Right, wow, so quite a lot of random crap has gone on since the last one of these...mostly just completely useless things but I feel like talking about it so wa-hey!
- Had a pretty chilled week workwise after the craziness of handing in essays on time! So that was good, and it meant that I could absolutely kill myself at the gym without having to rush home to do tonnes of work...yeah, that's been awesome, but I have a feeling it's going to be short-lived before they start piling on the work again so better enjoy it while it lasts.
- Spent an entire night cleaning up Rob's puke (not the one I live with - my housemate Jade's boyfriend) after the idiot went and did a centurion (a shot a minute for 100 minutes) with red wine. We had to go drag him off the street where he'd collapsed and bring him back to our house where he bawled his eyes out for a while before falling asleep, waking up 20 mins later and throwing up all over her bed. Jade's not too good with puke so I came along to the rescue and was sat in the bathroom with him for most of the night trying to get him sorted, which was fine I suppose except for the part where he stopped breathing coz he'd had an asthma attack while passed out...yes...that just scared the crap out of me to the point where all I could do was laugh hysterically at the potentially dead body on my bathroom floor. It all worked out in the end, he woke me up the next morning to apologise profusely and he totally loves me now - except I've somehow managed to aquire the nickname "Mummy Manal" after that night. Oh lord.
- Hmm...update on my love life (or lack thereof)? Went on a date with my friend Stuart to the cinema, then the pub, then back to mine where we hung out till 4:30AM talking which was waaay cool...but we're definately just friends coz I can't see him as anything more and that's groovy! I need to start going on dates with more of my boy mates, it gives us a chance to spend quality time together...and they're gentlemen so they pay for everything! :D Yeah, I'm spoilt.
- In other news, me and my friend Alex met these two guys at the pub accross the road - Paul and Ian. They're brothers. Alex and Ian sort of hooked up and went on a couple of dates and that was great...but he doesn't live here. Paul on the other hand is a chef at the pub and is slightly obsessed with me despite my telling him I didn't want a relationship. Probably shouldn't have kissed him. Oops.
- Rob's (now that IS the one I live with) brother Tom came down for a visit this weekend. He's been down before and we got on pretty well...but er, this time we got on VERY well. I'd decided I should start drinking again last night so a bottle of wine and a couple of cocktails later, the two of us were getting very chummy. But it was fantastic coz it wasn't in this mushy coupley way, we were just rugby tackling eachother and beating eachother up (although several people on the way home did stop to ask if I was alright because I had this guy jumping at me every 5 seconds *cough*), it was basically what I'm like with all the guys in my house. Trouble started when everyone else went to bed and it was just me and Tom watching TV, I was wrapped up in a blanket freezing my ass off when he stole the blanket of me and refused to give it back and then went all "Well, if you come sit with me we can share it"...eep. He's so lovely, we get on so well and everything is just fun and not serious and just plain yay. We ended up falling asleep on top of eachother on the sofa at around half 5 in the morning. GAH! He's my housemate's older brother! And he doesn't even live here! This is lame on so many levels!
Yeah, I need a shower, and lunch, and then I'm going to trek into town to help Jen buy some boots. The fun never ends. x
