How was your weekend?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 27 Feb 2011, 22:27, 170 replies, latest was 15 years ago)

It mainly involved work
so pretty lame, apart from my dinner this evening.
How was yours?

It was okay thanks.
I didn't do anything out of the ordinary, but I've have fun.

Did you watch that BBC 4 'Rock Goes to College' the other week?
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 27 Feb 2011, 22:38, Reply)

It had gone off iplayer when I tried it :(
youtubed it instead though, I assume it was the same thing. And yes, I did enjoy it!

How was the custard?
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 27 Feb 2011, 22:47, Reply)

...like custard normally is?
I feel horribly over-full, to be honest. Dessert was probably a mistake.
(berk, Sun 27 Feb 2011, 22:49, Reply)

I just meant, did you make the custard, or did you get it out of a tub?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 27 Feb 2011, 22:56, Reply)

Nah, I buy expensive custard in a tub
cheap stuff just doesn't cut it anymore, the stuff is like crack :(
besides, making custard wastes eggs you could be using to make cake.

What brand of custard gets the berk seal of approval?
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 27 Feb 2011, 22:59, Reply)

I am actually a bit ashamed to say
that I have tried every single supermarket brand of custard - all the extra special stuff, of course. Co-op is the best one, which is annoying cos there's a co-op less than five minutes walk away...
(berk, Sun 27 Feb 2011, 23:04, Reply)

Why are you ashamed to say?
Co-op are probably the most ethical of all the supermarkets, so there should be no shame in using them.

You know what, I don't really care that much for custard.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 27 Feb 2011, 23:07, Reply)

It's more the fact that I set out
to discover which is the nicest custard by buying a tub of it from everywhere I could find it... Scientific, but really a bit fucking chubby.
I maintain that it's awesome fucking stuff.
(berk, Sun 27 Feb 2011, 23:11, Reply)

You should put together a league of custard.
Rate suppliers and supermarkets based on their ability to provide custard.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 27 Feb 2011, 23:20, Reply)

Co-op
Sainsburys
M&S
Tesco/Asda
Waitrose

Haven't tried Morrissons, come to think of it.
(berk, Sun 27 Feb 2011, 23:22, Reply)

You should, they seem very UK centric with their produce.
Once you've got all the results, you should present them in a chart.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 27 Feb 2011, 23:24, Reply)

There isn't one near here is why
next time I spot one I'll pop in and buy some custard, and then I will put my findings in a special colour coded table just for you.
(berk, Sun 27 Feb 2011, 23:27, Reply)

I think the chart
Should be circular, divided into sections and colour coded according to favourite fruits.

Today, watched a crap game, and a superb game of football, before going for a drink with a young lady, then came home.

( Agnostic Antichrist Baltimora, Sun 27 Feb 2011, 22:52, Reply)

My team won, which was good.
Although Captain Louis Carey took an elbow to the head in the first half and suffered a fractured skull.

On the plus side, him being a local lad, he didn't want to cause a fuss, so he played the rest of the game winning headers all over the place, before going to hospital after the game where the x-rays confirmed his skull was indeed fractured.

I cooked a lovely curry earlier too.

Tell us more about this young lady.

Just come back from the cinema and saw Drive Angry. Best film I've seen in ages, was laughing the whole way through. Colossal plot holes, not sure who to root for, people seemed to switch allegiances like Al changing his name, but the cars were pretty.

I also ate a lot of pig and beef in a bun and jumped over a rather large fence.

I don't know.
Not since the death of Abdul Latif, Lord of Harpole.

God bless his soul.
Actually, in the town next to me the curry chef has won loads of awards. And Take That ate their after their 1993 tour.

This latter fact is not necessarily a mark of approval.

There*
and no, it's not. Somewhere in Selly Oak has a similar commendation - and from Girls Aloud too I believe - and their curry is frankly crap.

Also, the Rupali was an excellent curry house.
I had a date there once. Think his son runs it now.

Perfect, Jeff,
Apart from having to work tonight when I got back.
But even that wasn't unpleasant - just tiring.

Alright lar.
What bits were perfect?
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 27 Feb 2011, 23:49, Reply)

I got cooked for, taken out for fodder, breakfast made for me, etc etc
And just when it was looking like I might have to go and get changed and ready to go out on Saturday night, a last minute reprieve meant we actually went to the supermarket for goodies and stayed in instead.
I watched funny DVDs and went for a nice drive. Just all the things I like.
How's you?

I'm okay thanks.
I cooked the most awesome curry.

I've not slept well this weekend though, but neither am I tired.

The 70s/80s Golden Wonder packet is still in the front window of our recently-closed department store
It makes me happy and sad.

I love Golden Wonder cheese and onion
There has been no finer cheese and onion crisp before, during or after.

KP and Walkers can fuck right off.

I've not seen Golden Wonder crisps in years.

You can still get them, but they've succumbed to the foil

They used to have a clear(ish) front to them when I were a lad.
I wonder if you can still get Fish n Chips, or Chicken n Chips?

Been depressed, frustrated and angry
Had some kind of weird episode on Thursday night where I thought my drink might have been spiked (probably hadn't), and haven't been right since. Dunno why. Have cut right back on the marijuana and might try and give up when what I have has run out, or at least take a break; could be the booze though; could be last week running out of medication and using my 2-year old pill stash; could be my brother keeping liquid acid in the house; could just be some kind of stupid episode. I've really not felt right throughout this weekend. Have been generally freaked out and my fingers and toes have been tingling. And seem to have suddenly started posting loads on b3ta again like I'd told myself I wouldn't.

I have got out to the pub however, and had a few evening meals with my folks, and listened to some music. Same old shit there I guess.

/emo blog thankfully at midnight on a Sunday when fuck all people will read it.

Not bad at all.
Stayed in Friday, went to a class party at a restaurant last night (that got converted into a decent club space for the evening) and ended up doing ketamine with a Canadian medicine student at his flat until about seven in the morning with a few others. Omare the guy was, a lovely man too. Looking at him; about six foot eight, a mile wide and black as the night's sky you'd assume like I did that he was probably a Jamaican drug lord. But I've never met such a funny and nerdy bloke.

Oh and I also got a jacket I've been after for bare time for fifty squids this evening which I'm happy about, hope it arrives by Wednesday.

Another jacket?
I'm delighted, you've not posted a jacket update in a while and I was concerned you'd lost interest in life Barry.

I've sold three this week, I'm streamlining.

just out of curiosity, how many jackets DO you own?

You shoulda seen the girl I've taken out a couple times last night, I'm punching above my weight so much I may need to cut a few of her fingers off to level the playing field.

I'm still deciding.
Sunday night was definitely not on my list of best nights ever. Was very noisy and I like my sleep. I especially like it when I'm not woken up at 3 am by drunk people.

yeah. living on the top floor of my halls. Definitely not going to be a fatty by the end of the year. SO MANY STAIRS!
it's... interesting. way more people in close proximity than I'm comfortable with though. I'm having a break at the moment though.
How's England?

Although Spring is suggesting it might put in an appearance at some point soon.

What are your fellow students like?
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Mon 28 Feb 2011, 0:29, Reply)

Most of them seem to be a bit booze obsessed, which is a bit uncomfortable.
But they all seem nice enough. I think I'll like them a lot more when the curfew kicks in and they have to shut up after 11pm.
I don't know how to relate to most of them though.
(Poppet some assembly required., Mon 28 Feb 2011, 0:34, Reply)

You're a woman of the world now though, what with your travelling.
You'll soon bond with them, and if you do find them difficult to get on with, then use that as motivation to get where you want to be.

Just throw around some words like "wicked", "legendary" and "maaaaaaaaaate!" in everyday conversation and you'll fit in like hot plastic in a steel mould.
