This weekend was a whirlwind of reminiscing and absolute craziness!

So I’ve told you about Bix, right? Well she has bumped up her flight and is now leaving for London TODAY! She told us this on Thursday, so, as you can imagine, this weekend became “The-Best-of-the-Three-Musketeers-Back-Together-One-Last-Time.”

On Friday we went to Doors and rocked our socks off! I am not even kidding! I haven’t danced like that since… actually ‘m not even sure I have danced like that. We were on the floor the WHOLE time. Every time my body would say, “Ok, it’s time for a rest!” a really, really good song would come on and I would just ignore it! It was so AWESOME. I’m sure The Killers would agree. They were coming there for the concert after party, although I gave in to my body before they arrived , so there is no proof in the form of a photo (although apparently there are no camera’s allowed in Doors, at all, ever! So that wouldn’t have happened anyway!).

So after the “Awesomest-Night-of-Dancing-Ever” I woke up and I promise you, I couldn’t move me neck. I just laid there trying to figure out how I was going to get up. Did you know that you use your neck muscles for almost every movement you make? It gives you momentum to move forward or get up. Yes, I know, it was news to me too.

So Saturday was interesting, to say the least. I did still manage so go out with Mr Perfect and get DVD’s but that was about it. We watched “Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince” (I had forgotten what it was like in cinema… Twilight has that effect), “The Hangover” (which was hilarious… did I mention earlier that you use your neck to laugh too?) and “Ice Age 3″ (which was pretty good too. Who doesn’t love cute baby dinosaurs and Mammoths?).

Yesterday I woke up with a very, very slightly better neck and off we went to The Glen, before going back to Bix’s to have a farewell braai. Shopping was horrific… busy shopping centre’s should not be inhabited by crazy girls who have a sore neck and can therefore not work properly. Needless to say, I was not in the best of moods!

The braai was awesome, as well. Reminiscing about ‘The Good Ol’ Days” can never be bad Except when people keep pouring shooters, on a Sunday, and you have to then be reminded that you are now older and have to actually go to work on a Monday – that sucks! I did leave there with a special something though – “The Holy Grail of the Three Musketeers.” Yes, it sounds ridiculous, but it is our book. It holds the ultimate form of reminiscing and I may even post some of the best ones here You never know.

All in all it was fantastic, but now I have to get to the airport and deal with the not so awesome part – saying goodbye!

What a weekend!! I went to a braai on Saturday for my one friend’s, let’s call her bix, birthday. Bix and I were friends since we we’re in grade 8 and on my 21st we had a massive falling out and only recently started chatting again. There were three of us – the three musketeers, as we used to put it – the third of us being Sammy.  We spent almost every weekend of high school together and were each intricate parts of one another’s lives. Until Sammy and Bix had a stupid fight of sorts, Sammy ended up dating one of our friends (they are now engaged) and moved to the little town of Gaansbaai. She only moved back about 2 weeks ago. When I think back, I realize how quickly it all happened!

Anyway so Saturday was the first time in about 5 years that were all together again and I must say, it felt like I had stepped into a time machine and I was in grade 10 again!

It was so much fun. We partied like our lives depended on it and we caught up on everything from “What are you doing now?” to ” OMG! Do you remember that time we….?”. It felt like old times, like absolutely nothing had changed!!

Well except for the fact that my body no longer recovers quite as quickly as it used too. When I woke up, all I could think was Oh yes, this is why I stopped doing this! Man, I forgot what shooters do to a person!! I also forgot about UDI’s (unexplained Drunken Injuries). It was worth it, though, and I’m impressed, I didn’t even think the standard, “I’m never drinking again!” line.

Anyway… so here’s to Monday and to an awesome weekend! I hope there are many more to come!!

Monday advice:

Be positive and Learn to absolutely love what you already have

Happy Monday everyone!

So I went to the Cosmo 25th Birthday bash at Taboo in Sandton on Wednesday and it was so awesome! We got to jam with the Idols and pretend we knew who everyone was! Zebra and Giraffe were AWESOME!! Man, now I’m sad that I’m missing Coke Fest this year because I would definitely pay to see them play again!

Grant and Anele we’re also awesome… they played a great set and we danced like there was no tomorrow!! Although we left early (it was a Wednesday night after all) I had such a blast!!

The wierd thing about it was that I didn’t feel out of place at all… instead it felt as though everyone was playing the “who’s the celebrity game?”. You’d walk through the place and everyone would look at you trying to figure out which celeb you are! Ha ha ha… was very entertaining, particularly because Mr. Perfect stands out so much (he’s 2.08m tall!) lol. I think everyone thought he was some famous rugby player or something!

Anyhoo… it was loads of fun and I can’t wait til the next party… maybe I’ll actually be a celeb of sorts!

You never know…. Well I can dream can’t I??
