My first blog
As it's been the good old Easter weekend, yes, those of you who overdosed on chocolate, that's why you get the eggs!, I'll just talk you through my on/off weekend.
Friday Night : Planned to meet up with Karen and Matt and MJ- so wandered on my lonesome into Obediah's, only to bump into Matt sat with a pint, a fag and a friendly smile. Had a bit of a chat before Karen arrived and then Matt and Karen proceeded to have me in stitches regaling tales of peeing in bins, knickers on floors etc etc. We had a wander up to the Old House, where Matt did some great singing, must admit to have winced at the step's song though, was brilliant but not quite sure what Matt was squeezing to get those high notes. Karen did a number too, fabulous as always. Sat and chatted to MJ quite a bit, I was supposed to be doing Blackpool the next day and I didn't want to, so MJ was trying to get me to go cycling instead, as it turned out I could do neither, which was a shame, because I was hoping MJ wore lycra! I think we went up to the Station after that? some confusion over a woman claiming to be Karens Aunt and telling me Karen never shut up about me, turned out it was the wrong Karen, which worries me even more, who the hell's this other Karen and what the hell is she talking about me for?
Went on to the gastric paradise that is sloppy joes. Lot's of laughing, ribs hurting by this point and desperately trying to swallow the dry tikka I ordered, a feat somewhat similar to a spoonful of peanut butter if you have ever tried it.
Saturday: Got a call at 7am telling me my Dad had been rushed to hospital with a suspected (3rd) stroke, turned out it was, but like the one's before, only a very mild temporary one, thank god!! Still this really did mean I couldn't go to Blackpool, and I still never got to see MJ's lycra! Spent all night in front of the TV bored out of my tree, must have watched 20 DVD episodes of Will and Grace and The Golden Girls to alleviate my boredom.
Sunday: Ditto the above. Only now I had moved on to old Bette Davis movies and a plentiful supply of wine.
Monday: Oh the pain of it all, in my wisdom I decided to drive up to Ikea park and shop for Kylie cd's and have a coffee at Starbucks - all very nice if the traffic hadn't been so bloody bad. Managed it in the end though and got served by some hot, hot, hot guy asking me if I wanted milk or cream in my starbucks! Guess which I had......
Well that's about it for my first blog, and my easter weekend! Hope you all had a more fabulous one than I did, woe is me woe is me...............
