Rare please!!!

Last night after work the girls from the office went for a bite to eat together... We decided to start off in the pub across the road with a glass of wine before heading up the road to the restaurant for our meal. Those that know me well, will know that I don't eat a lot of red meat, my main food intake is chicken or fish and loads of vegetables....  But when i get the chance and go out for a nice meal I will order steak... Of course to me there is only one way to eat your steak and that is RARE!!! yes I am the person who likes to see some blood when cutting into my steak.  Now why is it that whenever i do order steak and ask for it rare do I get the strangest looks from the waiter...   Last night one of the girls who joined us was a vegetarian...  So naturally i warned her before we got there that I would be having steak and that it would be bloody, so if you are put off by that please don't sit next to me... So why do I like it rare?? mmmm... well this must come from

Another night on the Town.... Can i handle it !!!!

Yes it seems my younger counterparts have surfaced and are keen to go out again this Saturday night.. So am I up for it again???  Why not.  I don't get to do this very often and I'm sure I can handle one more night out on the Town... and besides its a long weekend ahead so I will have more time to recover... Of course now  I will need to find something to wear.... Any suggestions??? Thankfully I wont have any snow to deal with this weekend - well so far there is none forecast which means I wont freeze half as much..  and of course it will be safer walking around in heels.. Well some shopping is on the cards the next few days I think.. Question is can these young ones keep up with me???  I hope so - but they don't seem to make them like they used too...

The day after the night before...

Well I survived the night out and had a great time... Even though I literally froze my butt off while walking from one place to the next... I stuck to the plan and wore my chosen outfit, and was glad I took the black leather jacket with to keep me warm during our walk from one place to the next.. Started off with a few drinks (a couple of glasses of wine and about 3 Raspberry sours shooters before we went out), meant that i didn't feel the cold too much - I'd hate to think how it would have been if I was completely sober. The only downside to the evening was when, at one of the venues, I went to the little girls room to look for my friend who's birthday it was, and after making a wee* (excuse the pun)  pit stop myself, when I returned to the bar I noticed that the group of 8 or so had left... No way.... They have left me behind... I was not happy..  although I had an idea as to what the next stop would be, I had no idea on how to get there and in which direction I s

Snow...... Be gone now!!

I can't believe it is snowing again.... Don't get me wrong I love snow I really do but when it is threatening my night out and making me have to rethink my choice of outfit for the night I am not a happy puppy... This long awaited night out is still happening so far. And I refuse to change my planned outfit. Black shorts play suit and knee high boots, yes I may freeze but I guess I'll need to drink a bit more to ward off the cold, and no I'm not talking about drinking coffee.... Watch this space for my report when I have surfaced from the aftermath. It will be an aftermath as this is the first proper night out on the town with the girls in 4.5years. Welly road beware, you don't know what's about to hit you x

Power Songs...

I've decided to update my running play list and include a few new Power Songs to help me get to the 10k mark in under an hour.... It has been hard work the last few weeks, with the weather trying to stop me from achieving my goal and of course my injury seems to be trying hard to rear its ugly head again... So I have now updated my play list to include some old favourites and some new ones.  So my new power song list its a bit of a scramble, and no they are not too slow to be power songs, if you know them you will understand why I have included them...  Power song 1 = Mind Demons by Suzi Q Power song 2 = Sealed with a kiss by Britney Power song 3 = Black Velvet by Alannah Myles Power song 4 = Gorilla by Bruno Mars Naturally my planned night out this weekend with a group of girls is going to be chaos and is certainly bound to cause some disruption to my training, but I haven't been out on a night out in far too long and I think I am allowed to "let my hair down&quo

I'm a Survivor

Well I did it. I survived the intense Zumba session tonight. It was hot and sweaty and awesome. The term drowned rat comes to mind, I have never walked out a session where my ponytail was soaked to the end and ever part of my visible body was a bright pink colour. Not sure if I will be able to move much tomorrow but hey no pain no gain. I am now showered and relaxing in my onesie watching Elementary. Yes a onesie, I pull it out when I need comfort which I certainly am in need of now. All I can say is I am glad these intense sessions only happen every three months. That's it for now all. Sleep tight. But I may need some help rolling out of bed in the morning. ;)
