spinks> I'm pretty sure dad is reconsidering sending me to drama classes
maguiness> ?
maguiness> explain
spinks> well tonight i was home alone for most of the night. Mum was with my little brothers in singleton, out to dinner for my uncle's birthday
spinks> my older brother is in gloucester for the next few days
spinks> and dad was at karate till about 8 and thus i had to cook tea
spinks> of course i get a brilliant theatrical idea in my head just to make things a little awkward when dad comes home
spinks> i cook some pretty basic fuckign stuff, 2 pies and some 2 minute noodles
spinks> but i garnish the fuck out of them with salads and shit, and put them on the good china, got the good cutlery out, wine glasses filled with red wine, the dinenr candles, the nice place mats, all of it
spinks> a nice romantic dinner
spinks> dad got home and i lit the candles, got dressed in my suit and tie, nice saphire-blue micro-fibre shirt, placed the plates opposite one another and turned all the lights off
spinks> I sat there waiting, folded my hands nicely and dad walked through the door, blinked coz of the low light and just stared at me
spinks> then he just slowly walked to his room, where i'd laid a trail of fake rose petals down the hallway to his room
spinks> GOD i will never forget the look on his face

<+HoCkster> I got an official warning from my bank
<+HoCkster> I usually pay my rent as "Columbian Drug Money", they never objected
<+HoCkster> but then I forgot my mates cell phone number,
<+HoCkster> we were both doing internet banking at the same time right
<@Lilzvixen> welcome to my room
<+HoCkster> so I give him a 1 cent payment going "What's your number"
<+HoCkster> and we start having this whole conversation
<+HoCkster> it was like webchat
<+HoCkster> so like 87 payments later, the bank rings me up and were like
<+HoCkster> "have you thought of getting MSN?"
