i am so very bored, this is what happens the minute i slow down and stop doing work, reality comes in and you realise you have no social life. on the plus side, i might be able to persuade the lab kids for an outing to the local pub this thursday, seeing as its supposed to be a mini heat wave (come and see it, come and see it, mini heat wave, only here for today!) and i'm always mentally moaning to myself about how i'm missing out on nice weather by never going out. if not the lab kids, then maybe just a couple of friends. or maybe just one. its weird, i can't seem to get my friends to get on with each other. well sure, they're civil and everything, but they won't really click, so i can't really seem to invite a bunch of good friends out together.
the other plus side is i'll be going out for the first time this month (stop laughing) this friday, my friend is having her 30th birthday, and she's going to celebrate at a salsa bar in angel, islington. i still can't decide what to wear, which is strange, as i seem to have clothes coming out of over stuffed drawers in my flat. also i have almost no eye makeup to wear, i don't even have a proper eye liner, and as for eye shadow, i've only got this dodgy greeny-white shimmery stuff. so perhaps no eye stuff this time. oh, that reminds me, have to get her a pressie. and a card. hmmm.

you know when its a slow week, when i'm writing this much.

will probably go and see the second star wars installment next week, as one of the new girls in the department wants to see it, and i'm not one to turn down any nights out.
i have to say i'm not terribly eager about seeing it though, the first one was fine, but hardly awe inspiring. i ended up falling asleep, and had to watch it a second time with my little brother. i think that helped somewhat, him being there, put me in the right frame of mind - this is a kids movie. i'm not even sure if i want to watch it with him this time. well, he's 13 now, just entering teendom, i don't think he'll be that keen on going out with his big sister anymore anyway *sniff*.

i called up amy last sunday, spoke to her for the first time in about five months. well, some friendships work better on an occassional basis. and I called her because if i hadn't, i would have practically spent the entire weekend without exchanging any dialogue with another person. we ended up chatting for about an hour or so, i think it was mostly me going on about what happened with gus the technician. y'know i hate to say this, but a part of me loves the whole situation, loves the fact that i've broken yet another poor schmuck's heart. little old, sad ol' plain me. But what can i say? if i were genuinely attracted to him it would have been a different story, but the fact is i'm not.
she's said she'll come over to see me this friday, but knowing her track record, i won't hold my breath. not meaning to sound bitter. but i'd rather space these social occassions out, rather than having everything happening all at once with loads of nothing whatsoever happening in between.
