early/late/tired

I love blogging because a few of my favourite people in the world also blog, and one day I'm going to list my friends' blogs down the side of mine. It's great because I have running conversations with various people on their blogs and also on their friends' blogs. And I love seeing the different things people write about. Some are very serious, some are political, some are very silly (you know hwo you are. Yes, all of you). I keep in touch with friends from uni and also see what Matt's been up to. Here it is, 4.30am, I've just got in, and I check blogs to see if anyone's written anything new. Partly, I suspect, because Matt's on nights so it's an empty house... Partly just because I love my friends...

No, I haven't been drinking...

I've been out to a comedy night, Mark Steel talking about Che Guevera. Both funny and educational. I was plesaed to find out that all my friends were annoyed by the woman in front of me, who was laughing very obviously and loudly at things that weren't that funny, to impress the guy sitting next to her. It was an event organised by the Socialist Workers Party, in support of their paper, which gave the event an odd feel.

Then I volunteered at Nexus, which is a night cafe serving coffee and ordering taxis -s omewhere safe, warm and pleasant to get a taxi and/or a hot drink. It was very quiet and very dull for a couple of hours, then completely manic, and the coffee machine temporarily broke, there was confusion over taxis, and too many customers too fast. And then they all went away again, we washed up and shut up shop and all went home. It's fun, though tiring. I'm glad I wasn't in charge - it's nice to have someone else to ask questions...

Good night
