Huh, turns out I was assaulted last night. Strange how these thngs happen.
Was woken up at about 5 in the morning by the gates clanging. Was two of Joes old friends. They said they were calling for him. When I launched into my angry tirade about being woken at an ungodly hour one of the little twats threw a punch. Well. We can’t have that. I think I came out on top…
Anyway, wasn’t gonna make a big deal out of it, but Joe has just discovered that his and Sams bike have gone missing. When I saw the two of them cycling away I didn’t recognize the bikes, but it turns out I caught them in the act of lifting the burden of bike ownership from several people in the area - including us. No wonder they were so aggressive.
My face is a bit swollen, but hey ho.
QOTD: “You’re never too rich to enjoy a free Turkey-dog.”
Cattle herding is my new no. 1 hangover cure.
Was the work xmas party last night followed by the Watsons houseparty. Yay for ridiculous excess and woo for eastenders style bitching!
Went riding with claire today. Bobby is really shaping up. On our return the cows had somehow managed to (all of them) get from the correct field to the incorrect field. This annoyed me greatly and to be rectified with much running around and (what I believe to be called) hollering.
Just done my secret santa present for work this year.
Far too much effort.
I managed to draw from the hat: Beth - who I barely know because she started after I left for uni. Didn’t know what to do for her. Joked with Kate that I’d buy her £5 pounds worth (50 @ £0.10ea) of Freddo chocolate bars. Well, y’all know me, one thing led to another and there I am buying 50 Freddos. Trouble was, it turns out they’re 15p these days and I actually spent £7.50, bah!
Anyhow, just wasted an hour of my life turning these 50 Freddos into a coil and wrapping it in my own Freddo collage riding paper.
Does look the shit though. 
Went to fanclub after work (which was awful: kids wrestling in the restaurant…) with sam and martin. Saw Kat (from uni) there too, which was odd. Twas a good night though.
Rode too many beasties this morning, won’t be able to walk tomorrow. :s
Feeling very maudlin…
Claire came round earlier for puppyage and tea. That was nice.
Went out with leicester peeps tomorrow. That was nice.
Miss brighton though, and gemmie.
Kinda wanna go play some pacman.
Was almost sick over the dentist this morning. Serious unpleasantness. The two buses there and back were rather hellish too…
Man, I’d forgotten how much I like drinking whiskey with sam.
*sigh*
Yay for mini-xmas!
Boo for waiters with attitude problems to rival those of the guests.
Been waitering at the grammar school all day (grumble grumble private education wankers grumble grumble…) and earned a pretty penny, but now have to do a normal shift at the pub. Too tired.
Still - freelancing is fun and profitable. Yay!
So tired… Puppy’s boudoir is directly beneath mine. Puppy still isn’t used to sleeping in his own bed and whines periodically through the night. Why can’t his bed be under Joe’s?
Work last night was reassuring - I’m still top of my game. Was fun, and nice to see locals again.
Oh and puppy is called Alfie.
