Tis Monday afternoon, and as usual I am bored titless so thought it may be a good idea to tell you all about my weekend (not that it was particularly amazing or anything, but hey!)
So incase you're the last person on the planet who doesn't know that my laziness is much akin to a comatose sloth, I am HORRIBLY lazy. As is to be expected, this laziness spans across all types of work, viz. paid employment, housework, exercise, basically anything that requires concentration or expenditure of energy. Now combine this shocking behaviour with the fact that I have no maid and you're headed for a rather dodgy situation.......(I do draw the line at basic hygiene though!)
Yes, yes, I shall get to the point - what's the connection between my laziness and supposed "weekend download"? Well, I spent my ENTIRE friday night ironing!!! I can't expresss or convey to you how much I loathe ironing, but I had no choice. The pile of unironed clothes covering my entire bedroom floor was getting a tad bit out of control. There was no more floor to walk on, and digging through that mess every morning in search of a shirt was getting rather tedious.
The ironing had to be done.
I wanted to cry, contemplated buying an entirely new wardrobe, but quickly remembered that I was skint and didn't have 2 rands to rub together. Twas a loooooong and painful night, which ended way past the witching hour. The pain has been burned in my mind.
After a complete dud of a Friday night, Saturday could only get better. In some fit of utter madness, I had pledged to cook lunch for a bunch of friends of mine.........dumb idea - I think I am going to be evicted from my flat.
The darkies, they came, they chowed, and most importantly, they made the most god-awful NOISE!!!I can not believe that less than 20 people could actually make such a racket - between the singing, the TV, the random yelling and the radio, I would understand if my neighbours signed a petition to have me forcibly removed. But noise aside, I have to admit, I had an absolute hoot. I have idiots for friends, but then again, what's that lark about birds of a feather and whatnot.....
Woke up on Sunday with my little shoebox looking like Hurricane David had strolled through.......remembered why I never do that hosting nonsense! Sped off to the lake and attempted to do a couple of laps, but the combination of a rather painful wrist (please don't ask what I did to it) and a dubious blood alcohol level conspired against me. Ended up spending the afternoon watching the latest soft-porn series to grace our TV screens, The Tudors! Oh what fun!
All in all, a good weekend - how could it not be with great food friends and booze:)

I don't take kindly to being referred to as an idiot. Although, come to think of it, I was out of there before the hectic noise-making began. So I am not counted with the idiot friends, ne? :)
Thanks for the food, though - it was lovely! And the bubbly, of course!
Sorry bra, you also fall under the idiot classification!
I insist on being fed when i come for a visit! All i ever is "Star made this delicious....", "Star hosted lunch"...last time i was there, all i got was a cup of tea nhai nhai!
PS I can't remember the last time i ironed anything...eish, i really can't.
