You know when you've had the shittest day ever, and you get in the house at the end of it thinking, 'Well it's got to get better from now on!' and that's when the straw that broke the camel's back happens..

I was wheeling back home in the rain and the cold thinking 'Shall I get a take away?' No I thought, better be a good boy, money's crap at the moment and all.. better be responsible. So I put a pizza in the oven. I'm really, really looking forward to it as well.. so much better than a take away. I open the oven. The fire alarm goes off. It startles the crap out of me. I drop the pizza, face down, on the floor!

So guess who's getting a take away tonight? I might get some beers too. Anyone want one?

    What are you having? Pizza again? Chinese? Indian?

    I'll have a beer while I'm waiting for the food to come. You're ordering, right?

    No doubt. Make no mistake.

    I'm going to have chinese because I just have to cross the road for it and they take cards, which is rare in these parts.... 'no, just cash! only cash!' :D

    hmm. I don't really drink beer but I could take a glass of water? :o


    ooh, this reminds me - I did remember to bring something to eat to work. :D woo!! now if only I'd have time to eat it, I'm starving.


    PS: sorry to hear you've had a shite day. *hugs*

    I'll take tofu garlic with spicy sauce and steamed rice.

    what type of beer do you have??

    :D

    hey while we are eating, do you mind if I watch a PJ dvd and just chillax on the floor by your feets?? ;) um, figuratively of course.

    btw- that camel is a dirty bastard and i totally hate when his fucking back breaks because it's like such a douche thing for that goddam camel to do! so I say maybe we should stop asking the buggery ass to carry straw :D

    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    Only figuratively? They need to make a 'gravely disappointed' smiley.

    I haven't got the beer yet; will make a seperate trip for it.

  • I must be a bitch because I giggled when you said you dropped the pizza upside down on the floor.

    At least you've got Chinese now though! :)
  • It did make me laugh a little :p Sorry :o

    Hope your day gets better and enjoy the take away and beer :D:D
  • If straw could break a camels back more people would be riding around on straw.

    I think straw has been over rated somehow.

    Was straw in the past that much stronger?

    all things I will lose sleep over unless I get drunk soon...
