Day 59 - Saturday, 15th November 2008

I've had a pretty funny couple of days it has to be said. On Thursday, I went to see Bullet for My Valentine at Carling Academy in Birmingham. It was really good. But I did get carried away, jumping around like a loon for 4 hours. (Most of that was during "bleeding through", the support band. Wow. I am in love! Brandon the lead singer [picture left] is the hotness!) But in fairness all this jumping about is not something that I could have done a few weeks ago, I didn't once get out of breath, and my feet didn't ache from standing all that time. I just had a really good night. But I did get really hot from all the jumping, moshing, and being in such close proximity to hundreds of people did get really warm and sweaty, so by 11 o'clock when we were leaving the venue, all three of us were stripping off layers of clothes! So there I was, in my jeans that I bought 2 years ago and wore for the first time Thursday night and a tiny spaghetti string vest top, wandering through Birmingham City Centre. And I didn't care one bit. I wasn't self conscious at all, I was just having a good time with my girls! I even got beeped at by men in cars and some dude was hollering out of the window at me, not that I had a clue what he was saying as my ears were still ringing from being so close to the speakers all night! I was deaf as a post!

We had such fantastic fun! Brilliant night! And then, there was Friday morning! I woke up, unable to move! My neck and back were in agony. My legs and my arms were aching and I was cut and bruised. I counted 5 fresh bruised just on one leg! And my head was pounding. There was no way I was going to work. I couldn't even get out of bed! At about lunchtime, I managed to get downstairs. I had to go over to my grandma's in the afternoon, but I knew there was no way I was getting back upstairs in the state I was in! So, I went over to my Grandma's in my pyjama's! I just figured, "sod it". Anyway, some guy was staring at me as I left the house in my winnie the pooh pj's and almost fell off his bike, so that amused me for a while.

So last night I spent the night at Grandma's. Watched Children in Need, played on the computer. It was very chilled out, but yet in comparison to Thursday nights crazy antics, I was so very bored!!! Funny really!

I'm now waiting to hear from my cousin what she wants to do today! There was talk about ice skating and clubbing, my head is up for it. But I'm not sure if my body is! It's still in shock from Thursday night! She better call soon because Grandma is going on about where I can take her today, and I'm like, "I do have a life you know!". The woman is NEVER happy! I mean, I am spending tomorrow with her, and today with my friends, but no, I must spend every waking moment with her or she whinges!

We'll have to wait and see what today brings!
