vyvyanxSo, it was L's birthday meal last night. Turned up at Efes, where the others were already sitting down and very drunk. G's housemate M was particularly smashed and amusing. He asked me how much I earned, and ignored everyone else saying how tactless this kind of question was :-) Very nice food; wine expensive, though, and of course I had to pay G's share too (came to L51 in the end :-( ). Got lift back to house with one of L's friends, then drank more and smoked M's dope in the living room. G invited 2 camgoths round: GB and GC. L didn't seem very impressed with them, and said so to his other friends in French, which fortunately neither GB nor GC could understand. Talked a lot to GC about music and language and stuff; he's a nice guy. Alcohol and hash do exacerbate my tendency to paranoia though, unfortunately: I became convinced that GB disliked me, that L disliked me, and also got upset with G for saying some random little thing.
G was kind of fucked as well, though - the neighbour came round and banged really aggressively on the front door to get M to turn his music off, and carried on banging like he wanted to break the door down for a long time even after M turned it off. G got freaked and dialled 999. About 20 mins later a couple of police turned up, and we told them rather sheepishly that everything was ok now. Then G and I went upstairs and had a drunken and emotional conversation, after which G virtually passed out on the bed, and so the night ended!
This morning (or rather, early afternoon) everyone seemed pretty hung over, but no one seemed pissed off about anything, fortunately, and L seemed to have enjoyed his celebration. G got up very late, and spent ages downloading mods for Max Payne and playing them. There's an Easter egg in the game, whereby you can get the rats in the train station to fight with other with miniature Desert Eagles! - it's hilarious, especially the slow-mo rat death scenes :-) Eventually, G got dressed and we walked to the station, where we chatted for a bit over a pint in the station bar, until G had to catch his train to Welwyn Garden City to meet his parents. Well, moment of truth for his housing situation, I guess. He'll be back tomorrow evening, hopefully, after the SF society games evening in my room. Am missing him already :-)
Went to Sainsbury's to get oyster mushrooms, asparagus and noodles, for stir-fry (also used lots of cloud-ear black dried Chinese mushrooms - yum). Made dinner, ate it while listening to rather soppy play on radio 4. Will probably go to bed shortly, maybe read Ring (though I'm very tired and might just go to sleep).
It's just as well no one ever reads this diary, it's very boring :-)
