Is it bedtime yet?

Oct 02, 2013 17:11

I'm on the late shift at work tonight, and oy, it's only just gone 5pm and I'm knackered. I swear, I don't know when I turned into such an old woman.

Esther, a friend from uni, popped in last night for a fly-by-night visit. We went out to my favourite restaurant, The Dial, for dinner and cocktails, and then came home - but we were both so tired we were in bed for not long after 10pm!

Then we went shopping this morning, and despite saying I would only be window-shopping because I was broke after my holiday, I ended up with three dresses, a cardigan and two belts. And I had a manicure. But, bless her heart, Esther introduced me to the joy that is a Starbucks pumpkin spice steamer. I was bemoaning the fact that since I don't like coffee I always miss out on the seasonal coffee flavours, and she told me you can ask for a steamer, which is effectively just the coffee syrup and the steamed milk. Who knew? Certainly not I. I am totally converted now, which may actually be a dangerous thing.

But yes, I am at work, I am here for the next four hours, and I am totally ready for my bed.

real life: friends, real life: work, shopping, food and drink
