Swimming Pretty in the Glass-Half-Full 2012: Day 281 - We're off and running!

After the BIG night we had on Saturday night and the late arrival to bed, we were all a little slow on the uptake this morning.

Even so an Aspro Clear or two I was up and at 'em, ready for a day out with Kerry and Jason and my gorgeous guy.

Unfortunately Kerry was feeling quite zonked so elected to stay put on the lounge and watch her favourite shows - Insiders, Inside Business and Offsiders, and it turns out the Bathurst motor race (found out her dad was a racing car driver so she grew up around it! Who knew? Not me) so Jason, Steve, Fahmi and I headed out to Southend for brunch which was fab as usual.

Back home to quickly grab my light Kenji jacket as it was a tad nippy before Jason and I headed up to Newtown to wander through the shops - found out my favourite sci fi author has a new book I must wait till late November to read (yep it's now a birthday present suggestion) before Steve joined us again (he whipped home to run some errands) at 2.30 for Ruby Sparks, a movie I had been really wanting to see and LOVED. (Had a quick drink in Zanzibar before hand - just a Coke for my poor alcohol-addled body.)

Then back home to pick up Kerry, who was well-rested, and dinner at Matee, my favourite Turkish restaurant. Off to the airport to farewell both my gorgeous friends and then home to sleep ... LOTS.
