Your godchild already has taste, clearly. I approve of this description.
Other rant:
I went to get some money on Thursday. I knew I had two big parties Thursday night and Friday night, so I withdrew some extra. I ended up going to take out some more money on Friday due to slight overspending on Thursday. Than on Saturday I had to go withdraw some money *again* due to similar problems. Gah! Every time I go out, I think I'll be sensible again, like I used to be, and let other people buy the drinks, and every time, I end up the guy buying half the bar drinks, just because I work and most of my friends are in college/university/whatnot. It's not that I mind spending it, nor that I wasn't treated the same when I was younger, but still, grah! My budget! I can't spend €350 on two nights! Add to that the fact that I got home on Saturday morning and had a champagne coupon (that's €48 right there) left over, and I just plain feel silly.
Additional rant (not *really* manbawwing but a friendly warning to those who've long since had enough of my eternal drama, just skip it :-P): me and my ex are, once again, getting along slightly better. Nothing sexual (thank god that seems over, we seem to have finally passed that), but just being able to be somewhat casual some of the time as friends. Not quite normal as with other people, but we're getting there. That I have a high disposable income and she...ehh, doesn't, and that I have a car, a shower at my place, and food all over the place, while she has none of those, probably helps quite a bit in her getting along with me - I'm a sucker still, and I know it, but, oh well. Peace and quiet and all that.
However; after Thursday night she ended up spending the night at my place (I have two beds. I told you, nothing has happened for a long while now :humph: ). Anyway, first off, she didn't just fall asleep, she fell into a semi-coma, of the "I have to check her heartbeat and breath regularly and might have to call an ambulance" sort. As in, I could open her eyes and she didn't respond at all; both her eyes were turned all the way up and away into the far corners? Healthy stuff. only reason I didn't call an ambulance, really, was that I knew she couldn't afford it (which is a a hard thing to do in Belgium, honestly...I think they come out to €50 or so).
Now, that's....somewhat her problem. Though it does make me wonder about what exactly happens when she goes home with someone else as a one night stand. Seriously, I'm a decent guy, but I know some of those she's gone with since hold to quite a bit looser morals than I do. Just worries me, damnit.
Secondly, and, horribly enough something that annoyed me more than the previous because, well, by now though I do still worry I sort of say she's just heading for her demise and who am I to stop her, she was still at my place Friday afternoon when I had to leave to that second party. She came there as well, but since I went to dinner beforehand, I had to leave some 4 hours earlier. She stayed behind to shower and shave and whatever, and promised to give me back my keys when she got there...which she promptly forgot at her place. Which forced me to stay 'till the end, and go home with her. Again, nothing happened, neither of us was in the very least interested, and I was there for the full 2 minutes or so, but it was annoying as FUCK. One of the few occasions where I actually get to meet new and relatively interesting people, and I was locked in having to go home with her from the first minute. Honestly, I'm not much of a flirt and all that, nothing's likely to happen anyway, but it *really* felt bad being forced this way to do nothing. She's the bloody [censored because I'm too nice] amongst the two of us. Blergh.
Third minor rant: it's typical for me that I come upon a group of 3 interesting, intelligent young ladies, strike up a conversation (that, somehow, magically, succeeds), and start an in-depth conversation sort of driving the other two away with what turns out to be the only one with a boyfriend of the three. Gblagh! Not like anything'd have come from it or anything, as I was neither terribly interested nor am I that smooth, but still, typical. This, of course, adds to the frustration of the former, by the way.
*grumbl*
Oh, and I have to be at work in 4 and a half hours. I'm an idiot for coming here now, after having been off line ofr four days. :aaahhh:
