Ross:
Well umm I, I just never think of money as an issue.
Rachel:
That’s ‘cause you have it.
- F.R.I.E.N.D.S Season 2, Episode 5: The One with
Five Steaks and an Eggplant
There’s this argument the husband
and I get into all the time where he claims that I conceal key information. I
don’t paint the whole picture. I keep him in the dark. In other words, I
deliberately delay dishing out details. My answer to that is this: bear your own
burden, buddy! I’m not an external hard-drive, memorizing the minutiae you’re
too lazy to log.
Put plainly, my policy is that even
if I do possess poignant pieces of information, I will make them public when I
please.
Plus, in my defense, he has a
habit of barging in right while I’m basking in a bit of blank brain-time to
conduct a quick Q&A. That isn’t cool.
It’s crazy.
But it’s been almost 4 months
into blabbing and blogging and it’s just hit me that I have been holding
something back. Don’t roll your eyes. I know that seems strange coming from
someone who’s squawking 24/7, but when it comes to spilling saucy little
secrets, stealth is more my style. Frankly, I find that awaiting the ideal
opportunity to unload amplifies the intended effect of the information, but
that’s a separate story.
Also, I’m a sadist who likes ceaseless
suspense. P.S. I loved Scooby Doo,
but, man, the blatant bad-guys were such a buzz-kill!
Anyways, in light of where this
litany is leading, I think it’s time to divulge the dramatic little detail.
Or not.
Some things are better left unsaid,
right?
Jokes aside though, I’m absolutely
enamored with the inappropriate. It says so right there in the title of this
blog. The “Haw Hai” is a heads-up that I don’t really care for clamming up and
I’m definitely not shy about sharing. And yes, tittering over taboo topics
-jaw-dropping jokes, crazy confessions, bungling bloopers, eww-inducing experiences - might be a tad
*tsk* *tsk*, but it totally tickles my fancy.
By the way, in case you’re
interested, nothing makes people uncomfortable like a little honesty.
Anyhow, in the spirit of spilling
all, I feel the need for full-disclosure.
Brace yourselves, besties and
resties ‘cause I’m ready to reveal the real me.
