So this week Gail my Scottish twin and I set out to have a week off the drink. It seems all I am doing here is working a few days, drinking my wages and day dreaming. I need to sort myself out.. I just want to be swept off my feet!
Sober week started with my work trial at a cafe called White Elephant, it was pretty chaotic, they were not organised and the 3 hours did go really fast but after that I was picked up by Gail and Karine for an adventure to see what else was in Margaret River, we ended up wine, cheese, Venison and chocolate tasting before having a swim.
Tuesday was an amazing afternoon spent with a few girls from Bootleg, we found an awesome spot on the river and swam around 100m up to a rope swing where we spent the afternoon gossiping, swinging and giving ourselves mud facials!
Thursday came along and after serving a charming group of Irish men of the Granddad type beers all day I was well ready to get my body loaded with alcohol so off we went, pre drinks at a friends then to the Tav, it was a laugh to be wearing green, Irish paraphernalia and drinking Guinness! The photos below will show just how happy we all were!
Friday came and work went then I was being driven to fro so I downed a few beers and was ready for a party but was disappointed go learn no one else was! So early dinner at the pub with Za and Adrian and then to bed for me .. a week of no drinking was totally a fail. Even Gail turned me down.. oh how sensible she is!.. or was.
Working at a brewery I find it so hard not to crave beer all day! So when 6:30pm rolls around and then the free staffie is consumed it was not hard to twist anyone’s arm into heading to the Tav again, a few of us from work met there and had a laugh playing our own Ghetto Blaster seeing as the band were pretty boring.. so respectful eh? The Full Moon was in full force our moods were going from super excited to angry to sad.. at the end of our night I think both G Banger and I were crying into our Kebabs!
So this week was up down and all around, had so many laughs. I am realising I need to get my act together and get some kind of future, but my day dreams are taking over, and I think I like it like that!
