It's been such a wonderful birthday week :)
Birthday lunches, dinners, earrings, wishes and love. Some of it delayed, some of it unexpected, some of it missed. And in terms of fitness alone, I think I just might've outdone myself: Tuesday- Zumba, Thursday- run, Sunday- run, Tuesday- Zumba, Wednesday- Yoga, Friday- Cardio, Sunday- run. And it feels amazing! (except in the mornings, when I have to crawl/limp out of bed)
The night festival turned out to be quite a spectacle, with the acrobats on the walls of the National Museum and then suspended on a pentagon under a crane? Caught up over Thai and tea with Ms Shutterbug and her whirlwind of wedding madness, which also got me thinking about life and it's little surprises, sometimes just round the corner.
Metallica with the boys on Saturday night. The crowds of black-teed fans, the gaping field that held all 40,000 of us, and well, the pure awesome energy that the band (and sound system!) brought on stage. Nothing short of epic. But the moments I treasured most were holding onto Prav and headbanging to Enter Sandman and Creeping Death and Fade to Black, and the foursome swaying in tandem to Nothing Else Matters. Best birthday present ever dude, gonna be hard to top that one up :) And then came the two hour crazymidnightwalkinthemiddleofnowhere to get to civilization and a cab home. Kinda killed the high a bit but hey, despite the neck aches the next day, it was all worth it.
Lotsa quiet time, naps, Spanish, reading, parental madness, sushi and the discovery of the Mindy project.
And today I get the news that the conference in Seoul is confirmed, apparently with a complimentary 2 day weekend thrown in? Woohoooo!
