This is my first ever long Easter weekend off work! On my PhD I'd always end up working it, but this weekend I can just go "no. I have done my work. I will be lazing around like a lazy bastard". To celebrate, last night I went out for dinner/XFM's big night out at Brixton Academy with some guys from S1L/Gig buddies. It was a really good evening and I met some more guys from the group. It's nice because everyone seems to be a bit geeky (many of the men seem to work in IT...), so it means I should be able to fit in quite well, which is a really nice feeling :-) On the other hand it definitely seems to be more of a social thing for me and I think I'm less likely than I hoped to get dates out of it all (excepting the world-of-fuck-up that was Maddy. I fear protracted fallout from that, even though she's now moving in with the guy who she probably would have met while we were dating...). The night was good - they had three bands playing - Black Kids (good stuff), One Night Only (bog-standard indie-rock) and the Futureheads who were crippled somewhat by a 30 minute show and really atrocious sound. Never mind, it was fun. I've uploaded some fuzzy camphone photos
Whose night is this again? Oh yeah...
Black Kids, being rather good.
The distinctly average One Night Only
The Futureheads. OH oh oh, OH oh oh, OH OH OH, OH OH OH, etc.
Actually I can't be too lazy today. I've got to go out and get Easter eggs for the family as I will be seeing my parents and siblings and their partners on Sunday. Also I've got to get my favourite blue jacket cleaned. There was some beer-throwing going on last night and I caught a lot of it. Grrr. And I'd better go to the gym too, seeing as I haven't been all week (just exhaustion from work mainly).
Much else to report? I don't think so really.Here's to the long weekend! :-D
