The truth is I've been far too busy enjoying nights out to blog! And to think I was looking forward to things slowing down for a while.
Last weekend Kris, Shari and I went to the Waroona footy club for their International Beer night. It was a big one - we got to travel to Italy, Australia, Mexico and the USA which meant I was soooooo jetlagged on Saturday! The night got off to a great start when the DJ recognised me from a night out in April. It's good to have connections like that...we gave him my phone and got to listen to all the music we wanted to. The down side to listening to all the music you want to is the blisters, ouch!
Most nights when I'm out and about and having a drink or two I get obsessed with someone or something. The randomer the better - I never can understand the obsession the next day despite it all making perfect sense at the time. My beer night obsession was a Waroona Demons tie. Shari spotted one for sale behind the bar and it was love at first sight! We HAD to have one. It took the friendly bar tenders a few hours to track down two but rest assured I went home with two around my neck. They are now safely tucked in my tie drawer with all my other...hang on I don't have any other ties...why did I want one again??
And you'll never guess who I ran into...remember yellow blazer girl from my April night out! I won't be forgetting your name again Courtney...and I WILL be checking what your plans are the next time I take the yellow blazer for a night out!
Saturday night was a girls night out to farewell the crazy Nicole. This girl knows how to party and is also very talented at hacking Facebook accounts - you may have seen some of the chaos online?
The night began with a lovely meal out with Shari and a bottle of wine to kick off the festivities. The 'normalness' pretty much ended up there. We should have known that a group of 'ladies' sitting around discussing the finer details of Shari's beautiful pearl necklace could only lead to trouble.
Tell me - has anyone ever asked to touch your eyes before? There was a man at the pub that was obsessed with eye touching? Not just lids, actual eyeballs...is this some craze I missed out on or did we actually stumble upon a genuine freak last night. I was wondering if touching eyes was going to become my 'obsession' for the night but thankfully Carley turned up and my obsession with her hair began. This may be one of my weirder ones - I have no idea why I insisted on touching it all night? Freak! But in my defense - check out the hair!!
I tried my luck at scoring free beers with a birthday badge too! I used to do this on occasion back in the day so when Connor turned up wearing his 18th ribbon I asked him if it was legit. It was, but he was kind enough to let me share the birthday honours. Unfortunately I can't recall one person believing that I was 18. I pretended to be Connor's Mum but that didn't work either, Carley kept turning it upside down but 81 didn't suit either. I refused to give the badge up - they might not have believed me but damn I got some good conversations out of it!
Sunday morning got off to a slow start, but not content to the let the weekend slip away Tones and I decided to take the kids to Dwellingup for a counter meal. A can of coke and an awesome scotch fillet later my vitality had been restored. We managed to squeeze in a quick trip to see Dad and spent the whole time talking about iPads. When he gets one I have to set it up and teach him how to use it...hmmm...I can sense an iPad tutorial blog coming up???
So with all that fun in the last few weeks you'd assume I'd be having a quiet one next weekend right? Not a chance - I'll be back in Waroona (fast becoming a fave hangout) to celebrate the beautiful Stace's birthday! In the meantime, here are some more pics - I love the morning after camera check...always good for a laugh!
And my personal fave - a sneaky selfie from the chief photographer Billie.
