bad luck, you are a terrible laughing god~ rip royal city


saturday afternoon - well practically evening and i am at work.
my laptop is infected with a virus because
someone didn't follow some good advice and run zone alarm.
well, i did eventually download it, but not until after many hours of
online exposure.
i am a sacrificial lamb.

so anyhoo, here i sit.
i just ate a taco del mar monstrosity.
it was very good and i deserved it.
i've nearly walked my non-existent arse off today.

went out last night.
it went from great, to good to shitty -
as things tend to.

had a gay old time having drinks
with the ladies.
much cackling ensued.

then we went to a relaxed party.
it was fun, but i was lured away by the
promise of nightlife and afterparty hijinks.
i was told straight up that i need to go where there are single men.
apparently i come off as quite hard up nowadays. nice.
i couldn't be bothered to argue and besides,
i secretly intended to join them for a drink and then bugger off.
i wanted to make it home in time for conan.
i'm the best.

well, we tried to go to this pub i quite like called the cambie.
now i tried to go 2 weeks ago and was turned away for not having i.d.
if i were younger i would have been furious about being banned from a
potentially good time.
as it was, i was extraordinarily annoyed by the lump-headed bouncer's physique(all 5"6 of him)
and the fact that i had to blow another $10 in cab fare.
but i digress, and tiresomely too. apologies.

so, last night we arrived and there was a queue outside the door.
i was tired. my feet hurt. my 4 margarita headstart was fast
boiling away to a headache.
but i was in determined company.
we marched blocks and blocks to another crappy bar.
i blew $7 on a warm heineken. we sat for 15 minutes.
the others decided to go to an afterparty at some warehouse.
i called a cab and made it home in time to catch the last
half hour of conan.

well, i suppose the evening ended somewhat pleasantly.
but i confess watching latenight television alone
can be a bit dull and lonely.
but much preferable to the company of drunks.

and then there was saturday
snl tonight.
im a real wild child.
