lupestripeLast night was surreal. Went to a BBQ at a mate's house. I've only known him for two weeks but he's a good lad. In the end it turned out just to be him, the family he's living with and a couple of their friends but it was great. It chucked it down though and there was thunder too! There's something quintessentially English about having a barbeque in a thunderstorm, along with something slightly barking (or howling, in my case). Maybe that's why I enjoyed meself.
Unfortunately the man of the house had never cooked veggie burgers before and left them on too long! They resembled drinks coasters in the end but it was all good - particularly with the gorgeous coconut milk and chili sauce my mate cooked too! Yum!
Ended up talking about war, euthanasia and abortion in the end, which was odd for a first meeting. I always feel scared of saying something inappropriate when I first meet people so I try and skirt away from those sort of issues. Still, no one was judgemental and it was a good debate in the end. And it deflected from one or two funny but possibly slightly too far comments I had made at the dinner table earlier. But I guess I'm probably too sensitive or something as everyone I meet seems to like me. Apart from those chavs last week of course. Bastards.
In other news I've been messing about with my LJ today - it's starting to look good but have a long way to go yet before I make it a proper den. I have to reapulster the sofa for one, and hang some new wallpaper in the hall but once I do that, and get the right ambient lighting (I was thinking a fire in the corner or something) then I am sure it will be a really cosy place that loads of young girls would love to visit! Young girls! Yum! Another reason for the fire!
Speaking of which, am going out with Vicky and Millsy this afternoon and can't wait! *dance*. It's gonna be a great laugh, I like them a lot and they're teaching me the tricks of stalking - which they don't know I am using on them! Mwah ha ha! Shame about the weather though but you can't have everything. A fantastic week ends in a dreary weekend. Still, I'm happy. Cinema and shopping I think this afternoon. And a make-over. For me. Which scares me a little. But at least I get pounced on so I can't complain too much. And I suppose I always have liked lip gloss, deep down like...
