It's Friday!
All this getting into work early has already altered my sleeping patterns. Last night I was drunk on the best part of a bottle of wine and in bed by 10.40pm.
So today I woke up hideously early and did some chores and that.
Troubles is, I'm not even on the 'deli counter' today, and could have had a sleep in!

Tonight my mate's coming to stay and we're phoning a takeaway. Nom.

What you doing this Friday?

This Friday I am mostly chained to my desk
with moderate periods of B3ta when I need to look busy.

I had too much wine last night too.

Be gentle.

I will be in a meeting and THEN chained to my desk
We'll drink tea and eat Flumps, eh?

Flumps are too noisy for me at the moment
I need quieter sweets

Working
Quick trip to the doctor's which I'll stretch out as long as possible, especially if I need meds. A thoroughly soul-destroying day of boredom mixed with the occasional phone call and busy period, then home for Kashmiri lamb kebabs and Wii with kiddo. Saturday, chilling and housework, making Irish stew and Random Vegetable Soup. Sunday, walking eight hilly country miles, possibly in the snow.
Alright roots?

Greeting all.
Working like a mutha all fucking day, then getting trounced this evening - no daughter AGAIN this weekend.

Her evil mother has taken her away to attend a family party.

And I've been roped into working on SUNDAY FUCKING NIGHT. Really not on.

Load of old testes, eh?

A very good mate's band that isn't my cup of tea at all are playing tonight up the road from my house. I have seen them what seems like 8 million times and they do nothing at all for me, but he's one of my all time best mates.

Am I allowed to lie about something and not go? Telling the truth is not an option here.

'Sorry mate, your wife can't really sing and your middle-of-the-road indie rock makes my ears cry with boredom so I am avoiding your show like the fucking plague'
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Fri 19 Feb 2010, 8:49, Reply)

I think
'I've seen them a million times and I've been invited to a party where there's a cracking chance of a shag' is the way to go. What mate can ignore his fellow man's chance of getting his whistle wet?
( Noeli overtheshoulderboulderholderthingstraplatchboobs, Fri 19 Feb 2010, 8:52, Reply)

Ah - but what if he says
'wow great a party - we'll come along after our show' - then I'll have to start digging deeper into lie-land.

'Errr actually you can't come. The area's been sealed off by the police - some sort of biohazard I think'

I can't come tonight, much as I'd love to,

and then tomorrow

'I'm alright now - it was a false alarm. Turns out it was just a sore toe'
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Fri 19 Feb 2010, 8:57, Reply)

Honesty is the best policy, though, really, eh?
'Mate, I've seen them loads of times and the novelty's worn off. I'll come out for a pint with you to say hello for half an hour or so then I'm off.' No apologies needed, no offence caused, clear consciences all round.
( Noeli overtheshoulderboulderholderthingstraplatchboobs, Fri 19 Feb 2010, 9:04, Reply)

He'll be mortally offended.
Being a wet indie type he's hugely over-sensitive. I once made a crack about his receding hairline and it took him about a year to get over it.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Fri 19 Feb 2010, 9:07, Reply)

Haha fuck.
How about, make a weak joke about his expanding waistline, then tell him his band's shit. He'll be so mortified about his beer gut he'll take the latter as good news.

Shoegazing bender?
Just go to the gig and mosh furiously, like a white shirted skinhead at an early Skrewdriver gig, complete with headbutting and gobbing. You may then find that he will forget to tell you about any subsequent gigs.

My mate had drunk a pint of mixed spirits
out of a Thermos flask just before the show*. I think the alcohol level in his spew probably saved the day.

If I rush the stage
and grab his wife's tits that would also do it.

Sounds like a plan
Grabbing HIS tits might be an even safer bet

and run off with his beautiful new Fender Jazzmaster...

Last night
I had apiffany (epiphany) while driving home, and realised I need to be more patient, understanding, supportive and generally just there for someone for a wee time while they are doing something they have to do.

So today I woke up unstressed and not tense for the first time in a long while, which is a rather nice feeling.

It is also payday

Double win.
Soon enough, every day will be pay day. Working for cash is going to kick arse.

Yep
also passed on the out of hours phone to someone else so not got that to deal with for another 2 weeks

it is surprisingly rewarding

( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Fri 19 Feb 2010, 9:25, Reply)

Yup, the US way of standing on the street corner hoping someone will hire you for a day's labor
and then pay you a very small amount of cash is the way to go.

I keep thinking about getting lashed tonight
but recently alcohol's given me the amazing ability to have really fucking terrible sleep from about 3am if I've had a few before I put my head down. I'll wake up at 5am and not be able to get back to sleep, and I need sleep... So no booze for me :(
