Alone in a crowded room

Last night. Well, lets start at the start. A rare offer of some beers came in from Shug ( ;p ) and we hit the pub for a couple of drinks. There was a big do on in a hotel up the road that some of the others were going to and the plan was to have some beers in the pub and move on to the bash. So, did just that. Met up with some people, went for a quick bit of food and then hit the hotel. Had missed Iain by quite a bit because we had spent too long in the pub but hooked up with the others ok.

Well, then it got interesting and jumps right back to the last post. The bash was a work thing…kinda whereby lots of people who do some stuff for us were all brought together. So there was about 5 people in the room who I knew and the rest were complete strangers. I didn’t do very well, the beer had not helped. Luckily enough I didn’t manage to offend anyone, but at one stage I think it was close. Some more beer and getting into the group containing three people I knew helped, but it was not great. Yes, I did meet some nice people, but I spent a while being completely lost and not able to leave for fear of being rude. It was not good.

Hence there is no way I’m going back for more tonight. I am considering a cinema visit. It can be summed by the following, P.T.Anderson, writer/director of Magnolia has a new movie out and I want to see it. Perhaps a walk to the Warner cinema in Fulham via that lovely pizza place at Earls Court I love. That sounds very very appealing, but having just checked with MapQuest (FQP), they are in fact nowhere near to each other. Perhaps just a hot dog and my local cinema.

I have some Buffy, Angel and 24 to watch aswell. I’m also thinking that I need to go out and get food soon and perhaps follow this with some sitting in Starbucks reading

It was a pretty shit week in work and I am very glad it is Saturday. Its not going to get any better straight away and that could cause even more problems. Nevertheless on Monday I’m going to see the Polyphonic Spree and on Wednesday I’m going to see Sigur Ros. I am eagerly anticipating both.

In other news, the kitchen is starting to all come together and will hopefully not take much longer and DareDevil starts next week. I know some people who have seen it over the past few days and the general consensus is that they did allright. Seen as these opinions are coming from comic book understanding people I am quite glad to hear it.
