.

Dumating siya, magaalas onse na. Galing office, nagovertime, bumili ng food, at traffic pa.

Ang nirequest ko eh mushroom soup from KFC. Eto ang binili:

Ang sweet niya no?

Instead na umuwi na at magpahinga, dumaan muna sa bahay at sinamahan akong kumain.

After naming kumain, nanood kami ng RuPauls Drag Race, ang isa sa aking bagong addiction ngayon nang dahil sa kanya.

Magkayakap sa malamig na gabi dahil umuulan. After one episode, kailangan na niyang umuwi dahil gabi na at may trabaho pa siya kinabukasan.

Pero bago siya umalis, yumakap siya ulit sa akin ng mahigpit at sinabing ayaw pa daw niyang umuwi talaga.

Mas gusto daw niyang kasama ko na matulog.

Lagi niyang sinasabi sa akin na hindi daw siya sweet at malambing.

Ang sagot ko naman sa kanya lagi, hindi lang niya napapansin na sweet siya at naglalambing. It just comes out naturally.

RUB Ribs & BBQ

For several weeks, Gregory has been talking about a place called RUB which is located in Tomas Morato. He said that they serve ribs there and he knows that I like ribs. My favorite are from ClawDaddy's. 

We decided to have dinner there during our last 'date night'. 

I've never heard or seen RUB so I didn't know what to expect. When we got there, I was surprised because I though the place would be huge and packed with people. I was wrong about one thing. The place was small BUT it was chalk-full of people having dinner.

We were given a number and we waited outside. Now, I am one who doesn't wait in line for anything (I'm maarte that way) but I was intrigued about this place. So while waiting, Gregory played some games on my phone while I smoked.

In fairness, the price of their food is affordable. It's cheap especially if you're with someone.

I must say, I love the service at RUB. The waiters are very courteous and they moved really fast. Very good. Two thumbs waaay up. I will always go for a place where the service is impeccable because what's the point of spending good money on food if the service crew people are rude and slow. Catch my drift?

We placed our orders and in less than 10 minutes, the food arrived. We had potato-corn chowder which was actually really good. It was creamy but not too heavy and the potatoes they used were the good kind.

We ordered the Family Brunch which comes with two slabs of ribs and 3 side dishes of your choice. My personal suggestion, go for the Garlic Roasted Mashed Potatoes. They taste great. The other side dishes we got were so-so although I did like the Bacon and Potato Salad.

The ribs were really good. They're not the best ribs I've had (I still prefer ClawDaddy's) but they're good. I just wished they were grilled longer because I like my ribs to cut like butter.

There are these portraits around the joint which I like. I like resto's like this. They just have something so relaxing about them.

And this is the aftermath. That was a big meal and we were both full.

My verdict? 4.5 stars.

Why the .5? Like I said, I want my ribs to cut like butter. But I love this place. For less than 1k, we were both full.

RUB Ribs & BBQ is located in Tomas Morato Avenue. It's beside Serenitea in the alley across the street from Papa Johns.
