Today is my 7th day working in a row. I'm working tomorrow also and then I have 2 days off, I'm kinda run down and I'm now eating McDonalds which is not going to help my case.
Yesterday after work I went to Schutzenfest and met up with Leanne, Jacqui, Chris and briefly Josh. I was wandering around on my own there for a while, but they got there eventually. I had two beers when really I probably should only have had 1 as I had to drive a few hours later. So they arrived and we had kranskis, baked potatoes and nachos, we danced to 99 red balloons ... in german of course. That song is like the best song ever, so we did that and sat down for a while, then it was time to go. I thought I would be fine but walking back to the car I felt a bit off. I drove around the corner .... and there was a booze bus, the last thing I wanted to be there. So there I am sitting at the traffic lights in my car, I grabbed my Powerade out of my .... that reminds me, I had one of those new energy drinks from coke, you know "MOTHER". It's pretty much chutney in a can. You go through this cola taste right onto chutney and it really isn't pleasant. So there I was crapping my pants at the traffic lights debating whether to chuck a u-turn and head back the other way and quickly remembering there was a cop there too, I took my chances and went around the corner. The station was full, I was safe. Safe but shaken up. I have no doubt I would have blown over, I wont be doing that again.
I had organised to pick Carly up at the Cranker and take her to BOHO where we were meeting everyone for April's birthday. I got her a monkey and a pair of boobs that are a stress ball ... because I call her ape tits. Aunty Bev was at BOHO and man was she switched on. Everyone got some tongue from her, except Carly and myself though, we didn't really dance. We were grannies and had coffee .... just so that we could get BOHO mugs because they looked a nice size. They were. Carly stole the saucers as well.
So I've come home with a stein and a mug. A rather productive day if I do say so myself.
