4:29 pm - It's the end of the world as we know it
|
I'm STILL suffering from the weekend, I honestly cannot handle the madness at all anymore, way too out of practice!
Saturday night, Layla and Ruth came up for dinner, which was all very nice and dignified apart from my curry spice fajitas, then we got awfy drunk and went to the Cathouse. I cannae mind very much, Ruth went home early, I danced to Hanson in honour of my flat (how sad) then I went and got Stevie at the subby for hame time.
Sunday, went to Optimo for the first time in proper ages - since March, I think? Met Kim/ Donna/ Scott/ Telford/ Cait etc in Macsorleys and then boosted down really early to beat the queue. It was MOBBED. I couldn't handle the heat at all. It was Fraz's birthday so me and Stevie decided to have a shindig afterwards, which is all totally hazy. It was really good for a while, then people started fighting and all sorts, my bed got proper broke and about 95% of my kitchen ended up smashed and on the floor. Luckily I was too mangled to mind at the time - raging now that I'm sober and don't have a functioning bed though, or anything to drink my tea in :(.
Last people standing were me and Paul and some ungodly hour on Tuesday :s made it in to college for the 1st time today and I totally still don't feel right. Not for a LONG time am I doing that again.
Meant to be going to see Transformers at the IMAX tonight for Layla's birthday, which I was HEAVY looking forward to, but due to lack of funds look like I'm going to miss out. Again. I hate being this poor - I'm having a full on stress about how much I'm going to get for my wages tomorrow. BETTER cover my rent.
I also have a zillion things to do for college - I'm supposed to buy all sorts of expensive paper/ film etc. for next week to do my own prints...it's like, £25 per pack of paper. Help.
I also have to go out and take pics of random people around Glasgow next week - I reckon they should be providing us with stab proof vests.
Ugh. Sore heed. Home time.

I HATE NOT HAVING THE INTERNET.
Anyway, my new flat is the shit. I fucking love it. It's also be suitably warmed and partied in and draped in throws and is starting to feel like home :)
I also started college this week, doing photography. Three days in and I've yet to hear anyone mention cameras or photographs. Useful.
End of update, I'm on borrowed internet!

7:17 pm - insomnia
|
I am KNACKERED. Had a highly un-nerving dream last night in which a man with a knife came in to my room and stabbed me repeatedly, and I hit him over the head with a CD player and he STILL didn't die and continued to stab me until I woke up in a puddle of sweat.
Fell back asleep, started to dream that I had that disease from Cabin Fever and my flesh fell off all over the place until I woke up again about 3am and I just stayed awake. The Cabin Fever dream is the worst, I've had it on and off since I first saw the film years ago...just the concept utterly horrifies me.
Got about an hour's kip when Stevie got home from work, then went to my work. UGH.
Home now. Sleep soon.

Start my new job next monday *fear*
Hopefully it'll all go to plan this time!
Been making the most of my limited unemployment time by going out as much as possible...the plan is to get it out of my system before I become a cheesy 9-5er. Went to the Cathouse on Friday wi Ruth, I was ludicrously drunk and careened about the place giving loads of people banter. Good times! Rolled down to the Sub Club after to retrieve/ drunkenly shout at Stevie (the shame :s) and then pass out - after depositing Ruth in a taxi so she could get 5mins kip before work.
Saturday night had a shift at the Vale...for once it was suitably busy, and the heat was actually insane. Had a pretty good laugh - Robert, Eve, Andy, Craw and Jena were all about so no shortage of the banter. I nearly stole a man from one of the bands to keep for Layla when she gets back from Spain. She would have fancied him muchly! Managed to scaff a lift home offa Andy, yus.
Today I strangely feel like crap despite having a mighty sleep. Never mind, Optimo tonight!

I have been doing absolutely NOTHING. I hate being too skint to even go for a pint, or lunch, or the cinema. Working in the Vale on Friday and Sunday, so should get a few bucks out of that to get me through the weekend.
Watched "Crash" the other night, thought it was awesome.
Went to see Eve play the other night in Sleazy's, really enjoyed her set but had no money so just boosted afterwards.
If anyone knows where I can get a job quicksmart let me know! Two interviews tomorrow. Let's hope one of them is a winner.

Went to the Police station yesterday to get my phone, only to find two unbelievably rubbish staffers who seemed pissed off that I was even there. They looked for about two minutes then said they didn't have it. Shite.
Rev last night. Met Jill in town and went to Sarti's for dinner - awesome! So tasty. Went to Rufus for a coupla drinks then headed to Gillian's for some pre-club drinking. Too much wine later, headed to Rev with Gillian, Jill, Sarah and Helen. My entire experience of being in Rev is so hazy... Ian, Stevie and Robert were there, and as I was leaving I remember talking to Layla for about five minutes before realising that she hadn't actually been with me all night and I had no idea where she came from. I left early, no idea what time, and feel like shit today.
I need a job.

I'm just totally wasting time here, well bored.
My Mum and Dad came back from Egypt on Thursday and brought me back HUNNERS of amazin jewelery, loving it! Some really unusual stuff too... although one necklace is made from camel bones, which I'm not down with. It's dead pretty though.
Thursday night I went to the Vale to catch Daedalian, who were ace. Had a few drinks in there, then headed to the Cathouse with Stevie, Robert, Brian and Tommy. I'm going to the Cathouse an awful lot recently, I'm gonna sicken myself of it again at this rate. Anyway! Good night, I was fairly wasted, the Cathouse looks SO different without all the smoke! You can actually see more than three feet in front of you. Which, in the Cathouse, isn't necessarily a good thing. Going outside to smoke was pretty cool actually, they let us rejects take our drinks out, which was good.
Yesterday I lay about all day watching so, so much 24. I fucking love it.
Despite the crap hangover from the night before, it was Gillian's birthday so I had to go out. Dragged my ass off the couch and along to the Hall, where everyone was already totalled. Headed on to the ABC, where I controversially had about three drinks all night, just not in the mood. It was a good night though, everyone was out and the tunes were really good. I left about 2.30 with Friel because I HAD to have a chip butty. The ABC is the only club so far where I noticed the smell of sweat not being covered by the smoke. It was a bit rank, but bearable.
I need a job!

Got my Tool tickets! Whay :)
Went to see Hostel on Friday, it was a total dissapointment, rubbish. Want to see V for Vendetta on Friday, apparantly it's really good. The cinema was £6.20 for an adult ticket! What the fuck is that about? Total rip.
Went out on Saturday night to say goodbye to smoking. Went up to meet Marshall and Gillian at hers for some pre-club drinking, then met Jill, Jen, Kev, Andy etc. in Stavka. It was mobbed, took so long to get served, that wee cocktail bar bit was a nightmare. Had some cocktails, got all merry and beasted to meet Layla and co at the Cathouse. Got there and Layla was a total steamer, as per! Stevie and co arrived from the Vale with the drunkest Chris Gorman ever in tow. Chris is such a total lightweight that he just usually doesn't drink...however, he'd a four smirnoff ice, so he was fleein :)
Good night, very hazy. I stood on a wet manhole cover thing outside the Cathouse (obviously the following was the slippery surface's fault, not the drink) and landed really hard on my knee, and now I can't walk. Plus I looked like a twat.
Sunday I forked out a tenner on a taxi home because I just couldn't face the bus. I should get motivated and learn to drive. Got in and went to the Puffer for lunch with Jill. Being in a pub with no smoke was bizarre! Not as bad as I thought, although I wasn't drinking so I suppose it wasn't the real test. Layla phoned, I think she may have destroyed herself on Saturday night.
James just came over for a bit to pick up a book, but he brought weed which made me happy :)
Now I'm attempting to write an essay.
I quit my job, couldn't be arsed with it anymore. I need one now!

Rev was good! I can't remember anything about it, but I know I had fun. I think loads of people were out... I'm still not sure who...I remember seeing Layla, Julieanne, Pete, Kenny, Div...that's quite alot, really. It's all very hazy.
My parents are away to Egypt on a cruise, the bastards. I love having the house to myself! They'd been there about half an hour when my mum text me... "Hi, got here ok. Don't use the house fone for mobiles or turn the fire on. Feed the dog."
YOU'RE IN EGYPT! Away and look at the pyramids. Stop thinking about the fone bill. Christ.

Kenny and Caroline's engagement party was an absolutely ace night.
I got all dolled up and everything! Bought a new wrap dress and knee high boots, so strange, I never dress like that, I felt weird. Everyone was suited/dressed up though, and after about an hour there was just a roit of drunken dancing, good chat, and Kenny getting danced on by the singer. There was the mandatory speeches and Caroline sang, all the old timers were up dancing too. Good times.
After that, due to alot of rubbish, I ended up in the cathouse in my party dress, absolutely hammered. Gave alot of drunken chat to Chris/ Brian revol, Chris from my work was in as well with his mate Paul. They were both full of acid and generally being total necrons...it was really quite entertaining though. Saw Joe fleetingly, and gave him my last fag in a moment of drunken generosity. See, I'm great really. All in all it was a really good night.
Saturday night I went to Stevie's, and sat awake all night being amazed at the insanity of the weather, snow!! Ah, how it rocks when it's all nice and new and pretty. Then it took me about two hours to walk to work on Sunday, and when I got out at 2pm it was intensly shit. Slush...ugh. Met Layla, went for food, went to her's for booze, went to the Cathouse. Good times! Alot of people suffered from my banter that night. Especially Brian Shannow and Hutch. And Lynne.
Outside there was chaos involving cars and horns and stuff, but somehow we all survived and got home in one piece. Felt like crap today, went to work, now I'm home.
On the wee hill coming down from Lenzie train station I decked it, skidded about six feet then landed in a puddle, all in front of a crowd of 16 year old neddy types. You can imagine the mortification.

I feel so ill, I just made a cheese and ham toastie and tanked it, it's just sitting in my stomach along with last night's booze...ugh. Rank.
Last night was good, was gonna go to Optimo but changed plans to the Cathouse due to lack of funds. Beasted up to Layla's, where I stole her food and drank far, far too much. Hammered by the time I got to the Cathouse. I remember having an unexpectedly good night, although the specifics are hazy/ totally blank. Marc/ Chris got an awful lot of slurred chat. Good times though :) I danced alot, dread to think in what manner, and walked back to Stevie's, which was one of the worst experiences of my life. I geniunely could not walk, and couldn't afford a joe.
I felt terrible today - my hangovers are usually not too bad but this was a beast. Work was absolutely shit.
I'm going to bed for ages now.

Ugh...hungover and tired.
Thursday I met Freil and went to the Briggs bar for lunch and pool, then headed up to Ciaran's for a bit with James, Ruth, Hinney, and Ian. Kind of half watched Kung Fu Hustle and talked pish. Then I went to the Cathouse with Jill... we had a really good night, I was bladdered, anyone unfortunate enough to come near me probably immediately regretted it...good times!
Went to the Puffer for lunch with Jill yesterday, then met Jen and James there. James left pretty quickly, we stayed and had a few drinks. Some guy Jen fancies from uni came in, good banter all round! Laura came down to meet us for a bit too, was good to see her!
Went up to Jill and Jen's, ended up having a booze then going to the Sub Club. Again, good night!
Quiet one tonight...Optimo tomorrow I think :)

Ugh...can't sleep. Been lying in bed for an hour thinking myself round in circles, smoking, considering reading, getting up, then going back to bed. I hate nights like this. I'm up at seven tomorrow too...
Been in one of those dissatisfied moods all day. Gay!

I really wish summer would hurry up. Sick of the cold and rain!
This week's been pretty awrite. Thursday I met Kenny after his interview and dossed about towm for a bit, went to Rufus with Kenny, Stevie and Karen. Played some pool, met Layla, Jill and Gillian and went to the Art School. It was good! Jill and Layla left dead early, they didn't really seem in the mood, so I just stayed with Gillian and her mates. Was a really good night until some old school style drama erupted, so I left sharpish and went up the road.
Went to see Walk The Line last night; it's really, really good. After that met Aylwyn, Marshall, Gillian, Jill, Jen, Andy and Seff in the Griffen and went to the ABC. Beast of a night! The tunes were amazin and everyone was steamin...especially Alan Marshall, who absolutely excelled himself. My tummy hurts today from laughing, good times!
Feeling pretty hungover, meant to be going to Iridium at the Brunswick Hotel tonight to see Chris from work DJ, but I feel like chilling out tonight. I'll probably end up going though, I totally promised I would. I have work at 9am tomorrow though, another factor! We'll see.
Louise text me to say Clare Tracey's son is in the class she's got for placement (Clare is a girl we went to school with). Absolute madness, that's just too weird.

My work suck ass, that's two weeks in a row they've fucked up my pay. Wasters.
Despite the incredible skintness, I'm going to The Vale, then Optimo tonight. I've not been out in a week and a half...this has to be some kind of record.
Start my new(ish) job tomorrow. Rumours continue that Morgan Stanley are gonna drug test us all....fascists! I'll just not be participating in any of that. I refuse to pee into a cup just to keep my shitty part time call centre job.

I've been out way too much recently.
I honestly can't remember where I've been, so I'll just start with Thursday. Went to the Art School, brilliant stuff. I had a great night, jived away :) Went to a party after it, which was pretty shit. Waited about a bit for Layla, who phoned saying she was outside when she was actually in her bed...how I laughed. Tried to leave, couldn't figure out how, so climbed over a wall and ruined my jeans, gutter!
Friday, went to the Cathouse, wish I hadn't. The music was rubbish, I was hungover and tired and sleepy drunk. No-one else could be bothered either, I left fairly early.
Saturday, I went round to Sara's with Stevie, had a few drinks and watched Fight Club. What a film! The girl I used to live with was randomly kicking about the flat with Sara's flatmate...which was a bit bizarre. I said hi, that was pretty much it.
Last night I went to Optimo with Layla, Jill and Stevie...christ, I was a mess. We were drinking beforehand, I had vodka and cherry lambrini...('cause I'm so classy, like) then headed to Optimo. I was literally there about 45 minutes before I started feeling mind numbingly bad, I've never felt that shit from drinking before :(
Was sick, which again I never do, then drank loads of water, which only made me feel worse. Layla accosted me and took me to the toilet where I hid for a bit, it didn't help. After that I turned into possibly the most annoying person ever (you know: "No, I'm NOT leaving, I've ruined everyones' night, I'm leaving on my own, you guys stay etc etc... ugh) before being unceremoniously carted out. Layla and Jill stayed, from what I hear it was good. Raging because I was really looking forward to it before I turned into a mong :( lesson learned!
Went for lunch in Curlers today before work which involved all of us sitting about moaning about how bad we felt. Bunch of absolute jakes. Work was predictably rubbish.
Folk are up at Jill and Jens', I really want to go up to see folk but I honestly don't think I can move. Night in badly needed!
Three Days Born gig in Rufus tomorrow...I'll head up after work and if anyone tries to make me go to rev I'll shoot them in the face.
