Weekend Bliss

Days like these make this lovely lady thankful for the company she keeps and has her looking forward to the working week ahead.

The weekend began, with this blogger, acting as a WAG (wives and girlfriends). Saturday morning, 11 keen lads inspired by the likes of Brian Lara and Chris Gayle (coolest man alive) - running, catching and hitting with a purpose, whilst this familiar group of ladies sipped latte's and occasionally glanced up to keep up with the goings on. The discussion was fervent, ranging from the latest girlfriend to make the transition to soon-to-be-wife (and her flawless Cartier ring) to the gentleman that only wanted to dance with his beloved at the most inappropriate times. Laughs were shared as cold Saturday mornings of past were reminisced upon whilst we clutched our lattes for warmth. The prodigal son, having made a silly shot, soon found himself at the mercy of the WAGs, being interrogated as to why one of their beloved women had been missing for so long. Quick as ever, prodigal son replied "even we make mistakes" and planted a kiss that made every surrounding woman swoon and clutch their heart.

A lost game, a quick lunch and many goodbyes later we found ourselves curled up on the couch, channel surfing as the prodigal son's older brother and younger sister sat on the floor below us vigorously making sense of the world of O&G and intellecutal property respectively. Not finding anything that piqued our interest we went for a walk around the neighbourhood. Walking around the park, we were the pairing that everyone wants to be a part of, that earthy, innocent, all consuming feeling that must be experienced to be believed. The heavens, however, decided to open soon after and we found ourselves drenched and running for shelter. A few beers in front of the open fire was the perfect cure for what was ailing us as we found ourselves snuggling and falling into a blissful nap in each others arms.

Sunday rolled around, and I found myself, with none other than Miss Fabulous, the one lady with whom all personal jokes are shared with. Malaysian cuisine, Chinese tea and unlimited time had us dissecting the events of the past few weeks. More laughs and more reasons to count ourselves lucky later we found ourselves saying goodbye whilst making plans for the week ahead. Sunday evening saw the return of Miss Adventurer back to my life - a perfect finish for a near perfect weekend.

Here's to more weekends, falling more in love.
