| So last night was Paul's going away party at the Castle Tavern. He invited me a while ago and I've been very keen to see him, however realised that I would probably know no one there. I went early and helped him and Disco stock up on Pringles and extra spirits, and then went to Ma Bells to get some money out and have a shot. Laura was getting off in half an hour so she came with me to the party.
It was absolutely mental! So many good people were there, Scobie, Darren, David, Travis, and Jamie were in one corner, with Effan and TopCat in another. Porno Greg came with Rhianne, Burton, and Gary... of course, Gary wasn't speaking to me but I had a wee chat with Greg... Its nice to know that He still makes the effort to say hi despite the fact that Gary and Ayden are giving me the silent treatment. Why are they doing it? I turned Gary down... That was my crime. bless. But, I digress... we talked to many new people and I met Jamie's flatmate, Rory who recently got a job at the Castle Tav. The party ended around 2... by that time I was quite plastered but everyone was going back to Jamie and Rory's for a party... Then for some reason we moved to Travis' apartment and hung out there til 5.30 am... which is quite an achievement for st. andrews. We hung out, drank, and talked about absolutely everything... Travis and I, of course reminiscing about America.
Its times like those when you realise why you stick around. I woke up this morning and everything went so right. It was such a Lazy Sunday, it was sick. I realised as soon as I woke up that I was missing my ipod. So I jumped out of bed, had some Emer'gen-C and headed to Trav's however he wasn't up yet. So I went to Ma Bells to drop a sachet off with Laura who was trying in vain to cope with her hangover at work.I wound up just sitting at the bar for 2 hours talking away to Laura, Steph and Toni and eating an English Breakfast.... was ace. My ipod and gloves were at Travs and I spent the rest of the afternoon talking to Danny, yes... Danny. Who is back early from the brig. He sent me an email saying that he cant wait to see me and has a gift for me... it reminded him of me... I have a feeling its going to be his blanket from Afghanistan since I'm always complaining about how cold I am. Wow, 5 days til I see him. He's not going to be able to make it in for my Birthday, however he promises to be around in Mid March.
I spent this evening at Celeste's house with John watching Harold and Kumar go to White Castle, and re-runs of That 70's Show whilst we smoked up and ate home made dumplings. Life was good. Im so happy right now, life seems to be promising now. I can sleep well... and will actually... right about now.
buono notte |
