Hey cats and kittens.
It's a grim old saturday in Dirty Dublin town, and for once I'm not spending recovering from a severly misspent night, morning and early afternoon. Finished me job at UCD this week- and a very heartwarming send off it was too. I got absurdly pissed absurdly quick, but aside from walking face-on straight into a glass door in front of a crowd of smokers, I think I managed to keep my decorum. And it was heartening to see that Brian, who was 'wearing' the drink better than me, completely forgot the rules to pool.
Had a blinding paddy's, oddly enough. It was undoubtedly one to file straight under 'w' for wasted, but in a good way. I hadn't even planned on going out- but mo can be quite persuasive, when it occurs him to be so. Anyways- everyone was out, looking slick and in fine fighting fettle, and I'm very glad indeed I hauled my narrow ass off the couch after all.
Went to see 'V for Vendetta' which, while a surprisingly good adaptation of an Alan Mooore comic, was still fairly 'wack' (as I believe the youngsters are saying these days). Firstly- the story was completely different- keeping just the odd setpiece, the general aesthetic, and a few of the characters. Secondly, the script was horrible, and it seems as if someone took at the final edit with some scissors with the express intention of excising anything that could be interpreted as 'subtle'. Pretty weak. Afterwards we had another visit to Club Odessa for a nightcap- it's a cool and exclusive as ever, and again I felt way too underdressed to drink there.
Oh yeah- I tried tinkering with this blog last weak in a bid to promote it a little more online. The net result of this is that now it is listed on a website that deals exclusively in 'daily life of a boring regular joe' blogs, and low-level celeb porn. Any port in a storm, eh?
Also, theres no immediately apparant way to set up an RSS feed here without paying for the pleasure, though I have worked around this by setting up a google mail list, so if you want to have this crapola flung at your inbox as and when it's updated, let me know and I'll add you to the list.
Anyways- once again, wordcount triumphs over content- I'll sign off.
Aido "ain't nothing sweet over here" potato.
