Considering its been a short week this week (Monday being a public holiday), its been an extremely long one!!
But thankfully its Friday, its payday, and there are plenty of celebrations going on this weekend. Today is my Daddy�s 50th birthday so tonight I am off to the pub after work for drinks with him, his best mate and his work mates (who I don�t know!). I�m hoping that since I will no doubt be the youngest, and the only girl I will get plenty of drinks bought for me *laughs*
Then tomorrow its over to the parentals house during the day to help my mum prepare food and stuff in readiness for the arrival of the rellies, family friends, Bee, Ali and Dan and P. Yes that�s right, P is braving meeting not only my parents for the first time but the rest of my family!!
I keep trying to convince him that its not a big deal and that meeting them this way is much easier than meeting them on a Sunday afternoon when its just them, me and him. After all they can�t grill him for 2 hours. Plus the addition of alcohol will surely make things a lot easier??? The thing is I haven�t taken a boyfriend home to meet my parents since�.erm�.1997! And believe me that is no exaggeration! I was 20 years old and it was easier then�I lived at home, they could meet for brief moments when picking me up to go out. This time I am actually taking him home to meet them!
Fingers crossed they�ll like him as things are going well for us at the moment, so much so, that we have even booked to go on holiday at the end of August. 15 and a half weeks to go (not that I�m counting of course!)
Anyway, I guess I should try and pretend I am interested in work and finishing eating my tuna salad.
