Staying sane

There’s something about Fridays that makes me feel sooooooooo much better after a tough week.

This week has been extraordinarily intense that I felt it drain and suck the life out of me.

I was uninspired, I had dampened spirits, I was pissed off and I had to deal with a lot of people’s sh*t.

When times get tough, a few things to remember and/or arm yourself with:

1. You gotta learn how to dance, honey. Dance to the tempo of politics, dance your way around complications, difficult people and situations. You just have to learn how to deal.

2. When life is unfair, when people are unjust – you don’t have to do the same. Try to be fair. The Universe knows how to give back… and take something back that isn’t rightfully yours.

3. Chocolates. The fastest mood pick-up. If you’re on a diet, then opt for Godiva’s 70% cocoa dark chocolates. Yummers.

4. Alcohol. Red wine. Chardonnay. Margaritas. Vodka. 80 proof. Gin Bulag. Whatever you’ve got. Just as long as you know how to drink. Never put it in your head. Take it straight to your stomach. Never drink and drive.

5. Feel-good movies. Chic-flick, Comedy – again, whatever have you. Hell, even porn. For as long as it makes you feel good.

6. Spa. My Nirvana. The ultimate way to calm the nerves and the mind when everything is just oh-so stressful. Hit Sanctuario or Urban Spa.

7. Friends. Nothing beats beating the blues or any bad trip through the company of fantabulous friends. Alcohol and chocolates taste so much better with them.

So tonight, that’s exactly what it is. A laidback evening with beautiful girlfriends who will do nothing but chat, watch DVDs, munch on pizza and chocolates and down strawberry vodkas.

‘Week’s not that bad after all.
