licensed

yesterday got off to a great start with hyperviper, some of his family, oysters, chicken wings and a lot of booze. so much so that i actually needed a while to sober up after we went our separate ways (and boy, was i unhappy to discover that there's no decadent donuts at the waterfront anymore) - i ran into someone i used to be friendly with once upon a time and we shot shit until i was good to go.

i was totally pleased to discover that tgtbt also wants to go see anthony and cleopatra at maynardville - now organizing mission :)

i passed out on the couch when i got back, and woke up groggily to pick up my cousins' cousin from top road (my niece's tazz barely handled the hill) and drive to dinner. post-dinner, the plan was to go and see sherlock holmes, but that wasn't showing so in a glorious revisitation of my pre-party years i watched a random movie (a perfect getaway) with a bunch of teenagers at the nu metro in the waterfront.

cute movie, but what a random way to spend a sunday evening! amusing moment: freaking out the woman making the coffee at love, revenge and cappucino, my little cousin has intentional awkwardness down to an art form.

i fell asleep reading catch 22 - i've never had a copy in hand before :$

---
i woke up, drank coffee, headed off to the traffic department with book in hand - got through about three chapters waiting in lines, discovered that my eyesight's slightly better than 20/30, annoyed the fingerprint dude by pressing down (oops), and worried pink shirt wearers with mine. i now feel silly for spending R40 on a temporary license that i'm only going to carry for two days.

now to get going - heading for betty's bay!
