The Importance of Being Idle

It's Not Unusual!

Yesterday was crazy. I spent most of the day looking for jobs, filling in application forms and generally being very productive, but bored. Then, chatting with Ronnie in the evening she said she was going out for a few drinks with her mates, and I said "Can I come?", 'cos that's what I always say! She said, "Of course", and pretty much without thinking I was in the car and motoring to Peterborough! Ronnie texted me excellent directions that lead me straight to her car, and from there it was into the pub and meeting her friends! They're a sound bunch, really are, I can totally see why they're her mates, and I was accepted into the group relatively quickly, which was nice. I was in a kind of awkward position there, being an outsider and dating the girl ALL the blokes fancy, it woulda been incredibly easy to be hated, but I think I did good. It's also good to put faces and personalities to the names, and see what they get up to! Last night was a karaoke night, and I actually sang (for the first time ever!). It was way fun, and something I never could've done this time last year. Then, when that was over (at about 1am!) we went on to the Q-Club, a pool hall, and hung out there for a while, chatting, playing quiz machines and so on. Sadly I didn't get a game of pool in though. Ah well, maybe next time eh? I finally got home just before 4am, and whilst I was knackered physcically, my mind was still kinda buzzing and I didn't sleep straight away.
This morning I'm kinda tired and dopey, which is understandable. I was also very poor, but I finally bit the bullet and sold my PSP. God knows I loved it as a piece of technology, and god also knows it'd been sitting on my shelf gathering dust for the past four months, so it seemed like it was time. Anyway, I got a decent chunk back for it, which'll keep me going for a while.
In just a few short hours I'll be seeing my gorgeous girlfriend again! I wonder what adventures we'll have this evening, if we even have the strength for adventures...
