kicking it old skool

Haven't been to "ex-work" in a while, so I've been slacking in the blogging dept. :)

So like a German built clock (or something like that), Morne touched down 10:05 am on Thursday (the 16th), touched sides with the Familia before coming over to my place on Saturday. Weather was freaking awesome, so we chilled by the pool and just caught up on times. It’s hella good to see him again, even more so on home soil. We drove around town a bit, chowed pizza at the old Pizza / pasta spot we used to work at when we where young pups, fresh outta school.

Kicked off the evening with a house party followed by a little clubbing at Mink. Then, by some very cool twist of fate (cruel twist of fate’s cousin) I ran into this Betty I’ve been wanting to hook up with for ages. So we chatted and danced, grabbed each others asses and eventually swapped out numbers. Got home at about 4 am and felt seriously famished. Hit this Indian street vendor in Long Street (“Best Rat Burgers in Town”), scored some spicy falafels and headed down to 4th Beach to watch the sunrise. Kickass.

The rest of last week was more of the same, chilling, playing XBOX (Mortal Kombat: Deception rocks rocks rocks!!) and biding our time till Herr DubaiBob got here. Thursday afternoon we all hit 4th (new Betty in tow) with some drinks (read: 1 part Smirnoff, 2 parts juice / Sprite) and ended up playing volleyball till we couldn’t see shit no more (although the Smirnoff helped).

Hit the showers and checked out Town (which was super dead!) but eventually we found Eclipse in Camps Bay packed to the roof with free ass. Hip hop was the flavor of the night (though it aint Morne’s thang) but me and the Betty had a great time, going all Gangsta rap on that mothafucka J

Chilled Friday night. Saterday I escorted this one particularly hot female to her Company End of year function at Moyo on Spier Wine Estate (AWESOME African themed restaurant!). The whole restaurant is a tree house practically and it’s HUGE! The food was amazing (a buffet, with EVERYTHING you can think of), the music: phat ass African beats and the whole bang shoot just oozes Africa. Nice nice! They also do Henna tattoos of all sorts (mostly African Tribal) and face paint and shit. All the lads in the Cape Town region reading this, take your woman there brothers! She’ll be mighty grateful ;)

Of course, the evening ended with a turn for the worst… Herr DubaiBob (who also works for said company) managed to skillfully lose his car “key” on the way out. Now 4 of us (me + date, Bob + date) are cruising up and down to the restaurant and back looking for what can only be described as a nano-needle in a gigantic fucking haystack! To top things off, the dumbass took the “key” of its holder (so that it wouldn’t bulge his pants. I suggested he could use the help…) so we where literally looking for 1, tiny, “key”. With “Jeep” printed all over it. (read: some lucky fucker was about to win the lottery)

This went on for the better part of an hour or so, retracing steps and eventually aquiring a flashlight from one of the security guys. He kept saying “I’m so sure I lost it in the parking lot, I’m so damn sure” but we kept looking at the table and other spots we where at anyways.

So guess where we found the key?

The EXACT spot where he first shouted “ah fuck! I lost my keys!!”

Fucker.

A serious slappage was in order, of course. This would be the second time he’s done this kinda thing. Sometime I just think he’s some kind of kinky bastard and enjoys making things difficult for himself. Other times, I think about cheese mostly.

Watched the Incredibles™ last night. Funny funny funny!! The animation is breathtaking (for serious lack of a better phrase) and I don’t need to tell you that you should go watch it. You where probably gonna anyway.

Oooh! OOOH!! I also bought me a force feedback steering wheel for my PC last night!! Hot damn, this thing is fly! Freakin aggressive too. Need for Speed Underground 2 never played this good. Did I mention I also got my Radeon x800 XT (that’s “XT”, as in “eXtra Tasty”) display card last week (courtesy of DubaiBob and the United Arab Emirates. PS: fly Emirates) so 1600 x 1200, EVERYTHING ON + steering wheel = Electronic Nirvana. The woodage is of the Mahogany variety.

So that’s all ladies. Have a lekker holiday and Christmas. I suspect I will prolly update again if I can find time in my hectic party schedule. I’m finishing off at work this Friday, the 24th (although, that’s a public holiday, I think). All of you who wanna contact me still will need to use the “other” channels (i.e. Carrier Pigeons and brothers with Cleft sticks).

Merry merry Ya’ll!
