So, yeah. I've been crap and not updated in a while. It seems ginger is synonymous with shit, lately.
Had a fun weekend on saturday, having gone back to my old haunt for an evening out at Munchkin and Daisy 's Resurrection night.
Spent the afternoon wandering around Hanley, visiting old friends and seeing how much the place had changed in the past couple of years- to which the answer was 'not a lot'.
And can you get a cup of coffee _anybloodywhere_ in stoke? No. You bleedin' well can't. Not a single Starbucks / Costa Coffee / Anything at all. Tho', they did have a Subway so managed to snaffle myself a rather tasty afternoon snack. *grin*
Then pootled off to Asha 's place to drop my bag off, having acquired the use of her couch for the evening. Also met MorticiaJet who kept us all massively entertained later in the evening, after consuming some quantity of alcohol. I can honestly say I will never look at any kind of shark the same way again...
So, off we went to the Rigger for the night out. Was great to see a load of people whom I ain't seen in nigh-on two years. Was _bastard_ hot in there tho'. Admittedly, I was knackered having spent thursday and friday night in Jilly's until stupid-o'clock in the morning, so I didn't dance as much as I would've liked. I did get to use my glowsticks tho' and thanx go to the DJ's for playing Kidneythieves- Zerospace for me. That they had it at all was amazing. Cheers guys! More dancing for me next time. And perhaps a drip tray, given how FUCKING WARM it was in there. An arm _full_ of sweatbands may be in order...
Anyways, Asha, myself, MorticiaJet and Wolf (a mate I haven't seen in yonks) pootled back to the house for some much-needed takeaway food. Drunken conversation ensued, whilst watching Tomb Raider 2 (which Wolf was rather disappointed to find he'd seen, given that he was looking forward to it).
Amusing Highlights of the Evening-
*The look of surprise on people's faces who had no idea I was coming.
*The look of surprise on people's faces who had no idea I had shaved off all my hair.
*MorticiaJet's comment about a certain someone being a penis.
*Asha's mastery of the bitchy put-down.
*Saying to someone in a bout of nostalgia that it was just like being at Chico's apart from no-one having spilled a drink on me. Not five minutes later, I master the 'Orange-juice-all-over-my-pants' look. Thanx go to Martin for that one.
*Wolf's breakfast turning out to be cocktails with lesbians, and deciding it would make a rather good band name.
So, all in all was much fun and I hope to do it again sometime soon. Tho' not _too_ soon as I keep repeating my mantra of 'I'm too old for this shit...'
