Pain and party
I'm not having the best week ever.
The play on Friday wasn't very good. The acting was bad, the script was worse and the whole thing lacked all kinds of energy and attraction. After the play Brandon had a Sinterklaas party to go to so I went straight home and watched a couple of Samantha Who episodes.
Saturday I made a lovely dinner, drank way too much vodka and in general had a good time. It was a good night!
But then Sunday I was feeling rather weak all day. Decided to skip happy hour and actually all social activity that day. I figured it was sort of a hangover and that a good night's sleep would help me get over that.
Apparently not.
Monday I was feeling even worse. So bad, in fact, that I went home early from work. Went to work for a couple of hourse yesterday, but again called in sick. I'm finally feeling a bit better and stayed at work until it was actually time to leave and no earlier.
I'm still feeling a little bit low on energy, but that will pass.
To top all of that off, I had a small wound (probably a cigarette burn?) on my right arm that somehow got infected. On Monday it was bright red and swollen, with a greyish scab on it and it just didn't look good at all. Now, two days and some treatment later it looks a lot better. Still quite red, but it's not at all swollen anymore and the scab is gone too. And, in contrast to last weekend, I can actually carry a bag again without my arm hurting.
Having almost my entire upper arm covered in bandage also made it look a lot worse that it actually was.
On to the good news.
In two days time I will be 28! Going over to Carl's place tomorrow to sound in my birthday with wine and cheeses. They just got back from Paris, so I'm pretty sure they've got the good stuff! I took Friday off so I can go grocery shopping with Victoria, since we're having a winter barbecue on her roof terrace to celebrate our birthdays, since hers is on Sunday. It won't be a big party, just a couple of good friends. After the barbecue I'm pretty sure we'll be heading into town to get rat arse pissed.
I can't wait!
