Hmm this is the latest my blog has been since it’s reincarnation! All I can do is apologise! I’ve kindof taken to being a recluse since i started working again.. I’m such a pussy. I don’t know what’s going on! It shall change soon. On with the week..
Monday – My first day off all weekend! I spent the whole day vegetating, watching The Simpsons, family guy, and i discovered that Peepshow is actually pretty funny.. in a strange sort of way. I was expecting a courier to come with a delivery, but it didn’t. Went for biggest shop i’ve done in a long time with nick in the flower mobile. Asda. Spent £30 on absolute shite. I bought some of Sams 10p noodles, which i shall experiment with, and if their not too bad, i’l buy £10 worth(100 packs of noodles!) Didn’t do much at night, I’m sure i crashed out very early!
Tuesday – Working 12 – 8 at biddys. It wasn’t very busy which was nice. I went to pick up some posters from a copy shop just past the Cowgate, however for varying reasons i had to make three trips back and forth! Bit of a pain, but it meant I had done a fair amount of walking. Got to listen to some biffy on my pod too. I had geared myself up to finish at 8.. and then i found out i was on till 10.. Those last two hours dragged like a mother fucker. An absolute mother fucker. Got home, had some food and went to bed.
Wednesday – Woke up and i could feel a cold coming on.. great. Ben picked me up and we went to his to work on his set for the following week.. A slow start, but by the end we were cooking on gas. We hit 90 on the way back, and just thinking about it – I don’t think I’ve gone that fast for months, I almost never go on the motorway or anything! It felt really weird haha. Got back and went to bed.
Thursday – Up early for some fun at the EICC! I woke up and felt absolutely disgusting. Stocked up on Lemsips and headed in. Piss easy day, nothing going on. Probably a good thing as my head was away with the fairies. Got some good duck stir fry for lunch, then got home and put on my teaching hat. My laptop is missing drivers for burning CDs.. So i need to find that. I was planning on going straight to bed once i got home, however, John phoned me and so came round and we played Guitar Hero for a couple of hours. Just before that, I discovered that we have a lot more channels than i thought. I spent like 30mins watching a programme about Cars on a factory line, and then i watched something about body armour. Pretty interesting.. but i have no idea why i was watching it!
Friday – Thus starts my weekend of work.. 8-5 Friday, 8-5 Saturday and 8-5 Sunday. Brilliant.
Friday started off cool.. Found out the reason I was starting at 8(Breakfast for the hotel next door), and also found out I’m gonna have a 6.45am start the following Friday! In a pub! How is that possible! Was a fairly average day, that pub is never dead, it was fairly busy from about 10. Nick and Kara Brown Hair came to visit me. Just before i went for my lunch(like my lunch was sitting there ready) I had to do an order of like 12 pints. Nightmare. Ate my burger. Gillian came in aswell! I miss her. She had some sticky toffee pudding, which i am determined to have one day! The good thing i guess, about finishing at 5, is that you get to leave just as it starts to get really busy. All the staff are coming in for the late shift, and your just like ‘byeee.’ Got home and was ready for a snooze. Although after being in for 3 mins Kev rings the bell. Oh well, play some fifa, have some pizza. I was considering having a couple drinks but then i had to give Nick £5 from craig(oh i still owe craig about £8.. forgot about that) which i was gonna use to buy my cans. Loads of nicks friends came round, and were tempting me to go out.. but i resisted..! I did have a couple cans which KBH and Claire McGrath, an arm for a leg and a leg for a bath gave me. Turns out Claires preferred humour is Math. She kept cracking off these bad jokes about algebra and stuff. A couple of Nicks friends from Canada were there, they were pretty funny – i could never tell whether they were being serious or taking the piss. About 10ish they all headed out to see sash. I watched southpark then went to bed. I got next to no sleep, due to Nick and Co singing/ringing bells and whatever! Not bothered tho, cos I’ve done it to him in the past!
Saturday – Early into work, It’s such a struggle getting in after such little sleep! I managed to get some cheerios down me before i left though. It was a fairly typical day. There was a stag party in from 930, so funny – they were just shouting ‘1,2,3,4,5’ then collapsing with laughter. They were making funny whistle noises too(not sure how to make it into an onomatopoeia but i’l try) ‘whooooop.. whooooo’ So funny. Another Irish stag party came in and basically spent the whole weekend in the pub. They went Go Karting. Irish people use funny words(yoke for example) – One of them asked me if there was a quier pub(not queer – i gave them a funny look and he was like i’m not a poof haha) I have no idea what quier means. I then started using Scottish words to confuse them – like Braw, Ken, and Ya Filthy mother fucker, wheres my money? I think i had soup and a sandwich for lunch. Pretty good. Mike from the tron came in and was like ‘aha, the tables have turned’.. turns out he’s a tour guide now. Same script – It get’s properly busy just as i finish, great. Said hi to john then left. Back to the flat via Farmfoods where i got some haribo for movie night. I can’t remember what i had for tea. (btw, I am taking ages to write this blog! This is me just coming back to finish it a week after it was due(due for who?))
Aidan and Mike came round and we watched Scotland get humped.. Perfectly good goal chopped off, but we still weren’t gonna win. Had a couple beers, i was doing(for the first time ever..) spacers. i.e. the thing that the health board tells you to do when your drinking.. beer, then a glass of water, beer, then a glass of water etc etc. Steel came round after the football and we watched casino royale.. totally don’t haven’t clue what that films about. The funniest thing ever though, is the Richard Branson cameo. Watch the film and in the bit at the Airport, when James Bond, James Bond, goes through the security scanners, Richard Branson is just standing there with his hands up, looking at the camera. I swear to god i have never laughed so much. Apparently, he actually appears 4 times in the film.. as an easter egg if you know what i mean. We could only spot him the once though. We spoke about johns latest career choice – instead of joining the police, he has now decided to use his (massive) muscles in the pastry chef industry(a booming industry that it is). Good for him.
Sunday – 8-5 aaaagainn.. Pretty quiet day, a lot of hungover irish folk getting breakfast! I can’t really remember what happened tbh, standard day. Went up to my folks after work and had a bath some tea, and a sleep! Fucking great.
Next week – (bear in mind it has already happened).. Working absolute shitloads, Friday night will be the best night of our lives(with alchohol) Gig at the chanter(which turned out to be an absolute fucking stress) It’s all good though, but can someone please become me so i can have some sleep? Cheers
