Tremendous Week

Splendid week last week! I did buckets, which is probably why I'm so sleepy still now. But I shall chronic it so I don't forget, even though I am definitely ready for bed.

Monday was good, I woke up SUPER early and went to 6.30 am bikram which was great! Cycled down there and cycled home to get ready before work. The cycle there was brilliant (empty roads) the cycle back was horrific (rush hour) I cycled with a constant grimace! But I made it in piece, great success. Andrea was at the Bailey for the first time in ages so we had a good gossip and lunch together and filled each other in with latest Wellow news, once again provoking lunchtime work debate about a group trip to Wellow and whether we should hire a coach so everyone can experience the Maury's Mount fete and play on my trampoline. I can't remember so much what I did in the evening but since I went to early yoga it was probably lots of sleep!

Tuesday...I can't remember what I did! See this is why I need a blog.
Wednesday, now Wednesday was a cracker! Went to early yoga and it was full! WHAT?! But it was good regardless. Work was crap because I'm not loving my trial, but we finished earlyish because we had a SICK JUROR! Amazing! Haven't had one of them since Twomey! (which is judge only on appeal by the way, brilliant!) So I did some tripts and then met Lex once she had made her way all the way from Woolwich. We went to All Bar One (tradition before Lates!) and had hallumi burgers and pints and discussed gamblers remorse and how she should have another house party because I fancy a nap on the Jonas Bros pillow again.

After we were full and tipsy we jumped on the tube and headed to South Ken for SCIENCE MUSEUM JOY! My favourite day of the month! Unfortunately the usual crew were rather sparse on account of deadlines/dinner with Bali bound parents/sheer laziness, but sad times for them: this month's was the best yet! Celebrating the Museum's 100th birthday, the theme was party time! We had free cake on arrival (I had about five) and then headed to the morbid game where you have to try and keep blood transfusion patients alive, sick. It's for CHILDREN! Wrong! We both killed our patients and felt bad. Then we ventured to the party zone...oh my. It had everything! Inflatable It's A Knockout, Mechanical Bull, Crystal Maze stylee grab game and a bungee run! I got overexcited and had palps. We immediately signed up for the CM game and mooched around with our beers laughing at people injuring themselves on the inflatables.



Then Chull turned up and the competitions began! We played it's a knockout (he won) bungee run (he won) and I went on mechanical bull and lasted quite a while but then got catapaulted off screeching and then perved on by the mechanical bull guy, low point.




Me and Lex did the CM game and stuffed our bras and got LOADS of tokens, but only came third?! Rigged! Clearly the SM employee's poor maths that let us down. Chull had a go and did rubbish, he blamed it on tight pockets, we knew it was his poor sort method. Then Chull's friend Jane arrived and we had more comps! Jane and Chull did a great It's A Knockout which resulted in Chull looking like he was being given birth to because she held onto his leg on the final dive....


Ahahahaha! Then the giant pass the parcel started! We tried to pass slowly but it was no good and none of us won anything :( curse! Forgot how fun pass the parcel is though, I will definitely be bringing one to the next party I go to full of 99p shop presents! After we were all shattered and drunk we headed to our old favourite: silent disco! They really stepped their game up this week with some drum n bass, Sean-a Paul and You Can Call Me Al WHICH I STARTED A CONGA LINE FOR! Life dream realised there. It was wonderful! When it finished there was still an old school band playing samba downstairs so we had another boogie, although not quite as zealous! Brilliant night, will be hard to top that one!

Thursday was another short day as counsel had stuff to do in the arvo, so I hung out at the Bailey and did some work and gossiped with Mooon and Robbo. We got ch ch ch for lunch but they were disappointingly skinny! Curse! After work, I headed to Hammersmith to go to gay bingo with a load of people I didn't know - randomola! Jane from the Science Museum invited me and I thought why the hell not, so off I went. Was the most fun ever! Everyone was really nice and the drag queen host was OUTRAGEOUS! She was in love with Jane's friend GT and kept perving on him, then when I won a line she called me "The Vagina" and asked if I wanted to lez off with her! I politely declined. Our table won about four times and in celebration we drank way too much. Chull turned up in time for jackpot game and filled it in with black pen making it void, so lucky it wasn't a winner! Me and Jane had a good chat about Portugal as she has just come back from living there and I'm going next month, then we had yet more wine (this was to be an error) and talked rubbish with the guys.

A bit later, the barmaid announced to us that Michael Jackson had just died. We didn't believe it! I txt all my friends and called a few to get the info, and it turned out to be true. Shocker! It was very surreal. We left to get the last tube but I was a different line to everyone else so it all went a bit wrong as I tried to make it back to Victoria by myself...tube terminated somewhere random in the west and I waited forever at Earl's Court for another tube, only to get on one going back the wrong way towards Hammersmith! Noooo! Eventually got the right train and had drunken discussions with fellow travellers about Jacko. Ran for the last overground at Victoria and just made it (thank god because don't know what I would have done otherwise!) but as I was on my way home started to feel giddy - the train was going so so fast - bleurgh! I threw up in my cardigan. Oh the humanity. I somehow made it home (with my steno too!) and went to bed.

Friday was horrific. I was working in private diary and woke up with a pounding head and very aware that my job was TFL with no audio - fuuuuck! I struggled up and struggled over to Leicester Sq though and perked up after some pineapple juice and polos. And my job only lasted 7 minutes! Result! Sadly they were short at the Bailey, so I tubed over to Temple and worked there for the rest of the morning. But we finished early as it was the judge's birthday! Amazing! Celebrated my early day and loss of hangover by going to see My Sister's Keeper (sobfest) a trip to Homebase (love it) and then home for Bombay Bicycle Club takeaway, a facepack and rubbish tv. Ace! It was a brilliant Friday!

Getting tired, summary now, will fill in properly later.

Saturday: shed painting, steno primrose hill picnic, shouldn't but would, ron weasley, downpour, home, daz's, mojitos, 1 litre of bacardi, infernooooos!

Sunday: total write off morning, lunch at dexo, back to daz's to get my yoga stuff, failed to go to yoga, massive nap on the sofa and dribbled all over it much to daz and olly's disgust, only fools and horses, home for lazy eve.
