of weekend bliss

Yesterday after work the girls came over to hang out at my place. Turns out the newly-shorn Pankhil didn’t go to work, so the brothers Desai were present as well. And my sister didn’t go for Anju’s play after all, so it was one big happy family hanging out in my room. I actually won big at poker, but I kept giving my coins away to the rest, so I don’t know how much I really won… and we decided to all go all in at our last hand, and Barclay’s boy who’d been losing miserably the entire night actually won with a triple Ace hand. Mysteries of the universe.

I had a really good time, we did dumb things like play Old Maid (for alcohol) and Mosquito and Heart Attack and Uno, watched ridiculous videos on YouTube (Jessica!Jessica!Jessica!Jessica!), and ate lots of good food..  I still can’t believe it was already 1 in the morning by the time everyone left..

I woke up this morning feeling like I’d slept forEVER and was sure it’d be 2 in the afternoon… and it was 9:30am. But it’s all good, because I lazed around in bed till noon, smiling like I haven’t done in a long while, due largely to a certain twenty minute phone call I had during lunch yesterday.. When I finally rolled out of bed, it was only to move over to the couch and watch this week’s episode of CSI, which was finally kinda cool. The season hasn’t seemed very good to me so far, so it was nice to watch a good episode again..

Now I’m back in bed, preparing to finish watching Season 2 of Without A Trace, so I can FINALLY get around to watching Gossip Girls.. Tonight is the singles’ Nuts & Bolts party @ Arena, although I’m pretty sure we’ll end up doing our usual routine of dinner-China One-St James-supper-home at ungodly hours of the morning.. hopefully my sister will come along after her movie, I feel like we haven’t hung out in the longest time..

I’m happy. A bit tired, and in a bit of wisdom tooth induced pain, but I’m happy. My family is awesome, my friends are wicked, and there’s a man out there who loves me more than most people know how. Life gets complicated and rough sometimes, but when it comes down to it, I’m an incredibly lucky person. Yay me!

Danny Taylor, here I come =)
