one in a million ugly swine
so ruth and i have finished our observation at brighton college, and i think i'll actually miss it a little - everyone was so nice to us, most of the classes were pretty interesting and the ones that weren't i got to sleep through surreptitously at the back. plus the food was free - i suppose if each pupil there is paying fourteen grand a year it would be. it reminded me of methody in a lot of ways, and those were generally happy times.
the only downside of this is that i haven't had a day off in two weeks, so i'm getting a bit weary. still, i'm staying on top of stuff more or less, and even finding time to do some reading when i'm not passing out and sleeping for ridiculous lengths of time. i've got a quantum physics textbook from the library and am pleased i can understand it all so far even though it's slow going.
last night andy and i got so stoned we just giggled for about four hours. we were playing a game he saw somewhere in which you name a book then have to overlap the end of it into a band - 'return of the kings of leon' for example. by the time we'd been through 'draculaha' and 'journey to the centre of the earth wind and fire' i was laughing so hard i was crying. i managed to document his efforts to remember the name of "the little black guy from the rat pack" in shaky stoned handwriting, and when i saw them again today i burst out laughing all over again. it was the nicest night i've had in ages.
tonight will be watching 'extras' with suzanne and lawrence, so that'll be fun. i would be looking forward to monday except now i think i'll have to go see a recruitment agency at ten in the morning which will rather mar my chances for a lie-in, but oh well - if i find another job i'll hopefully get some weekends back and ami won't have to leave here.
my head is actually ready to burst with ideas i don't have time to do. i need to write 'em all down and think how they can happen sometime soon. life really doesn't feel as boring as this entry makes it sound.
