Fierce!!

I was out with my friend and colleague Helena on Friday night. We decided to splash some cash at the Champagne & Oyster Bar. So after acting like "big spenders" on Friday, I’ll be on home-made sandwiches and vending machine water to save money at work this week. When the Champagne & Oysters were over, we worked our way down to Smollensky's in Canary Wharf for cocktails.

A group of Helena’s acquaintances came over to say hi. I don’t care for these particular women. All four of them smile with their teeth but have contempt in their eyes, so I chose to ignore them, but Helena’s slightly more forgiving because she knows one of the girls very well – I whispered to her, DON’T INTRODUCE ME, I can’t stomach those Jezebels. Helena said you say that every time we see them… I get the message!! You don’t have to remind me every-single-time.

Helena put on her plastic smile and they all said hi. Back in the day, Helena had a tiff with one of the main players. I think there may have been a bit of drama between them over a cheating man - but they’ve all pretended to put it behind them and are now very happy to wear their plastic smiles as if everything’s cool now.

I hung back and waited for Helena to finish her little chit chat, but my ears pricked up when I heard one of the frienemies say to my Helen, why are you all dressed up? It’s only a wine bar! When I heard this, I thought what a damn b*tch. I was so happy when Helena looked at the frienemy from her feet to her head said, “why are you all dressed down”?

Well if I were Rupaul, I’d do three finger snaps in the air while saying the words FIERCE!! But I'm not Rupaul, so I did the three finger snaps in my head.

Why are you all dressed UP indeed!!

Jezebels! Can't live with 'em, can't kill 'em.
