Chaos-23

Well, going out was good. Shame we went for a meal though :o/

We thought we’d head to Santa Fe cos we’ve both been there loads before (when Paul was head barman I lived there, working my way through all 16 tequilas and getting him to invent new cocktails for me). Once that was decided we had trouble deciding on our order and so settled for burgers thinking that would be the safe choice. Chris went for one with Bacon, mine with mushrooms.

And we waited…

..and waited…

Eventually a waiter arrived with 1 burger. Obviously this was wrong so he disappeared for another 10 minutes. He came back with 2 burgers, unfortunately both with bacon. There are many things I can force myself to eat, pig just isn’t one of them. So mine was sent away again.

About 5 minutes later mine arrived, this time with mushrooms, we got 2 free drinks and all seemed well… until I cut into my burger and the pinky red flesh oozed… it was raw. I’m not really a meat eater anyway, I need it clearly dead and almost burnt before I’ll go near it so that was it for me. I concentrated on the chips and just wanted to leave as soon as.

THEN Chris has to suddenly rush off. I’m fairly sure this isn’t a good thing. He came back fuming. He never has to throw up after eating, this was just not right.

Anyhoo, cut to me leaving and Chris demanding money off. We only paid for half the meal and 1 drink in the end. Though, to be honest, we probably should have been able to get the whole thing free. It’s such a shame cos Santa Fe has always been nice before. :o(

The pub wasn’t great either. James & Cheney were balls of excitement about the US Road Trip they’re off to in a couple of days and Sam collared Chris immediately.

I think I spotted & Ross at the bar, but I was too intent on just getting home to say hello. So, Hello!! :oD

Meeeeow! Finally, I’m leaving the house, and it’s not for work :o)

Only popping out for a drink or two, and only to boring old Reading as far as I can tell. But WYH it’s not sitting in on the internet for yet another night in a row!

Talking of internet, I’m sort of getting my website up together. For too long now it’s just been a place to hold pics and the messageboard’s just been for me & Chris to use while work fucks up our e-mails. It’s nothing exciting, but will at least be one place to keep all my crap. I’m trying to integrate LJ into it, I’ve used php include() for now, but it doesn’t show comments or anything. I have Xoops on my website so was wondering how well the MoveableType module works using LJ plug-ins to cross-post. Anyone know? If not I’ll give that a bash and just default to iFrames if it’s not spangly.

Ergh. I’m bored. I’m boring. What happened?

Going into London on Wednesday daytime, anyone about? Considering going up on Tuesday night cos I have Wednesday off work. I might go up some time next week too cos I have the week commencing 6th June off work \o/

I haven’t been out of Reading (East Tisted just doesn’t count) for sooooo long. Feeling trapped :o/

OK, I’m addicted.

I admit it.

I can’t get enough of The Mighty Boosh. I’m even developing some sort of schoolgirl crush on Noel Fielding… :o|

I really should have updated this yesterday, but I didn’t get any sleep at all on Saturday night, so was in no fit state for anything more than monging to Quincy.

Anyhoo, Congratulations to Andy & Kirsty. It was great to see so many people I haven’t seen in years and the new Mrs Dennett looked stunning beyond words (those boots were fab!).

Saturday was also a happy day for & Vic. Congratulations on the birth of little Skye. May you get some sleep at some point soon ;o)

I never do anything anymore. Work, eat, Wipeout Pure…. repeat.

I like this though:
