"Why Didn't You Tell Me It Was Quarter Past 11, Knob!?"

Last night was brilliant. I tried to duplicate the hair from Flock of Seagulls, but my hair is too long and the sides kept flopping over. In the end I gave up, rinsed the copious amount of product out of it and blow-dried it, leaving it natural. Laura, Lotty, Elana & Kayleigh- that is the ONLY time you're going to see my hair like that, so I hoped you enjoyed it. I was then waiting for Kayleigh to come and dump her stuff. That was over with very quickly, and so we were whisked off to Lotty's. The door opened, reavling a gothic Laura and a Gene Simmons-esque Hope, complete with blonde mullet. We were officially in the 80's. We migrated into the lounge for a bit of socialising and communal bobbing to some 80s tunes. Lotty disappeared for a bit and came back, announcing that "For once, Mum has told me to turn the music UP!" Classic 80s tunes blared through the night, which had some interesting moments, to say the least. The first was Lotty, Hope and another girl whose name I can't remember (I think it was Alice?) acting along to Don't You Want Me. Needless to say I took videos:


Next was Kayleigh having an epic guitar solo in The Final Countdown, stealing many moves from famous guitarists. Which reminds me, Lotty: NEXT TIME YOU HAVE AN 80S PARTY, HAVE GUITAR HERO ROCKS THE 80S. Then, during Ever Fallen In Love, Kayleigh spent her time trying to get Hope back. Thoroughly good acting on both parts, it must be said. I was thrilled to see that Lotty's cake was a Rubiks Cube. Rubiks Cubes are the best!When it came to the lighting of the sole candle Lotty had plunged into the Cube, we all sang the compulsory 'Happy Birthday' and then Kayleigh demanded a speech. Hope gave a story of how she'd know Lotty her whole life and that she was one of the best people she'd ever known. Kayleigh then gave largely the same speech in two sentences- "This is Lotty. She is a Legend." Even Emma the dog had to agree. Soon, it was time to leave. Kayleigh and I started walking back to mine and we got about a fifth of the way there whenI suddenly realised- "Shit, I've left my camera behind!" So we headed back to Lotty's to pick up the accused camera, all the while Kayleigh dodging snails. I made the mistake of saying "I wonder what life you be like for something that small..." Cue Kayleigh's line of "I dunno, you tell me." ¬_¬ Thanks Kay.

After the walk home, we just sat in my room for a while, talking about random crap. Then Adolf declared that "It's one in the morning, so how about lights out in 10-15 minutes." Whatever, anything to keep him sweet. Then Kayleigh adjourned to the living room, where I joined her. We spent half the night drifting in and out of sleep on the rug (Kayleigh also kangaroo-kicked my knee) and then we finally crawled back into my room.
Next thing I know, Kayleigh trows my lucious Dream Touch cushion in my face, exclaiming "Why Didn't You Tell Me It Was Quarter Past 11, Knob!?" I didn't even know it was that late. We then just sat around talking until about noon, when I decided to try and sort my MSN out. The bastard still won't work ¬_¬. Meanwhile, I ripped Blaqk Audio to my computer, and now it's on my mp3 player, ready for the bus journey tomorrow morn.
We then browsed YouTube for videos of Smith Puget and a drunken Synyster Gates. And the Rev chasing a duck. I then decided that I wanted a drink, so went down to get one and I came back up to find a fully dressed Kayleigh (by this time it was something like twenty past 2). We then spent the rest of the afternoon watching The Young Ones, which was brilliant.
Upon finishing the first series of The Young Ones, Kayleigh called her folks to pick her up. She said they'd be here at quarter past 6, which gave us a fair bit of time to kill. We must've spent 20 minutes wrestling over the DT cushion. What a great way to waste time.

And now, I'm supposed to be doing some homework but I really can't be arsed. Instead, I'm plotting.

Your friendly neighbourhood Mo.
