Gosh, look how happy I am this morning! Met ticket in my hand, Plush playing through my iPod, is this a dream? No, shit no, this is real! I am living the dream!
I woke up this morning and thought “What's in store for me today?” I was going to head down to the Waterfront but I then realised that the cricket is on, and it would be a better idea to stay home and indulge in a spot of cricket viewing. It is going to be horrendously hot. I thought life could not get any better. Until it dawned on me that tomorrow is the J&B Met. Already! I can't believe it. Can you? No, I know you can't. And I have a ticket to the sickest site, which has now left me utterly speechless. You know I will take my camera and take photos of everything I see. I will try get some celebrity shots if that's at all possible. I will try get some bum shots of all the little dirty models strutting around with their lingerie showing. I will do everything I can to just be sneaky sneaky and get photos of women while their husbands are out cutting business deals with all the other drug barons that visit the Met.
My, my I'm excited. Right at this very moment, as I type this article on the patio, I am feeling overwhelmed by this weekend. I feel like at any moment I could just snap and start laughing,crying, drinking and eating at the same time. I have no idea how to control my body right now facing the enormity of the party that Cape Town is bound to have this weekend. I just sit here, in the heat, with goose bumps, realising that if the world ended after the Met tomorrow, that we will all have had a happy and fulfilling life. I have absolutely no idea which horse I should bet on, and I know that for the third year in a row I will miss every single horse race.
I will wake up on Sunday and my phone book will be full of girls numbers...My house will be full of girls...There will be a Thai boy cooling me with a banana leaf while he serves me pineapple juice...I will have millions of rands in my pocket from betting on the horses...I will be a celebrity...People will want interviews with me...I will be driving a Bentley...I will be a guest on Conan o' Briens show...I will have my own towers in Cape Town just like The Don...Good grief, this weekend could be the change in my life that I have been searching for. Thank you God for this weekend. Thank you J&B for this race. I need to be by myself for a while now while I try regain some composure in my life.
