Magical Tipsy Toes

It’s 4am in the morning. I am struggling to type this out with much difficulty. I will proababky need Nita to proof read all this things I am typing. I feel this great need to type this out while its still fresh in my head and im still overwhelmed by it all.

I got bamboozled folks. Bamfrickingboozled!!

It really began when Lav said “Ok Kel…Wednesday I wanna go Timbre ok…” And I wasn’t feeling it though….but then again..anywhere with Lav is always cool with me.

The calls and messages came in on Wednesday afternoon…”so Kel, what you up to tonight..”, “where you heading to tonight Kel….” I was informed by Lav that I wasn’t allowed to tell anyone. It was secret….or rather in her words…. “Wednesday is a secret. I cannot tell anybody =)” See, I thought I was the spiffy one with a secret.

I took my time tonight. Came home after a long stressful funeral day. Headed back home…badly needed a nap….Lav called and said she was ready and the need to dress up was imperative because she was dressed really spiffily. I headed down to town cause the need for peppermint mocha was screaming my name…..chilled at starbucks and made our way to Timbre. Some people were messaging me….some mentioned they were at some sort of dinner…some at home resting…and I honestly it was just gonna be Lav and me.

Lav: “I didn’t have time to write you a letter. A before your birthday letter. So I will message it to you now.

Dearest kelly. I know it’s your birthday tonight but you’re following me to a place I want. Thank you. I really hope you have a good time and that you leave your worries behind. I love you. Love La.

Did I mention that I thought I was the spiffy one with a secret?

I was wrong.

Walking towards Timbre…my mind distracted by other stuff….when I heard a loud… “Pssst….”

That’s when I saw them. All of them. My office buds, my cousins and best buds and external buds of sorts. Standing there….grinning and smiling…You guys got me real good. You really did.

I wish you guys could see just how much my heart is smiling and grinning right now. When I almost wanted to cry when I saw all of you standing there with your silly smiles and grins….and when I watched my best buds laughing at the corner….and watching my office buds who make work my favourite place to be….and watching all my cousins at the bar…laughing so loudly….watching external buds having a good time and trying their best to see who can down their drinks the fastest. For a while….I sat there and I watched each one of you. Each one…who have shared your stories, your life, your laughter, your tears…your heart and your mind. I could not ask for more. And I would never want to. You guys are in my circle of protection. I am after all an ex-mafia olive picker.

And I love each one of you. Very much. Yes, even when I’m angry or not feeling very spiffy.

Thank you my babies….Tonight, I fall asleep with a silly drunkard smile on my face…cause I’m blessed to have you in my life.

With all my love,
Kelly.

This is Nita typing on behalf of Kelleh who is quite drunk but still sober enough to stand next to me and inspect what I’m writing and singing wonky lyrics. She would like to inform you that the pics will follow VERY soon as she is too drunk and hoo haaed to extricate pics and put them out.

Thank you! and happy birthday Kel!

I can’t seem to concentrate on anything. I forget what I’m suppose to be doing….then I forget why I’m doing it and then I forget what it was I shouldn’t be forgetting. I thought I was holding up pretty well. I’m just not sure what I’m supposed to be doing. But the calls have already started coming in….and I’m cool with it…. I just need time to breathe and stay afloat. I need to be spiffy that way and it’ll all be good.

24th November 2006 – I wish you were today.
