Happy Birthday timeplease

[lnr]

I had a nice time at August's party last night, though there were some rather stressful moments and not everyone seemed ot be having the best of times, not least the host, which was sad. I discovered that I can't play the mandolin or the bass, and still can't play the guitar, but did briefly get something sounding like music out of Dom's sax. (fnar!). Lots of nice food and drink (oops). In fact so much lots of the latter that I really must apologise to Rachel for apparently telling her my entire life history, not sure quite how I got into that!

Hopefully will be celebrating with the karate graders this afternoon, once I hear how they've done. I might stay off the booze though.

Feel like I ought to stay off the food too after this week :-/ Nice dinner out with Mike Monday, nice dinner in on Thursday which was nearly as disastrously calorific, and then a slightly over quota dinner on Friday, but I dread to think how much I consumed yesterday, and I just don't seem to have much motivation to eat sensibly today, though I guess I'll just have to try. Oh well, even if I gain weight this week (weigh in tomorrow morning since I wasn't at home today) I'm still well down on the start of the year, and I still know I can keep going, so it's not the end of the world. It's just painfully slow going sometimes, and I just feel so *fat* sometimes.

And I wish I could make people happier. Andrew, August, Jan: they're all fed up in various ways and I can't seem to help and with Andrew at least I only seem to make things worse. I just don't know what to do.

My diet sputtered to a halt around the time we went to Keighley for a weekend. But I have to remember that at least I kicked off the Christmas/New Year binge before that happened.

I have some photos of you er, blowing the saxaphone. Will post the worksafe ones when I get home...

How on earth can they manage to be not worksafe?

Having seen them this afternoon, I know what he means. They were taken from a rather low angle! It was lovely to finally meet you, even if we didn't really get a chance to talk very much.

It's not so much the low angle as the fact that you are playing the saxophone by blowing out of your left eye socket (http://pics.livejournal.com/hairyears/pic/0003pyw0).

This is disturbing, and not at all worksafe.

The low angle is due to someone's boot being in the way of all other shots.

Watch this space (http://pics.livejournal.com/hairyears/gallery/0000ep6f), I'll get around to posting the others.

Hiss on the tape...

not least the host

I don't think I should be let out in company, really.
I think I'll lay low for a while, and see if I can readjust myself.

I'd like to apologie to anyone (everyone?) I offended last night.

I just don't know what to do.

Thanks for being a good friend.

lay low> nah, don't even think about it, you need to get used to being in company again. And you definitely need some help with all those leftovers. Besides, it *was* and it nice to see you, so ner. And you certainly didn't offend me.

You didn't manage to offend me either I'm afraid. Sorry that things are a bit stressy at the moment but I still enjoyed the party and talking to you when I had a chance.

I'm really sorry for snapping at you like that. I was drunk and twitchy and getting upset about other things and you just caught me at a bad moment. And then afterwards you were so angry I thought I'd just make things worse if I tried to say anything. :-(

And it was such a cool party until I started getting upset, & the getting-upset totally wasn't your fault, & I really wish I'd just managed to bite my tongue & not say anything because then I could have just run away and been upset somewhere else without spoiling your party.

I'm sorry. I don't know what else to say really. :-(

It's just somethin' we're gonna have to forget

Matches and kerosene.
Both edgy, no ones fault.
Don't worry about it.

He had a party last night? I'd've gone if only I'd known.

[lnr]

You mean he didn't say? Gosh, I was sure he must have mentioned it at least once.

Missed you. Andrew and I had to have a chat about all of your ex-boyfriends without you this morning. It just wasn't the same.

Glinys "came out" as a furry, and has decided to change the spelling of her name. She will be wearing a chipmunk costume to the next meat.

I have exactly one and a half ex-boyfriends.

The half comes from a guy who told his girlfriend that I was an ex of his, even though we hadn't actually gone out. We were both making the 'I really like you' noises, and I said 'Yeah, let's try it.' Just before that, he pulled the girlfriend (the one he's telling about me) at a party he was at, sort of by accident, so by the time I'd said 'Yeah, let's try it' he didn't really know how to explain what had gone on.

Yes, that's the sort of thing we missed. We had to make do with ourselves, though, and now [Unknown site tag] knows all about how you slept with Andrew.
