He Swears...

Last night was fab, was absolutely slaughtered though lol! And I had to walk home from the train station in Ely to my house, which is 3Km! I was feeling very sick on the train, thank goodness for relativity, the journey only seemed to take 30 seconds lol! Tracey can certainly outdrink me though, the last two pubs I was on halves while she was still on pints. This evening I am going to a birthday party in Ipswich which should be fun. Also this afternoon I'm going round to see a friend's new house, she has an honoury room for me there and she says it lush hmmmm I'm gonna live like a queen.

I'm not feeling too bad at all this morning after the drinking, here's a nice little poem to end my post. It's such a naughty little poem, I love it. It's by Cavafy, so I'm sure Stevette has the oringinal Greek....

He Swears

Every so often he swears to start a finer life.
But when night comes with its own counsels,
its compromises, and its promises;
but when night comes with its own vigour
of the body, craving and seeking, he returns,
forlorn, to the same fatal joy.

;-)

Mash...

It's Friday again, this week I have been lazy lazy lazy :( I put it down to the warm weather. I have done very little at work and absolutely no OU stuff at all. It's very bad as I have two assignments due next Wednesday and I haven't even started them yet! This weekend I'm busy being the social whore again, and therein lies the problem methinks lol! I do promise to myself that next week I will try harder. I have two work experience people with me all next week too, so I'll have to get them working as well ;)

This week has been very nice, the weather has been absolutely fantastic, I've even caught the sun a bit, so I don't look quite so pasty and gaunt. I had a bbq at my house on Sunday which was fab, I will put some photos up from it soon because we took 100s, especially as we became more drunk.

Tonight I'm going out with my friend Tracey. I had wanted to sit outside somewhere, but the weather has broken now and it's only just stopped raining...I'm an optimist though and the sun could come out again soon.

It's almost the weekend again :) I kept my promise of last week and have worked my fingers to the bone all week. I now have a nice feeling of satisfaction lol!

Tonight I am going out with an old friend, we met up by chance a couple of weeks ago, it has beenalmost 15 years since we last saw each other, which is bad really as we have both been in Cambridge the whole time. We must have passed like ships in the night. Tonight should be good though :) I'll report back here soon...

No me canso...

...de esta jodida vida. In sharp contrast to last weekend this weekend was shite. All sorts of things and events were upsetting me. I'm not gonna write about them here, the memories of it can all just drift slowly away into oblivion lol! Today, however, I am feeling better and almost back to my normal self. Anyways, the bad happens so you appreciate the good, that's what I'm telling myself. And anyway, even when it's at its worst, you do still have to love it.

I kept to my promise of being a busy bee at work, I did loads and loads at work and was in the lab until gone 7!

Karaoke

Yay! It's Friday again :) This week does really seem to have flown by. I have still been so bloody lazy at work though, someone needs to give me a kick up the backside I think. I am making a promise to myself now, that from Monday morning first thing I am gonna work my fingers to the bone.

Last weekend was fab :) I went to Felixstowe on Friday night. Dean was having a visitor over from Australia, I've never met them before, but I'll use any excuse to go out and drink. I got to Felixstowe around 3 and Gail was still working, so I went to see Dean. It turns out he is now truly, madly, deeply, passionately, fan-dabi-doozibly in love :) And soon to be married! It is all very sweet actually, and I'm very happy for him. I spent 80 quid in the shop, it would have been more but I do still get my ex-boyfriend discount ;) When we got back to Gail's she had a bottle of champers in the fridge (she's fab!), we guzzled that in less than 30 mins, we really do have no class! We went for a chinese and then met the rest of them in the bar. The rest's a bit of a haze, I do remember at one point contemplating running naked into the sea, but was persuaded otherwise lol!

On Saturday I had arranged to meet a chap I'd met a couple of weeks earlier in a night club! Not always the best of ideas I know. So I was slightly apprehensive about meeting. In the end though, it turned out he was lovely and he stayed at mine until Monday morning (I know, slut!). We had a fab time and on Sunday night he even won some singing contest thing that could ultimately mean he gets to record something in London.

Monday night I performed my civic duty and was a first aider at an over 60's bbq...I didn't pull.

Tuesday I went out with the lovely and very, very popular Abhi. We played tennis (I was shite) and then had a meal with loads and loads of free drinkies. After that we went to a club until the wee small hours. Abhi is such a mover, I can't remember the last time I was bent over someone's knee so often...Salsa...I felt I was in Latin America.

I bought a new monitor. The old one was a crt monitor and very bad for the environment. That was all the excuse I needed to convince myself to buy it! And don't you just love the picture of Rufus. God, I wish I looked like that; although on second thoughts, probably for the best I don't, I'd be even more of a slag! 

On Tuesday I did a little gardening, my neighbours gave me some small plants and here are some of them I planted. I hope they live. 

How time flies...

Gosh, it's been ages since I have written anything here. Lots has been happening as well, all good but nothing ground breaking lol! It reminds me actually of a programme on Radio 4 that I was listening to recently. It was some song writers talking about various songs they had written (as you'd expect lol). One of the song writers was asked why her songs were often about heartache and such like. She replied that the reason she didn't write happy songs was because when she was happy and life was good she had far better things to do than sit and write happy songs, she was out there living the life and being happy. So maybe it's the same with this blog! So if you see me start to write 1000 words a day in this blog send me chocolate and other gifts to cheer me up!

I have tomorrow off work, and I shall be doing absolutely nada. Well, apart from pamper myself with dvds and phish food.

Hasta luego!

Me and Mac. Look at the gorgeous man on the TV. 

A bit later, and a bit drunker... 

Me and Jimmy. Yay! It's Eurovision night :) Fab fab fab.......... 

Me and Adam. Election night, and too much wine I think, we stayed up until 2.30am though! 

The Pub

I've just realised how long it's been since I have written here, how naughty of me! So here I am back again. It's been a busy week and a bit and I have been up to loads, all good I'm glad to say, apart from on my wallet!

Last week my friend Adam came to stay, we were good boys though and stayed in and just relaxed really, which makes a change, normally when he visits we go out into town, drink loads, eat like pigs and behave like sluts.

On the Saturday I went to Felixstowe and we went to The Fox, it was a fab night and I got absolutely plastered! I was a bit of a rascal too and ended up going outside with a boy. My friends tell me that he wasn't a minger, so I am redeamed slightly. He is an actor and I thought he was very lovely. He is going to visit Cambridge in a few weeks, so I shall maybe write about him again...

So far this week I have just been relaxing and recovering from the excesses of the weekend. This weekend coming I am off to Maidstone to visit my friend Andrew (who's straight, so I shalln't make up a girl's name for him, although I'm tempted).

Bank Holiday

Yay! We've got a nice long weekend! Although so far today I've done my washing and slept...that's all! I had such a late night last night though. Some friends came to stay, it was nice and warm in the evening and we were able to sit in the garden sipping G&Ts :) We then went on into Ely and got completely hammered! Was a fab night and there's a picture below this of me and Gina :)

Tonight I'm off to Dot Cotton Club in Cambridge, I'm gonna drive though, so no drinking which is a good thing.

I love feather boas! 

Smudge has returned to her normal place, bless her ;) 

I couldn't hold still either, must've been the excitment! 

I have been so lazy this weekend, I haven't shaved since Friday. I tried to take a picture of myself looking oh so manly with my 3 days of growth. Taking a picture of yourself isn't as easy (although it is as sad) as you think. 

Hace bueno...

This morning the weather was absolutely beautiful, I even rummaged around in the garage and found my deck chair! So I spent most of this morning in the garden, it was almost warm enough for shorts. I did a bit of my OU stuff, I have to hand another assignment in for the 4th of May. I think I'm more or less done on them now though. I am gonna try and get everything done and sent off by Wednesday. Then I can relax, especially as it's gonna be a holiday weekend and the last thing I want is college work hanging over me!

I have to say a little bit here about one of my dear dear friends, Ginger Rogers I'm gonna call her; we were sat in this lovely little pub on Friday evening after the last day of a symposium where I'd overdosed on caffeine (so had a bloody headache from hell, so wasn't gonna get pissed, anyway, that's beside the point). I was telling her about my last set of marks for my French and Spanish assignments (and I'll repeat them here for anyone who doesn't know NINETY EIGHT percent lol! And I know, I'm due a fall). She replied completely spontaneously ' God, they must be really easy assignments'. With friends like that...

Bad buffer...

Well, not a very productive day today :( This morning at work was ok, a got a bit done, not very much, but better than nothing. Then this afternoon, I started a really big job, but the solutions (buffers, hence title) were made up incorrectly (by me) and the whole experiment failed, sometimes I hate science lol!

I went to the gym at lunch time and did a fair but of cardio, burnt 300 calories according to the machine. I need to change my music I think, I'm getting a bit bored with my stuff at the moment. If only I were rich and could afford an iPod :(

Tomorrow I have a friend coming over for tea, I'm gonna open a nice bottle of wine I think, even though I am meant to be on the wagon. I won't have too much though, it's work the next day :(
