Thank God It's Friday

I'm in a good mood. I've got a new phone, new ring tone (yah Paul Simon!), it's Spring, I have plans for the weekend and it's Friday, baby!

Things to celebrate on a Friday:

• Best mates, girlfriends, friends from afar, new friends - whatever. Every kind of friend! They're your partner in crime - they can cajole you into doing new things or going new places, you can encourage them to talk to that boy, wear those shoes, cut that hair, go for that job (even though I'll miss you when you're gone!), you can giggle the night away together or just have one of those mundane DVD + couch + peanut M&Ms nights and it doesn't matter. You can even "we must, we must, we must increase our bust" together. Friends - they're your life-blood, they're your chosen family. We loves them.
• Mascara - big, black, twirly wands of eyelash-pumping goodness. Oooh flutter those eyes, lady - you are quarry sighted tonight!
• Super-sexy, secret lingerie - stashed under your clothes, knowing no one will see it tonight or the next... But it's your little secret, it's what makes your eyes twinkle when your mind wanders.
• Cheekbones - you know the kind, the sky-scrapers, the ones that graze the bottom of sunglasses, the ones dusted in blush, the little apples that form when you smile. Three cheers for cheekbones!
• Gossip magazines... Know more about Posh in LA than you know about your neighbour. It's voyeurism at it's best (just don't pick on Britney!)
• Sky high heels - the higher the better. Well-toned calves in a flash. Just remember - no one likes a foot shoved into a too-small shoe (esp the strappy kind - Christmas hams are to be scoffed not seen), and don't forget your pedi!
• Sequins. I know not everyone agrees with that (those people clearly didn't spend every November drenched in sequins, waiting for their big moment on the stage at the annual dance concert). But it's the party season! Time to sparkle, dazzle and leave a sequin on their cheeks - your Cinderella calling-card.
• Headbands - from Alannah Hill of course, drenched in feathers, buttons, sequins, ribbons, tulle you name it the Queen of Embellishment has it - in every colour.
• Butterfly kisses and flirting - a romantic peck of the eyelashes, sensual making-eyes across the bar, giggles, hair twirls and glossy lips. What better way to wile away the moments until your next drink is served?

Happy, happy Friday!
