I'm getting the feeling that I am at the wrong station in life....
Knowing me, I got off at the wrong stop
And really have only just realised that this is not where I'm supposed to be, how sad
This is not how I imagined my life to be at this stage in my life but I guess, while I'm here, I might as well take some time to enjoy it, it's not every day that you get to turn 20-something ;p

Here I am - SIMPSONIZED!
I lost my car and Lulu passed out
Well, what a start to my weekend!
Lulu and I decided to give blood and even though we did everything that was asked of us, ya know like, drink lots of water, and eat before hand etc etc etc, Lulu still blacked out! Gave me a bit of a fright she did, one moment she was talking to me normally and the next moment her eyes rolled to the back of her head and she was sliding off the chair. Poor me, I could only hold her head so she wouldn't fall off and hurt herself. Frightening stuff at the time but really funny afterwards. In fact, we really can't stop telling people about it and we can't stop laughing about it ourselves... then,
Friday night, dinner at the delectable Moroccan Soup Bar - yum yum yum
Friday night drinkies for my birthday at Manchuria, simply because Der Raum was booked out - poops
After drinkies, we couldn't find our way back into the carpark, and no - we were not drunk yet.
Saturday, had to work... drove to work (for the first time), parked car in carpark, after work, could not find car in said carpark. Started to worry... went to every level of the carpark, finally found car in a rather empty carpark on the first floor that I thought I had checked... very embarrasing moment, and starting to worry about my sanity.
Sunday, lunch with some friends, meeting at Docklands, lots of traffic, hard to find parking, change location to South Melbourne, but could not get in touch with one of the friends. Called and called, left lots of messages, sent a stack of sms'es but got no response, started to worry, so we decided to go back to Docklands to look for her. Couldn't find her, after an hour of worry, we decided that her phone battery was flat and we should have lunch (all of us were very very ravenous by this time, it was nearly 3pm).
After lunch, drove to airport to collect my folks, who were coming back from Sydney. Drove car into carpark, and lose ticket immediately. No idea where it's gone. I reckon I didn't take the ticket from the machine, everybody else reckons I'd dropped it - I'm not sure, I remember pushing the button, but don't remember taking the ticket.... really starting to worry about the state of my mind now....

Things that make me go "aaawwwwww - you shouldn't have!"
I don't know where to start, but boy did I have a great birthday yesterday. The weather started off perfect. Have I ever told you that it never rains on my birthday? Mother Nature is kind to me :)
My kids are so wonderful, they surprised me with 6 boxes of Krispy Kreme donuts, and came up with this hairbrain idea that we can give away a donut for each person who wishes me a happy birthday and gives me a hug. Very cute, and very sweet but what happens if I don't want to hug some smelly uni student? I couldn't escape it.... 75 hugs later (I got a few extra ones), I'm one very happy little leo :)
Then, I was taken out to lunch to a quaint little French patisserie to be Marie Antoinette for an hour and just ate cake (we had a choice of bread as well, but I just wanted to eat cake :o)
On my return to the office, my lubbly little OBs got me an equally lubbly cake from Brunetti's!!
Oh my goodness, that completely blew me away, what a bunch of sweethearts they are. My proud leo head cannot get any bigger with all this attention focussed on me. Thank you so much!
After an entire day spent pigging out on sweets (and very little else), I truly believe I had cake and donuts coming out of my eyeballs so I was really looking forward to seeing my big sweetheart, who drove all the way over to take me out for dinner and we enjoyed a very scrumptious meal at a local trendy eatery and no more sweets for me.
Thank you friends for making me feel super special for one perfect day.

La La La La - I'm a little bit tipsy... gimme another glass of that pink champagne
It's 3 days and counting and it's Happy Birthday to me
I don't want to be self-centred but damnit, the older I get the more leo I become and the world does revolve around me :)
