The Long Weekend is Approaching…

I love the fact I’ve had a blog for over a year, I jumped back to October long weekend last year. Wow how times have not changed too much.

This day last year I had dinner with MFL. We have been trying over the last 3 weeks to find a mutual time for coffee and cake, well as we still call in strawberry milkshake and scones. I haven’t seen him since he got back from the World Cup and Cyprus, I miss him.

Saturday last year, I saw La Boheme, this year Saturday night I’m going to the opera to see Pirates of Penzance.

Sunday last year I worked, cursing, while everyone I knew was out in the sun. Then went to Balmain to watch the NRL grand final. This year I’m NOT working! I’m thoroughly looking forward to being at Star City Casino Grand Final Party, with compliments Vikki who got the free tickets!

Monday, last year Monday morning felt like a scene out of Sex and the City. The heat for the rest of day, the drunken / hang over blur that it was… Hope this year isn’t anywhere near the same, ahhh.. Well it more than likely will be - I’m seeing M. on Monday, he just got back from England and Dubai.

Have a sensational weekend!

Go the Storm!

I'm a bloody bridesmaid again tomorrow and then Sunday I'm going to the footy to support The Storm.
i'm quite confilicted because ordinarily i wouldn't want a Melb team to win, but it's the lesser of two evils. I hate QLD more. Haaha!

You have a good weekend too. :)

It's a Storm fest - I'll be watching it from the comfort of my lounge with my boy by my side, cheering on the Storm!
