Current mood: uncomfortable
Well, I remember this morning why I don’t drink on school nights.
Evea emailed me yesterday and said she would come round after work to return a few of my CD’s and her house keys. She’d had a dog of a day and wondered if I’d have a beer with her. I thought about it and said yeah – bugger it, why not.
I got home and was about to grab a beer when Phoebe arrived – she said she’d had a bitch of a day, so I asked if she wanted a beer – she dived at the chance. So we got into it. Evea was only there for an hour or so but surprisingly, they seemed to get on like a house on fire. Phoebe was supposed to go to the movies with her boyfriend but was enjoying the beers too much, so I told her to invite him round for a few. So he lobbed round with a couple of bottles of wine and we all chatted for a few hours. Phoebe was falling asleep at the table and the young fella was slurring and talking in circles, before forgetting his original point. So at about 10:30 Phoebs decides she should make us all a chicken caesar salad for tea. She cooked up a bloody storm, I gotta say – had bacon and eggs, croutons and huge slabs of chicken in it. Probably the best salad I’ve ever had actually. Then we went back outside and had a few more drinks. They stumbled off to bed about 11:30 and I stayed up till 12.
Then, this morning, I used the snooze button on my alarm for the very first time in my life. I bought a bacon and egg roll and a chocky milk on the way to work, I feel very average and a splitting headache comes and goes every now and then. I can’t type properly and I’m getting car-sick looking at the keyboard………..
But to answer your question – she seems like a pretty nice girl, and the boyfriend seems like a decent bloke – pretty quietly spoken and respectful.
Now, back to my rules of life – I DO NOT DRINK ON SCHOOL NIGHTS……..and next time I WILL REMEMBER!
Bring on the airconditioning and the comfy lounge to lay on.
