Friday Fun

So this weekend is Valentine's Day. As Bradley Cooper has not come to his senses and come and found me yet, I will be spending the evening with some of my other single girls at dinner.

Just a heads up, this dinner is not a love sucks pity party but more let's get dressed up and show those boys what they're missing.

No matter what you're doing hope you have a fab weekend.

Here's a skinny bitch valentine for all of you.

Ex-Oh! Ex-Oh!

I'm One of the Others

If you managed to understand that title, you're probably a Lost geek like myself.

To me, this show is the shizz. It was way more addictive than Prison Break and even more intriguing than CSI. No matter the convoluted plot twists or the week wait till the next episode, I was always tuning in.

The new and final season started last week in the US. Obviously it's still awhile till it hits SA and I am going crazy. I need to know what happens but don't wanna read the spoilers and ruin it.

I wish I had unlimited internet cos then it'll me, a laptop and a night spent on tvshack.com.

Until then I am totally open to friends of friends who have illegal copies. I need my fix!

Ex-Oh! Ex-Oh!

UPDATE: The gays managed to find Lost. (Haha how funny does that sound!) You guys are awesome. Cannot wait for tomorrow night!

Things That Make Me Smile

I had such a crappy day yesterday and then to top it off, my car broke down.

I don't really wanna talk about it all but still felt the need to blog. So instead of words, here are some pictures from We Heart It that make me smile.

Enjoy!

Monday's Mantra

This week I need to go the gym five times.
I believe that money should grow on trees.
I'm addicted to Woolies white peach yoghurt. Bonus, it's fat free!
I wish I could speak a foreign language.
I'm jealous of Pam from The Office. Jim has to be the best husband ever.
Soundtrack/Mantra for the week Since you've been gone...

Things That I ♥

Buying New Products

I went to the shops the other day to get my basic toiletries. I came back with a whole lot more. I love buying and opening new products. The pretty packaging, the new smells, it's all so fabulous. And they just make you feel like a goddess afterwards. I even went a little crazy and bought some paraffin wax for a home pedicure. If you've ever had a pedi with paraffin wax, you'll understand why. The Social Butterfly forsees a huge mess in the future and on my carpet but I plan to prove him wrong and make my jealous with my home job.

Full Fat Coke

I have tried in vain to switch to Coke Light but it's just not working for me. Considering I always have sweetner instead of sugar and drink sugar-free juice, I'm going to let this one go. Obviously I'm not going to go over abroad and undo all the dieting I've done. But every now and again I'm totally going to have a regular coke. The small can of course.

Bad Romance

There is no way I am getting over this song. And I've played it a gazillion times. That normally does the trick for me. This time, I hear the song and all of a sudden I'm performing the choreography from the music video and doing the "Rah-Rah..." part. Major snaps for Gaga!

Tuesday's Er, Mantra

So yesterday was a write-off when it came to blogging but we're making up for it today.

Here's the Mantra:

This week I'll decrease working overtime.
I believe in ghosts after watching Paranormal Activity.
I'm addicted to The Tudors.
I'm jealous of Green Eyes and her willpower. I ate a whole bag of jelly beans yesterday!
Soundtrack/Mantra for the Week Mean People are Mean!

Yeah It's Tuesday

Normally Tuesday doesn’t illicit such a happy response from me but any day after the Monday I had I’m really glad it’s a new day. It was so bad I couldn’t even conjure up the energy to blog. So we’ll be doing the Mantra a bit later today.

The day started off as crappy as any other Monday, got up way too early, made my way to gym. At gym, worked out a bit, watched some E! and then tried to think of ways of avoid work.

Work is a whole other story but basically the fact that I didn’t murder any of my coworkers is a miracle. When I finally managed to leave, all I wanted to do was change into my comfy clothes, watch trashy TV and eat bad food. As I’m still on my last day of detoxing I didn’t have the bad food. Or in fact do any of the other stuff. I got a call from Dexter who’s in town for work and instead got all dolled up and met him at his hotel for a drink.

Spending a couple of hours with a bestie who shares your weird sense of humour is enough to make any Monday fabulous. Major snaps for Dexter.

Just like that my week has turned around. And it’s going to get even better. It’s almost lunchtime and have a great meal prepared. Also we’re having massages at work and I’m in the next spot.

Hope you’re in a happy place.

Ex-Oh! Ex-Oh!

Anyone Else But You

Isn't this just an awesome song. I heart Ellen Page and Michael Cera.

It totally makes me all happy inside.

Fashion, Friday and Fast Food

You know what's the most awesome thing about Fridays, they don't seem to drag, they always seem to be sunny and before you know it, you're switching off your computer and it's the weekend.

Today is a particularly lazy Friday for me. Not that I don't have work, I just don't feel like doing it. Also I was at the fabulous launch of AfriChic.com last night and after mingling with the oh-so-marvelous fashion crowd, you kinda don't want to be stuck looking at spreadsheets.

So tomorrow I start a detox. I really need to get back on track with my new eating plan and I'm hoping this will shock my system. Now if you have ever done a detox you know at the end of it, you lose a couple of kilos of water weight. That is almost enough reward for the agony you go through. No coffee. No sweet stuff. Headaches. Urgghhhh. It turns you into one of those zombies from Resident Evil. That's I'm doing it over the weekend. I can sleep between meals and not attack anyone who has coffee or chocolate.

If you're in Cape Town and going to the Met, have fun. Otherwise hope your weekend is spectacular bitches!

Ex-Oh! Ex-Oh!
