Why?
Because Number One Son is in town.
We went to the movies together for the first time in seven years (we saw Gangster Squad).
We ate sushi and raspberry liquorice and hard jubes.
We drank much coffee and ate burgers together.
We went op-shopping.
We talked rubbish and giggled like old mates, just the two of us.
We can still watch Anchorman, Stepbrothers and 40-Year-Old-Virgin after all these years and still laugh like a pair of idiots.
Oh and he didn't mind me dressing in my "squalid glamour" style.
The lad told me as we walked out the door, "I love how you just throw something together and it looks great".
Bless.

At the oppies I picked up a baby book, which #1 Son decided he needed it for his coffee table, while Unreliable Memoirs is one of the funniest books I've ever read and re-read.I swear that's gotta be Ron Burgundy printed on the boys' Funky Trunks I bought at an op-shop.
Surprisingly, when I tried them on I did not repeat Ron's words, "I immediately regret this decision".
Oh and what are the Chupa Chups for?
Sugar-loading supplies.
Because #1 Son, The Phoenix and I are off to jump around like loonies at the Big Day Out on the Gold Coast tomorrow - WOO HOO!!!
The first and last time I went to BDO was on my 40th birthday and since I'm turning 45 on Tuesday (oh yeah - you all got it right, spot the Aquarius!) I thought it was time I saw the Red Hot Chilli Peppers LIVE!!
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!
See ya in the First Aid tent - hahahaaaa!
Baci,
Desiree xoxo
