weekend of the 26th - 28th june
Lets try and cram all three days into one post. hopefully it wil be quick.
friday.
had no plans so called bec and planned to meet up with her @ martin place to go to the last of the so called night markets in china town. i reckon theyll be back. I rock up to martin street bar in my cool as folkie jacket, which is light brown. And i get there on a friday night after work and im surrounded by suits. I seem to have a dislike for suits as i was bagging them out the whole time. This considering i will probably become one one day and bec and her friends seemed to fit in quite nicely.
For some reason i was in such a smart ass mood i must have annoyed bec immensly who had had a few drinks by then. She was there with a friend of heres called josh and all of his mates. I thought this is cool and a nice opportunity to meet new ppl which i love doing most of the time. Then all of a sudden the group left for home! Home. Incase you missed it the first time. I just get there and they leave. Ok well who is left then. Me and to my right bec and next to her is josh, her friend who shes out with and hmmmm, well thats it. then i realised.
i was on a date. not even my date, but a date with bec and josh. Not a real date but one nonetheless. The thing was that bec didn't know she was on a date either. He was 19 and she was 22. This may not seem like much but bec has matured alot since the rocket and blue wig wearing crazy 18 year old i first met. She mad become more lady like and established. Troubled as we all are but independant and confident.
This 19 year old boy to me seemed very much clueless as to the world. He lived at home and dreamed of buying a v6 commodore, or some similar model. I think he couldn't distinguish the relationship that existed between me and bec and thought that realstionship as a threat. For the whole night i felt in a constant battle for affection. Fighting a 19 year old boy in minisculer social and strategic games about winning position and praise for my ex girlfriend. I foud the whole thing quite funny. A few times he clearly made moves on bec in front of me implying in small unconscious animalistic ways that this one was his.
maybe an older boy would reaslise battles where there is need of fighting. Maybe i see stupidity that exists in him that did or still does exist inside me. I shut myself fromt the world. After having a few too many cokes and waters (no drinking remember)i decided that the city was too much for me and i relly just wanted to get the hell out of the and have a little chuckle about our boy josh. He actually seemed like a genuine nice bloke but showing his years all too clearly. Good luck joshy ;D
oh yeah i also bought a sword too for 20 bucks. first one
Saturday
Sometimes you get in moods where the last thing you want to do is stay at home not matter how crap the night is and saturday was one of those days. They happen every now and then and theyre more common in winter with all weather effects minusing from the total quality value of the night. I started with simply meeting up with the boys (pat and phil and ash pats girl) for dinner down at a pub near china town. I got called and luke and pins and donna, luke flatmate were all heading to the excelsior to check out a band. So we had dinner, played some pool, ash pissed off for work and we headed to glebe to check out these bands. Because pats whipped like we all do get sometimes ;P he walked his girl to herwork near martin place and then back to glebe to drink with us. ohh nice boy you say but sucker also comes to mind.
Me and phil meanwhile caught a taxi who instead of heading straight on george and tehn turnign left decided to turn right and then right again essentially going in the wrong way. then after we stop at some lights he asks us if it was this street to turn right or then next one. We say next one and he turns down the first one anyway. What a fucking dickhead. Then we get out and we find we are still 15 minutes walk fromt he fucking pub.
I dont mind payin gfor a taxi because they provide the now essential as well as the assurance that your going to get dropped off where you need to go. This idiot drops us off at the wrong place and goes the long way. anyways moving on......
We get to the pub and the bands were ok. I actually missed most of the band we went to see because i was punting on the pokies. lost 20. damn. Then the rest were quite boring and as i wasn't drinking i got quite bored. We all headed off luke pins and donna included to the AB.
In my opinion this place for a pub was over-renovated. Everything seemed abit too nice and flashy. Fish in the fish tank. Communist russian designs onthe wall. Long curving staricase. And the patronage were a bit upper yuppish too, but thats only a minor flaw. We got there and were waiting for pool tables when they announced last drinks. They were shutting at 12. - next
Pins left and we headed to scubar. sucked. two girls and 50 guys. no thanks. - next
On to scruffy murphies. U2 cover band and other than that it sucked. I asked luke if he had ever seen ugly people @candies and hes said noe. I realised they were all here. That sounds pretty harsh but if youve ever seen scruffy murphies then you'll realise its fair. They were a few raritites just to dispel complete generalisation but its true.- next
luke and donna left after sharinga kebab and got a little disgruntled at the city because luke sees it every day. fair enough. so they went and me pat and phil walked to tailor square. We went to some kebalas or somethign bar just up from courthouse. Before getting there we were witness to a gang of 15 guys chase three guy sbolting for dear life down oxford street. Who knows what that was about but they better have been good at running. it was nice inside with a good crown. very uppish yuppie while most people seemd to be from a ball of formal in suits and girls in full dresses. It was cold so it must have been important. Met up with brenton and all the band boys. Theyre cool and mad to hang out with. trash themselves everytime. awesome. sucked i wasn't drinking.
Then headed to the cross to go to dragon flies but the band boys were too casual so we headed to empire down the other side of the cross. I remember going here with stony a few years ago and it is just as dodgy as even. Lots of people there evenat 4am but they all looked so trashed. I was feeling sick as by now after so many coke and waters. and it was cold. we slowly and by slowly i mean around 1m a minute. it took over and hour and a to get to martinplace. We had to go pick up ash to either continue drinking (yeah right) or go home and crash. Pat was fighting with her the whole time constantly calling at every phone booth. Then we get there and she says she'll come out and ends up making us wait till around 5:40am. fuck this we said and went home. I crashed at brentons and they sorted everything out by the time i woke up. i suppose couples are meant to do that.
Sunday
Everyones hung over, even me, from the coke and water and from staying out in the cold till 5/6 am. So we all head to the roxbury to get breakfast, counter meal chicken schnitzel. coke for me and beer for the boys. Luckily we find upstairs and apool table which has 25 free games on it. score. so we play pool all day. then i head home and get much needed rest.
see wasnt that long.
hah!

to think that that wasnt a long enough fing post i forgot some things.
i worked sat from 2am - 7pm working on pirates and spent the whole time cutting up sound files.
had dinner with luke on sunday night and went and saw xmen. We got there a bit late for the movie and at6:40 10 minutes late the guy assured us the movie hadn't started yet and that we had plenty of time. We got inthe cinema and the fucker had started already. we started watching and thought we didn't miss much but could never really figure what the fuck was going on. So 45 minutes later when the credits came up on screen i though what the hell was going on. What a shit movie, it only went for 45 minutes.
The i started thinking hang on a minute. it couldn't have only gone for an hour. While we were leaving i checked the ticket against the cinema room. Ticket said "2" cinema said "1".
*oops*
well it was funny and me and luke felt a little embarressed while askin the chik if we can sit in and watch it again. she said it was fine as long as we dont take anyones seat. people get touchy with this allocated seat crap.
so we sat in the middle of the best row and screwed up all teh seating allotments and watched while these people argued over someone sitting in their seat. i just dont get it. theres a whole cinema full of empty seats that they could just have easily moved to. seats that are no different to those that were occupied. Oh well.
think thats all. something about chocolate milk and picnics.
