Reminiscing and Problems

Today has been a good day. After getting in last night at about half 1, I was wide awake at 6.30am for some reason I cannot fathom, and after seeing the inevitable cancellation of my planned events for the day, I created a Plan B and went out to lunch and then to the cinema with CC. My first ever 3D film none the less!

Yep, I was expecting a cancellation, which duly arrived at about 11am, so I quickly made a backup plan and was on the road to Luton, (a.k.a Hell), at around 12.30. I got lost on the new roads, but found my way to Dunstable and kicked off the afternoon in great fashion, with a thought-provoking talk with CC about, things.

It's interesting the last 2 days socialising with people who are a fair bit older than me. Cool Will, 27, and CC, 29 are both going through a fair few problems at the moment and although Will told me everything in his heart because the drink told him to, CC's situation is one that he trusts me with, where I can trust him with any of my problems. Maybe 1 of 3 people I can truly talk to, is Chris. Will's situation, although bad, are more in quantity, but CC's problem is one very, very big one. I had a good night with Will last night, as you may have been able to tell, and had a good afternoon with CC, capped off by some good news for him!

We decided to go out for lunch, in St.Albans for some reason, and walked around trying to find a suitable place. St. Albans is a very posh place, almost like a mini Cambridge and all the places were either expensive cafes or expensive Restaurants. We tried some seafood bar first, but it was "full" apparently. Come to think of it, maybe there were invisible people sitting at those empty tables? So we moved on and eventually found a cosy little place called 'The Snug', which sold a vast array of food and a frankly strange selection of drinks. Chris ordered a Hot Chocolate with some sort of alcohol at the bottom, which tasted strange and when he had finished that, we both ordered a Knob and Coke.

I'm not joking. Knob Creek and Coke. It's a type of whisky, but was incredibly strong. So after that, I had an orange juice and enjoyed my buffalo burger in peace! Posh!

After Chris had very kindly paid for most of the bill, (thank God I get paid tomorrow!), we moved on to the cinema where we saw Megamind in 3D! It was Ok, but I was starting to get incredibly tired and couldn't really enjoy it as much as I felt I could. I ended up driving home at 6.20pm, nearly falling asleep on the motorway, after not a lot of sleep at all the last few days, but I am glad I have made the most of today.

Full speed ahead!
