Birthday 2009

My birthday was a pretty quiet affair this year. No-one could really afford to do much and I was still a bit ill with a cold I couldn’t shake. I met up with Claire and Tony at Zero Degrees (I know, not very original but they were meant to have a new menu!). When Nick and Rob arrived we headed for FOODS! It wasn’t until I got home I realised my weird pizza that was meant to have noodles on it was noodle-less. Hmmm that’s not fair! I think next time I’ll go back to the Goat’s Cheese one, I swear it’s the best pizza EVER!

C&T got me some more vinyl figures, I swear I need a display cabinet for all these cool little plastic beasts and N&R got me some chopsticks from their trip to Paris. They turned out to be the same kind I’d bought Claire a few years ago which wasn’t a problem for me as I’d very nearly not given Claire hers as I fell in love with their little faces Good timing too as I eat loads of stir fries and my chopsticks are getting old.

Paul & Chris joined us later at the Purtle and as if to prove how old I am, I went home early! I knew if I left before 22:00 I could get a train and then a lift home. After that and I’d have to pay out almost £30 for a taxi. Sod that! It was a good night spent discussing Venture Bros and films that make us cry. I do miss going out and having mad rants with people, it’s so unfair that no-one seems to be out any more. I can’t afford to go out on the off-chance I might bump into people now. Argh, I need a job! I need money! I want to have a social life again!
