And now the mood strikes. Well, that’s not strictly true, it struck last night around 1.30 in the am. I was half tempted to get up and go typing but as my sister is staying over and sleeping on the couch in the living room, I didn’t want to wake her.<\/p>\n
Anyway to go back a few days for a catch-up. Friday was bad. I woke up and felt like shit (no, I was not out on Thursday) and so I didn’t go into work. I took it easy at home and felt much better by later in the evening. Didn’t really get up to much just some Eve and some watching of stuff.<\/p>\n
Saturday was very quiet. Slept in late and played lots of Eve. Then that night Alex and I took Hebe to the pub and had a few pints. Mair\u00e9ad was due to arrive around 9ish and was going to come along to the pub. Due to fun at Heathrow she was late and didn’t get here till around 11.30 by which stage we were well home.<\/p>\n
And in what is, I’m sure, a completely unfounded slander on newts, having 3 pints and the social skills of a newt is not a good thing. Hebe was making lots of friends in the pub including a table of nice Irish girls in the corner…it was loud in the pub and I have bad hearing and I could not make out for sure what they were saying but I think one was telling me she was new to London and wasn’t settling very well and missed lots of things and well I wasn’t very helpful. Damn \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n
So onto Sunday. We wandered down to Camden Market (with a quick comic shop trip) and then out to the big shopping centre at Brent Cross. Picked up a few cds, (Springsteen – The River<\/i>, Hole – Live Through This<\/i> and Tears for Fears – The Collection<\/i>…eclectic or what?) and then headed home while Mair\u00e9ad went off to meet some friends. <\/p>\n
A good night in Eve was had and I have a plan to hopefully make some money over the next couple of days and with some look will rope Dave into helping and indeed helping with the bankrolling \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
I finally watched through the Sci-Fi Channels remake of Battlestar: Galactica<\/i> and it’s not as bad as I originally thought at all. Nice twist at the end and a decent enough cast. Certainly would be watching the series as it came along. I’m also up-to-date with Alias<\/i> now, not all that impressed with the third season and it certainly ranks nowhere near the first and the first half of the second but it’s still enjoyable stuff.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
