..Well it bloody felt like it!! After a long week at work, I was expecting to go home and watch DVDs with Rob, maybe go buy some dinner and basically vege out. That was smashed to peices when I got a phone call from the lady we babysit for at lunchtime. And not being one to pass up $80 for sitting on my ass watching TV. We headed off there after I finished work. The children, now nine, seven and five, were pretty good. They’re angels until you say ‘bedtime!’. But I remember being the same…
Home in bed by 12.30am.
Saturday morning I had to get up and go to the retail job. Nothing much to say about that, it was slow and the day dragged. Thankfully I didn’t get any angry customers, just one idiot I have to work with. He drives me insane. He annoys other people too, so I’m not being unreasonable.
After I finished I called Rob, who had just finished cricket, to see what was happening. We were invited over to some friends for drinks and to celebrate his 23rd birthday. So I headed out to that after changing at home.
After a few drinks the Singstar and Buzz came out which filled up a good few hours. We were home and in bed by 2.30am that night.
Sunday morning we wake up at 9.00am as it’s time for the cricket one day international versus Australia. A bloody hot day, everyone got a bit burnt. I only had one beer, yes my first whole beer to myself. Ever. It was just so refreshing in the heat, wine isn’t as refreshing. Plus I’d drunk a few wines the night before, so that was enough for me.
NZ won with the biggest chase ever recorded at Eden Park - or something similar to that. The main point is we kicked Australia’s ass! We are now winning two nil with the last game to be played tomorrow (Tuesday).
We got home at 8pm, had baked bean and cheese toasted sandwiches (everyone else had already had dinner), started watching Oceans 12 and then decided it was bedtime at 9.30pm.
Woke up this morning at 6am to the alarm, time for the gym. My one thought, where the hell did my weekend go?

It went up your arse cricket shmricket. Hahahah just joking - it actually sounds like you had a pretty fun weekend though! Even if it was quite short… Babysitting is by far the best way to earn money. I wonder if I can become a nanny! Just seems like more of a girl’s job! Yeah, me and my sister used to pull the “it’s opposite day!” when we were told to go to bed.. then when they’d say ‘don’t go to bed’ we’d pull the “it’s not opposite day anymore!” ahha, ah, goodtimes.
I haven’t played Buzz in ages! I love it! Especially since I can’t sing, so Buzz wins over Singstar for me every time! Have a good week!

I can relate to you being around stupid idiots who annoys the living hell out of you. I have so many friends who annoys me so damn much it makes me want to slap them so hard.

I know how the weekend thing goes. I finally get a weekend off from work, and it’s gone.
I can also relate to the annoying people at work. There’s this guy at mine who is just, an idiot. He thinks he works so hard, but all he does is complain. I just wanna kill him!

Paddy is one bitter Aussie! Haha.
This may sound crazy, but I wish my weekends were as jam-packed as yours was. My life consists of nothing and nothing at the moment.
We can swap if you’d like!
