Spring blooms,the birds sing and I finally get some work:)

Good afternoon,party people,
I hope everyone is doing well.I'm deeply sorry for missing your birthday bash,kev.I just didn't have the funds to make it.I hope it was spectacular though.
So I finally found someone willing to hire me.Woohoo!!!Its only part time barwork.Yes,even with all my shaking someone hired me to pull pints.Its going alright.I start a second job tomorrow.As a kitchen assistant.Yep,they expect me to cook.This should be interesting.The good news is that combined I should be getting between 30 and 40 hours a week.Thank god.
So what else?We went down to Manchester for the day on Saturday.Dang!That city loves to shop!It was frickin chaos.Beautiful city though.It has a good vibe and some nice record stores.Went to this shop called Afflecks place thats 5 or 6 floors of second hand and vintage clothing and weird stuff.Indie designer clothes and stuff.Very cool.Saw this wicked corderoy dj record bag.Then had to convince myself it was a waste of money since my record player is in Canada and oh yeah...I'm not a dj.It was sweet though.They also had one made out of old star wars sheets.I know what your thinking...how cool is this guy?I know,i know.
I worked my first hectic shift at the Vickerstown Institute(the pub I'm working at) Saturday night.A do for 120 people.They were all such nice people.Nice enough to wait at the bar for every last penny of change.Not one single s.o.b tipped.Lovely.
Sunday was what the english call Super Sunday.It was a long weekend,Monday was a stat holiday.So on sunday everyone in the country went out to the pub and got pissed.Myself included.Well,we went to a great barbeque first.Then about 5pm we hit the pub.I hit the stella,or as they call it here,the wifebeater.Classy name.Its 5% and thats strong here apparently.Then I started dancing and never stopped til we hit the chinese take away for a curry and chips.Thing is I don't think anyone else was dancing.Just me.And I was getting down.All the way down to chinatown.At least I seemed to amuse everyone else.And the strangers I danced with were kind enough to laugh instead of punch me in the head.Good times.
Well,my times running out here.So I'll talk to you soon:)

Song of the week: Lets build a home:from the white stripes destyjl album.Go home put it on turn it up and try not to dance.I dare you.
