Perfect Friday Cocktail

It's Friday Happy Hour!

Lychee Martinis' at The Post Bar, Singapore

Lets see what is on the dear lady's drinks trolley tonight?  A lovely selection of Betty Draper inspired hors d'ourves...and martinis'!


Dear Lychee Goddess,  

How I miss thee.  I have a wee confession to make.  Lately, my mind has been well...absent from the real world.  

Don't panic, the house has not been invaded by burrowing hobbits...nay, that shadowy figure with the unkempt hair, cross-eyed-fuzzy-brained-dazed look walking the passage ways at ungodly hours of the night...is actually me...after a few hours of writing.

And the post-it notes stuck to forehead, randomly scrawled words on pieces of paper, tea gone cold on desk...well they are merely products of my hours spent alone thinking in that room.

Although I haven't developed the hermit crawl as yet, I will admit that these days I am drawn to a hobbit hideaway with PC and WIP vs. socialising in the flesh these days.  Am I alone on this thinking? We can always face book, twitter, text, Skype from the comfort of our shabby sofas...right?  I know, I know...its not the same.  Don't worry as soon as I've finished this chapter, I'll be right out.   It's just that, well...I could be sometime.  I don't know how long...just please save me a barstool and a long cool drink!

Mwah
XOXO

PS: How about you?  Has writing kept you in your own world, closeted up away from friends?


A/N:
The best cocktail in Asia? -  The Lychee Martini at the Post Bar, Fullerton Hotel, Singapore.  The lady doth recommend tasting a couple...just to be really sure I'm not making it up.

Hi Betty, *waves* lovely to see you. I'm having a lovey time in my writing world, sometimes I could get lost in here forever...alas I need to eat and er, drink. ;)

Thanks for the drink, it was fab. Have a great weekend!

Yeah, I just tell the world I'm working on my pale.

If it wasn't for my day job I'd almost never leave my home, or my computer.

Cute place you got here. Thanks for you comments on my blogfest.

Yeah, sometimes I find that I've closed myself off from everyone except family and work and writing. My good friends understand why though and they don't abandon me!
Talei said…
Hi D, I enjoyed your blogfest post. One day I will do one. I am constantly glued to my PC and recently bought a netbook which I take everywhere with me...well except to bed. Thanks so much for stopping by. :)
Talei said…

Yum, how have I missed my favourite hour of the day over here?! I'll have three please. Cosmopolitans.
Talei said…
Ha! I'm sending over a tray of Cosmopolitans - will swap for 2 cupcakes and some of that Grunt! :)

I just read all about lychee syrup versus canned fruit in a martini.
Yes, I want one of these. And, now that I've totally procrastinated, I should get back to writing.
I'll bet BevMo had lychee syrup. Maybe.

Hi Erin, I'm sending one of these delicious martinis over to you! They're essential to writing breaks! ;) Thanks for the follow, and do come again!
