Sunday Summary #8

Can't believe this is my eighth week doing these! Can't believe its pretty much mid March either, where is this year going?! Had a really good week with lots of socialising and laughter. Monday night work held a quiz night, and came third out of five teams, not bad, not bad at all. Laughed so much, and got so wet. It rained no end that day and I left home without an umbrella, need to have one on hand at work as I always get caught out. 


Thursday night was a retirement meal and had such a good night. Such good food and had quite a bit too drink. I had to get two buses home and by the time I got off at my stop I was so tired and feeling the alcohol could barely walk to my house. Mum was still up! I always tell her not to wait up, especially as she had work the next day. Apparently work asked why she kept yawning and she said I'd bounded in, took my heels off and talked nineteen to the dozen about my brilliant night and the best photo of the century (me and the bestie laughing, best shot ever!). Woke to a slight hangover, gutted I've started getting them nowadays. Then went into work on Friday for the retirement buffet. Afterwards did a quick run of town for my Mum's Mother's Day card and presents, tattoo consultation and found the nicest heels ever! Felt like I was dying at work on Saturday, period pains on a par with what I imagine childbirth will be like, tmi. In a desperate attempt not to go home I ended up with Red Bull, which actually worked. 


Spent today with the boy in pjs, we watched Star Wars II and the rugby. I've traded watching Star Wars with him for him watching Twilight with me. So excited Breaking Dawn is out on dvd tomorrow, never got to the cinema to see it so really want/need to catch up! 

 MAC delivery. Selfridges delivery, love the way they packaged the lipsticks! MAC stack. Result of a complaint to MAC about their customer service. Five new MAC lipsticks <3. Thursday night's heels, I've worn them several times in the last week. Peach jeans. Beautiful new shoes. Primark t shirts. George anchor jumper. Primark blouse, spots this time. Primark pink blazer. 


Five MAC lipsticks in one week takes some beating, will review at a later date as got some beauts after a nightmare. I really should stop buying clothes, soon I'll be bursting out of two wardrobes and I'll never get a third unless another room magically appears in the house. Got my first ever tattoo booked in for Friday, excited/scared. I cannot wait to finally have it done, but unsure of the unknown. I think once I get it I'll love it and have a few more as there are some designs I've found that I love. Everyone tells me they're addictive so I'll soon find out. 


Hope you've all had good weeks :)

We Used To Be Friends...

It has been too long since my last post. Missed the blogisphere so much but been so busy with family and Christmas barely had time for anything. Actually cannot believe it is now two days until Christmas. My lounge and dining room has been a state for two weeks as I slowly wrapped presents each evening and worked out what I still needed to buy. 


My Sunday mornings have been made by finding a channel showing episodes of The O.C. I haven't seen it recent Sundays but I have seen all of the episodes so many times, and have all the boxsets. It's the inspiration of this post title as the song makes me think of Seth Cohen/Adam Brody. 


Experienced my first ever hangover. I have been the luckiest human alive never to have had one before and I have drunk so much in my time, in younger years to the point of passing out (I would not advise this, it's scary plus very dangerous). It was works Christmas party, I felt great on the night as you do, stayed after everyone left with Michael & Alex, drinking more and having the funniest most random chat ever which will stay between us three. Got about 5 hours sleep and felt so rough the next day, sick more than anything. Had McDonalds for lunch with Michael and made me feel better but back at work then felt even worse. The sick feeling stayed for three days afterwards. No wonder people are always complaining about hangovers, they are awful! 


Hasn't put me off drinking though, haha. 


Had a brilliant month with friends and family, although still got some personal stuff going on, it's slowly getting easier. Hoping with some time off over Christmas and a New Year approaching I can get back into blogging and twitter. 


I said I hadn't photographed the last Beetlejuice colour, but I found it on a different memory card when searching for photos for my best friends Christmas gift. 

 Models Own Beetlejuice Collection Aqua Violet

This is such a pretty colour, although it needed about 3 or 4 coats. 

 Models Own Silver Fox over No7 Minty Fresh

 Models Own Black Magic with Barry M Gold Crackle 

Barry M Navy with Models Own Juicy Jules

Above are my current nails. I've come to the conclusion Juicy Jules is almost holographic, so for anyone lusting after the GOSH this could be a very close product. It's ridiculously sparkley and beautiful. 

That's all for now. So tired and got a busy day ahead tomorrow, with Christmas errands to run and taking my best friends presents to her. Got a lovely man to see in the evening too :) 

Hope you are all well and almost ready for Christmas
