Birthdays, Booze and Big decisions.

Right, so it's a blog you want huh?...

What's on my mind? What's really on my mind is this HUGE career decision that is hanging on my head at the moment but I can't really tell you about it coz it will bore you and possible reveal a little too much of myself.

So moving on, it's been a month of milestone birthday celebrations. There was my Dad's 70th, a friend's 40th, a friend's 30th and next week my nephews 2nd birthday. Yes, I know quite a range of people. There was also my sister (not a milestone b'day), my ex husband's (but we don't talk about him anymore) and a bunch of other friends - who if they did have parties, didn't invite me.

So of the 4 that I mentioned, I'll tell you what we did and see if you can figure out which goes with which.
- a restaurant dinner with 4 tables of close family and friends.
- a very well catered house party with music, dancing, a well stocked bar and an amazing cake.
- an intimate house party with food, family and balloons.
- a large pub gathering with food and a bar tab!!!
Guess all you want, I'm not going to tell you, but if you are a regular reader you'll know exactly what I did for my Dad's 70th and you were probably at at least 1 of the other 3 parties I mentioned.

I spent yesterday feeling rather poorly (yes, that's code for hangover) and watching back to back episodes of Being Human (the English version , thank you  very much!!), and today a good part of the day was spent 'having coffee' with friends. I put this in "" because I don't actually drink coffee. Instead I had a chai latte, a fresh mixed juice, some water and a cocktail.

My 30 year old friend has discovered just what being in your 30's can mean - 2 day hangovers!!!!
My lesson learnt this week - Absinthe, it may look pretty and feel harmless but it sure can hurt the next day!!
