No matter what hours you work, the buzz in the air on a Friday afternoon is unavoidable. Working in a shopping mall the shift into weekend mode is as glaringly obvious as a boob job in the gym changing room.
People leave the office a little earlier, they let their lunches drag on a little longer and excited twenty-somethings chatter away on their Blackberrys making plans and deciding which invite to accept first.
Weekend fever is made even more contagious when the sun's shining – like today.
It's the first proper summer day that (fingers crossed) will give way to a summer weekend full of opportunities to wear strappy sandals, catch a bit of a tan and sip chilled white wine while looking super-glam behind a much too big pair of sunglasses.
Even though I have to work tomorrow I am LOVING the promise that a new Friday afternoon brings. In about an hour I'll close up shop and make a dash for my car which I'm sure will be like a little white Itallian oven. The thought of having to put on the aircon thrills me!
En route to my Friday Night Action Plan I'll stop in for a glass of cold something at my mom's house, play catch up, run around her garden with the adorable Titch (best Jack Russel in the world ever) and then make the two second drive up the road to meet two of my oldest school friends. I haven't seen
K and K since we were pre-teens in training bras giggling at the thought of kissing a boy! Anyways, we're meeting for a reunion dinner at a trendy new eatery where we'll be able to sit outside without coats and shivering. Yay!
I am excited with a capital 'X'.
Summer + Friday = happiness in a pretty blue Tiffany's box. Go get yourself some of it! I dare ya'...
