you can’t catch me, I’m the Gingerbread man

9 December 2007


Just an ickle, quick post. The xmas party was grand; a few people may be regretting actions but I don’t really know them so who cares ;). Traffic was a bitch, so instead of taxi-ing I just walked, it was half an hour in fairly windy weather, so the hair might have complained, but honestly, it was a work do, so who cares.

We have just under an hour of free drinks before the dinner, so I got my usual vodka and diet coke, only to realise that those weren’t pub measures. More like doubles, if not triples, so the three I had before dinner made me quite chatty. And the best thing about the food was the bread. So I you can guess how much I actually ate. More drinking, then pubbing, we were going to go to Copper’s, but I got fed up having the “are we going yet” discussion at least three times. And so when a few others decided to head for home I figured I’d walk with them.

Only to discover I’d lost my watch. So I wandered back into the pub for a few minutes, but to be honest I wasn’t that bothered, and then walked off home on my lonesome.

And bed. Lovely lovely bed. Only to get up far too early the next morning and go to work. Was v v tired. But luckily no hangover. Yay for vodka.

So a good night was had by all. Recovery this weekend.

    i love it how nice the bed feels when one is really tired or cold… it almost makes it worth it to get that tired!

    Oh, that's alright then. Cos the more you do it, the less likely you are to get attacked/raped/pissed on. That's statistics for ya.
