Saturday 8 August 2009

Quiet night in.

Wasn't supposed to be. I was actually kinda looking forward to going out tonight, which is unusual for me. But I've been bailed on, sort of. The girl I was supposed to go out with went to a friends house to have a couple of drinks first, and she's still there. I've been invited, but there's a reason I don't really hang out with people I went to school with so I declined. She did say she'd tell me when they head out, and that it'll be in the next hour. That was 40 minutes ago. I wouldn't mind so much if I hadn't gone to the trouble of getting ready. So I am sat here, all dressed up and no place to go. Another reason to move back to the Uk. Even with the number of friends I have there dwindling with people moving home after graduation or whatever, I'd still be able to go out on a Saturday night if I wanted to. There'd be someone to call if something like this happened. I went through my phone here to see who there was I could call, see if they were out already and I could join them. I came up with 2. Neither of whom are available.

I know I could go out and would probably meet someone I knew in the bar, but its not the same. I can't just latch onto another group, that's not my way. I'd feel out of place if I did that. I'm not the greatest at integrating well. It takes me time.

On a brighter note, I'm hopefully going to Edinburgh for a few days towards the end of October with one of the girls. I'm starting to really look forward to it and we haven't even booked anything yet!! I keep telling her it'll be freezing there at that time of year but her response is just that she'll wrap up well! My kinda girl!
