Wow.

I forgot how much fun I could have going out to the same old club and seeing the same old folk.

Whoo... Glasgow city fireworks tonight!

I'm like a little kid when it comes to bangy, flashy things.

The display (and funfair, but no bonfire, grrr) is on Glasgow Green, and the best part is that I have friends with a balcony overlooking it. Much more fun to sip a cold one on the balcony and watch than to face the drunken fuckwits on the Green...

It's Sunday. A 14-foot-tall skeleton in a wedding dress just sashayed past my window to the sound of a samba rhythm.

That'd be Glasgow's attempt at a day of the dead festival, then.

Oooo-kaaay.

I'm not here often enough at the moment.

I've quickly grown to love the redesign though. Once I learned where everything lives now (my whole problem with it in the first instance was that it wasn't intuitive enough. Sections of the screen no longer clearly enough defined, and so on... blah).

I am in the middle of a heroic weekend of drunken and debauched...

Scared a whole lot of people last night. Well, not 'scared' so much as 'freaked out'.

It was the 21st birthday of one of my closest friends. All bets for the planned night out were off, mostly for reasons of him wanting to take on the mighty stack of birthday-present-alcohol he had received in one mammoth drinking binge. Thus myself, he, his girl and my...

Whee... I'm away to see Rancid, then down to Derby tomorrow for Lightyear and on to Nottingham for Hanoi Rocks... Holiday time, yay!

If anyone's attending the Lightyear farewell show, or the Rock City all-nighter... do be sure to say hi. The pirate will buy you a drink.

Contrary to popular belief, I am not an alcoholic.

That is all.

It's lunchtime and still my hangover knows no bounds.

Repeat after me: "It is not a good idea to buy three shots for yourself every time you go to the bar to buy a round, to drink whilst you wait for the barman to pour everybody's pints".

Bleh

I hate being ill.

Half of Glasgow has the flu, and I'm stuck in the middle of a really, really busy week at work with it.

In other news, my old buddies Lightyear are splitting up. Their last Scottish gig was Monday, and I got dragged into singing for the encore. Apparently I wasn't as bad as all that, which surprises me, given how...

My head hurts.

Hangovers didn't used to hurt when I was younger. I drank for my country and I went to work in the morning. It was easy.

Now I suffer for my art.

*ouch*

A weekend of geekery awaits me, and I plan to thoroughly enjoy it. New TV arrived during the week (having spent months without one), so suddenly my DVD and videogame...
