# Hello Pickle! *waves*
You all good?

# I am, I am.
Stretchy, smily tired. The office is quite warm, and it's just turning me into a cat.

How's my chap, then?

# Rounding off a fine cup of coffee.
and deciding which emails to ignore for the next few hours.

Then, it's lunch time, a little snooze in one of the conference rooms and deciding what to do for the rest of the day. Oh, and I've just bagged a gig to Barcelona in two weeks!
So, all in all, pretty good really.

Wanna come? That'd be a hoot :D

# Hahaha, a pale Jew in Spain.
They'd love it. I'd be followed by packs of F1 fans wearing ringlets and shunning bacon.

You'll get to see all the Gaudi though (again, I take it). Luckyyyyyy.

# It's a great town.
I love the huge covered food market on Las Ramblas. Awesome fish to be had there.

# I just had a really strange pain right in my chest, on the left.
*worries*



You know when you have a bit of food trapped in your oesophagus? Like that except deeeep inside the left hand side of my chest. My heartbeat's quite slow, too. Hmm.

Probably nowt. Stop overreacting, Fae.

Sorry, my dad's got no end of heart problems so I'm always wary.

# I've got this picture now of you as a rather eccentric CEO of a wine and cigars company

# Oh, if only!
:D

Edit: I do like the 'eccentric' idea, though. Wouldn't be too much of a stretch to achieve that. ;-)

# Are you my boss?
He calls it 'narcolepsy'. We call it 'being an alcoholic fat bloke'.

Not suggesting you are either of those things, of course. If I could get away with having a kip in a room at work (conference or otherwise) I'd jump at the chance.

Maybe not jump. Collapse.

# Well, I'm currently trying to lose some spare tire,
but the alcoholic bit is pretty much spot on.
Sadly. Ah well.

Who'd have thought a mid-life crisis would be so much fun, eh?

# We're all alcoholics more or less, though, aren't we?
I had my mid-life crisis at about 19. Which means I've only got about seven years of life left (assuming I've done it correctly).

And tires are fine. Go with them, I say. What would you rather be, fat, pissed up and happy or thin and a cunt LIKE WHAT I AM?

# Pah, that's not real alcoholism!
Me, I sneak Netto Gin into my beans when the walls aren't staring at me with their big, flat eyes of chipboard doom.

Or is that psychosis? I forget these things.
