saturday night in...

I've just realised that tonight is the first Saturday I haven't been out in... nine weeks. No wonder I'm sick.

sick @ home...

2 things you do when you're bed-ridden sick (besides being horizontal and pulverising the tissue box) :

(1) You thank God for audio visual equipment

I've been hanging out with my buddy the couch, my homey the blanky, and my very best friend the TV since Monday afternoon... and besides one brave friend who visited me yesterday, I'm pretty much human-contact-free. In this time I've managed to curl up and watch :

Also managed to squeeze in some much needed Bold & Beautiful. Sweet... BUT - why the F is Ridge wanting Brooke back??? Hel-LO? Taylor is hot!

(2) You miss your mum

How much do I miss my mum? T H I S M U C H !... what I would give right now to have my mum here to rub vicks on my chest... seriously what I would give for just one hug. The crappy thing is that when I call her (which is almost every day at the moment) I can't sound sad... cos that makes her sad. And it's not like she can really do anything from Brissie.... On a brighter note she's coming in May - 23 sleeps to go, but who's counting??

Nothing, I tell you, nothing beats mum's TLC.

sick as a dog

I'm sick as a dog, coughing up some mutant looking phlegm monstrosities... and feeling uber unattractive. boo. I dragged my sorry ass to work anyway because if I took a sickie today, how dodgy would that have looked?! So here I am coughing and spluttering on everyone, so they know I'm sick... hehe..

I had a fabulous weekend though... went to Kirribilli markets with Kate on Saturday, soaked up the sun, ate some yummy gozleme, spent some money and then went home for a power nap (signs of sickness creeping in) before heading out to dinner at Hurricanes. Ate too much at Hurricanes, as you do, and belched and possibly farted (they smell like strawberry cupcakes) my way through the rest of the evening.







After Hurricanes, I was slyly conned into going to White Horse, a bar (is it a gay bar?) in Surry Hills and then onto Marly Bar in Newtown. Was an interesting evening.

And I also decided that one of Cam's friends is a total cutie. But he's leaving Sydney in 3 months... *sigh*. I sure can pick 'em.

Yesterday I hung out with my workmate, had a lazy late lunch in Darling Harbour before heading over to Babs' place armed with not one, but two dozen Krispy Kremes for Mags. Hehe.. Mags loves me.

easter festivities

11.38pm Sunday night and I've just gotten home after being away for almost 2 days. I'm ti-red and looking forward to recovering tomorrow. Recap?

Thursday night

Yummy dinner @ Golden Kingdom Restaurant. Watched Arthur's debut as a tv star (too oily for tv, I say)... back to Ian's for poker where I won for the first time like, ever!

Friday

Took a leisurely drive with Joy up to Collaroy, otherwise known as the Northern Beaches - about 30 mins north of the city. Beaaauuutiful warm day, we lay on the beach, ate omelettes, drank tea... and headed back into the city on Friday night for some viet food. Should have taken photos at the beach.. shoulda woulda coulda... I was too bz tanning.

Saturday

Mel & I finally went to Rennaisance for the famous creme brulee! DELICIOUS. Never would you have seen two little people walk so fast from Pitt St Mall all the way to The Rocks *hehe*


Saturday night was spent at 360 @ Hordern Pavilion. SO F**KING WICKED. I had the best time ever. I was on my feet til 5am non-stop. I put old grudges on hold at least for one night. What else could I ask for?













Sunday

Made our way to the after party at Slip Inn.. too packed. WAY too packed, especially if you're a foot and a half shorter than everyone else, rendering you officially 'armpit height'. Left early, went to Shane's and played some made up trivial pursuit game where I learnt some new and nifty things!!

It's now 2am Monday. So I've taken forever on this blog...don't ask why I'm still up.

another weekend gone

Friday

After spending 14.5 hours at work, I really needed a drink. It was Easter Kids Day (my CSR project for the quarter), it was brilliantly successful... but after hanging around animals and children all day, a cocktail @ ECQ Bar was all I needed. Delicious Applini... fun company thanks to Jo, Nicola & Aaron... was going to Cargo but got a little drunk & went home - sorry!

Saturday

Saturday was fun! Hehe.. after lunching on the most ginormous omelette in Newtown, Mel, Raph and I headed on our hunt for the bestest Creme Brulee in all of Sydney! Our search led us to La Renaissance Patisserie Francaise @ The Rocks, the cutest quaintest little place ever. Very sadly when we got there, they were sold out of Creme Brulee's...

Nevermind, because Mel's mind was quickly distracted. We wandered through The Rocks Markets and Mel found this little fairy & lipbalm stall which seemed to bedazzle her... infact it bedazzled her so much that she practically begged the man behind the counter to give her a fantastical magic wand & some glitter on her hand... haha... You are SO creepy Mel!

(Actually I lie... hehehe it was a creepy man at the fairy stall who was talking to us as though we were 14 years old hehe.. Mel and I freaked and ran off as fast as we could!! Very creepy indeed...)

Saturday night was spent in culinary heaven @ Ian's house... Stef cooked up a storm, I ate, then went home and nursed my nose which by this time had become rather sniffly...

Sunday

Well, Kate & I were meant to go to the gym - right Kate? But then 'someone' got the days mixed up and the gym wasn't even open! So we ate instead. As you do.

After a yummy Devonshire Tea - "does it come with tea?" - breakfast, my girl Kate & I jumped on a train and headed to Kirribilli markets for a stroll. We absorbed the glorious sunshine, then Geoff met us for lunch, where we discussed his moral issues on hitting on Suzie the hot waitress.. and also Lim's Erections. Don't ask.

After lunch, went home... napped.

Oh and I vacuumed and mopped and scrubbed the shower and wiped every surface and I love my house again! Clean!

weekend at a glance

Firstly, how f'ing good was the weather on the weekend?!

Friday

Had a really productive week @ work... got a snazzy haircut to boot, walked around with "wavy" hair all day Friday which was pretty exciting.. cos I didn't look like me! Watched March of the Penguins on Friday night after devouring XO Pipi's from Superbowl and 2 Taro bubble tea's. Schweeeeet.... penguins. SO DAMN CUTE! although apparently they are smellier than they are cute tho so that says a lot about how stinky they are..!

Saturday

Me, Mel, Babs, ice cream & hot chocolate....















Sunday

Me, Kate, Birkenhead Point & the most delicious pair of boots from NineWest!! Never did I think I would buy shoes from NineWest.. but look! Beautiful pair of knee high leather boots - $370 down to... $112! GodDAMN.
