So it was a work night on Thursday, Stu’s party v4.0 on Friday and Keiron’s bday night on Saturday. With scant self-regard I inflicted upon myself an absolute shing-dang doing including two all-nighters. How heroes Paul and Dave survived I don’t know; my recovery procedure consisted of going to bed at 1pm Sunday lunchtime and staying there for 17 hours.
Sadly this failed to fill the holes on Monday morning. The train journey from Haymarket was OK in a linear-movement kind of way. I actually made it onto the bus in Livingston and everything was looking rosy…
…until we hit the first corner and the blood drained from my head, prompting a distinct oh no moment and cold sweats and mounting nausea. Two stops after getting on I swiftly left said bus to sit – sit! blessed bus stop – and breathe carefully for several minutes. Then a 30-minute walk into work so as not to expose my organs to vehicular lurching.
Fully recovered now though, head hardly spinny at all. Rejoice!
Until Paul’s birthday night next Saturday.

I had 3 horribly intense days and nights of boozing. I spent enough money to buy a large section of a cool BMX. Bus journey back to sticksville was particularly unpleasant. Thank god for barely functioning air conditioning, that’s all I can say. That chap you know at The Egg who’d been awake forever had particularly terrifying red eyes, incidentally.

Ah, the Davey. Some tremendous photos demonstrating the the ravaged glare will be posted as soon as I get some fatband at home.

enough money to buy a large section of a cool BMX > You’re ace, Milno. I want one too. Invariably, all it can lead to is skinned knees or A&E (like the skateboard that my friends bought me for christmas) but I want one anyway. That, or a fuck off chopper.
Fatband > The boy Leo and I are opting for 1 megabit of girth next year. And a router, and some other jock shit with flashing lights. Go go Gadgetsss.

Given your recent transition to heterosexuality this is so amusing I cannot breathe.

transition to heterosexuality > Preposeterous notion.

I had a go of my friends new BMX, and it was awesome. It was the first time I’d been cycling in about 4 years, and I felt like a kid again. I had no control whatsoever, and was moving at a ludicrous speed. Now I can only ever think of money in terms of bicycles. The way of the future. I’d settle for a fuck-off chopper. In every sense.
