Phew, can’t believe yet another weekend has come and gone – before we know it, May will be over already! This past one has been really great, a perfect combination of party time, me time, down time and work time – resulting in a very relaxed and rested Rox, ready to kick off another week.
Friday: Cape to Cuba Cigar Bar
Friday night was pretty epic, DT fetched me around 11h30ish or so and we headed to Neighbourhood for Patron. We had a huge giggle at this older guy playing wingman to his adorable little 18 year old friends, and after first making him buy us a round of Patron, we let them join us for a while. Cool as the vibe was at Hood though, we decided to find Blade at Cape to Cuba. He was at the Cigar Bar upstairs, which meant vanilla cigars, more Patron, shmoozing with some of the city’s up and coming comic legends and a man dressed as a nun before going on to Zula for some epic drum ‘n bass courtesy of Niskerone and I think a Jager-Bomb before they called last rounds and I eventually found a cab to head home somewhere around 4ish.
Saturday: Well Spa Aromatherapy Massage
Waking up early on Saturday morning was kinda rough, but not as bad as I had feared. I had an aromatherapy massage booked at Well Spa (you can read the full review over here), which was incredible – seriously the best thing ever! After a bit of errands on Kloof I headed home, planning to be active and get out into the sunshine, but eventually bed was proving hard to resist. Only managed a cat nap, but spent the rest of the day and night couch bound – it was awesome.
Sunday: Bare Feet and Kittens = Bad News
Sunday was pretty busy, woke up relatively early then chilled in bed with coffee and cats. A totally unsuccessful mission to Gardens Centre in search of a coat followed (and since I walked, meant I could forgo a run later without feeling too guilty) and then some grocery shopping (again, walking home with heavy bags of cat litter and such is a good workout). I was then brutally attacked when I was on a phone call sitting on my bed – kitten is getting into the ‘teenage’ phase and has moments of frantic wildness where he races across my bed… sadly my bare foot happened to be on the bed at the time, still throbbing a bit but not too bad! Had such a good nap afterwards that I couldn’t quite remember if I had even been out early – was that good, then I worked a bit… now it’s almost over.
I’ve been half watching Fast and the Furious (purely for Paul Walker, hehe), now I think I will watch a bit of Meet Joe Black until Brad gets run over (this being the best part), and then I’m going to have an awesome hot bath with my Neutrogenica Stress Relief Oil and then finally… feather duvet bliss at last.
Nothing like a good weekend to restore the zen. 
Grief ya, these weeks are going far too quickly, can you believe that we’re almost half way through 2010 already? I find it difficult to actually put the dates together, usually months feel like they went quickly and you can sort of narrow down the understanding, but this time I can’t, it’s just flying past!
I didn’t rest as much as I’d hoped to, silly decisions of staying up late surfing the net, etc. and I’m going to pay the price for it. I’ve slacked on the running, I need someone to kick my butt this week and _tell_ me to go run _every_ evening, mon-fri!
Guna head out to get a suit this week for BB’s party on Saturday, actually looking quite forward to getting styled up and sipping on some bubbly! I’ll see you there
I need a massage. And BAAAAADDDDDDDDD!
@Chris, it’s insane – time goes far too quickly! Am going to suffer in class tonite, did no runs at all over wkend, hehe. And amped to see your suit on Saturday, yay.
@Dolce, I hadn’t been for one like ever before, it was so good! You must give Well Spa a try, seriously the best thing ever!
