Visiting friend was fine, atmosphere (and smell) in the mental "health" unit was odd but there were lots of us there so the party atmosphere was good. Great to meet other mates of hers too (some I had met out clubbing before).

eerrrhhhmm apart from that, I'm bored...you see I've spent the last month thinking "I'm sooo busy, please I just want to do nothing...etc". Now that I have "nothing" to do (in the loosest terms, I do actually have a lot to do but it's either not too pressing or I have to wait for other people to get back to me before I can get on with things), I'm bored...and the thing is, I have no money so I can't just go out and do things (or eat...nevermind) And I have major clubbing withdrawal vibes going on, managed to get drunk on 1/2 a bottle of wine last night - what's all that about? Plus, we can't go out until next weekend (due to lack of funds and the fact that Lornie is away in Reading this weekend).

I need a hefty dose of cheap vodka, shite indie music (scrap that, I wanna go somewhere new - Stay Beautiful has reopened, I used to love it there...can't go to Slimelight due to ex-boyf - not that it would be a problem just awkward...maybe we could try something in Camden???) and dressing up (I've bought a few ebay treats that I'd like to wear outside the house).

Oh, I could also do with some sleep - I only got 3 hrs last night therefore feeling pretty shitty - just in time for my "date" tonight. Who, by the way, is coming around and cooking me dinner...(that man knows the way to my heart!)

Who says that politicians don't have a sense of humour - read this!

Bosses both away for one day (not even one day...) and I'm bored, bored I tell you! There are things that I could be getting on with but who at this time of the working week wants a phone call from me asking for data, money, photos etc from them (what a wonderful insight to my working life).

Stayed in last night with Richie - drinking wine, eating crisps for dinner and watching Chicago from the local video store. Jess came home and we drank fizzy wine (a classier version of what me and my clubbing mates used to call 'Bingo Pop', as Emma got it from her Nana, who won it from the local bingo in Heaton in Newcastle!!!). We all rang Lornie as she has gone to V2003 to work on the old vodka jelly bar...we're all missing her loads already.

Booked tickets for Three Sisters at the National for next week (yay, Jan-Jan (mummy) is up for a meeting so we're going out and having fun - well if you can call Chekhov fun!). I also have a "date" pencilled in for Tuesday which I'm dreading already - good god, my stomach turned just thinking about it!

Monday will be the worst though - going to visit a friend that is being held in a mental ward. She's been sectioned for 6 mths. Now, I've always know that she has problems in that area but this will be the first time that I'll be visiting her when she's "off on one" - not the first time that I have been to a place like that but I remember very clearly not liking it the first time (just left home at 16, living in squat like circumstances, taking too many drugs, drinking too much, one housemate literally stabbed her boyfriend in the back...not a nice way to be woken up one morning I tell you! Anyway we visited that flatmate - hospitals are horrible, mental wards are worse).

Fuck it, it's her birthday on Monday, I am her mate - I'd want people to visit me if I was there...I'm going with another friend, so it's not like I'll be on my own in that place...we'll take her some cool pressies and see how she's doing...

Things Boudicca has done over the last couple of weeks:

1) Not slept well at all - none ofthis helps!
2) Worked in a dirty warehouse and got covered in muck, dirt, sweat etc - (YAY, Pericles is over!!!)
3) Worked until 11pm each bloody night...
4) Had a lovely BBQ with lovely maties (and I got quite drunk indeed)
5) Hardly been clubbing at all (but when we have somehow we've been very naughty!)
6) Been to see Brokenville by Philip Ridley at the Riverside - which was wonderful..I worked on a version of this play just before I started uni on behalf of Kosova Aid. It was an amazing time, working with refugees some of whom, months before had hardly been able to talk a work of English. But they got up on stage and made people weep each night with this amazing piece of work. I have really happy memories of this time...
7) Had a picnic with work mates post a long meeting - on a lovely sunny day!
8) Went to see On Your Toes at the RFH. Adam Cooper was wonderful but the highlight for me was Irek Mukhamedov - I have never seen a more amazing dancer - literally took my breathe away...
9) Ummm, had a date (something which I have never done before...). Ummm, it also went quite well...*vomitus maximus* - I won't be able to take the piss out of Jessica and "her" Shazzer so much anymore!
10) Spent an evening with Richie last night, nice dinner and then Pirates of the Caribbean. Which wasn't actually that good - apart from the very witty (and sexy) Johnny Depp.

This weekend, I plan to be doing - in the words of Bros "nothing, nothing at all" - actually, it was "I owe you...nothing" but y'know a bit of poetic license never went amiss.

YAY! Pericles is over! Hurrah, hurrah, hurrah!!! Finally back in the world!

Extreme invisible theatre here we come - FLASH MOBBING

I like this game . Stolen from lovely Darran
Y'know what it may seem like I'm having nothing but fun but I am actually really busy and I have cut down to 20 mins max online (that is online without a work theme to it!). Am so bored, need an ebay fix!
