Richard Wilkins vs Blueberry Cheesecake

Just back from meeting up with Karen aka Kazza the Blank One for some dessert in Civic. I had originally suggested we head to Cream (good food, coffee, service and hot waitstaff all around), however, when I showed up, there was a large private function, with lots of girls in stiletto heels and mini-dresses, and aside from me not being dressed for the occaision in my Keds and Colorado clothes, I don’t think I’d want to go in! Then there’s a hush as someone steps to the microphone. Yes, indeed, Richard Wilkins has graced little old Canberra with his presence. From what I overhear, it’s a Canberra Centre fashion do, hence the glamours walking in…

So when Karen gets there we head to Cafe Essen instead – and actually get descent (read = fast, with coffee and cake arriving at similar times) service for a change. I am so full right now! (and happy that I have met another person, IRL, even though meeting people can be a completely terrifying experience. I need more nice experiences in order to make it less scary and soo will blossom into the beautiful social butterfly that really only seems to come out after a few glasses of champagne :p)

I so don’t see myself getting up tomorrow for gym – I have work to do before heading to the school tomorrow morning (as I left a little earlier today due to being completely brain-dead by about four! but I wasn’t the only one, we were dropping like flies…), so I might just get up my regular 7am, get to work 8ish so I can have a full day of work and then gym in the afternoon. At least it’s not too busy once it gets to the hot and sweaty afternoon! And you never know, it might actually be cooler tomorrow! (or perhaps not?)
