Right so typical improv night, besides me skipping out on the first hour having met a mate a little later than expected, I'll admit to being a little down due to the news from last week which one or two members decide to use to an advantage in "I love you but I just can't smile", but shall remain nameless!

Anyhows the usual antics resumed in Fab Cafe with the casual crew as we typically like to do, closing time comes and we part ways. Now walking home I got talking to two girls from Glasgow (I'm a sucker for a Glaswegian accent, I mean seriously, it gets me wetter than Shahansha in a nursery), they wanted pointing towards the hotel they were staying at, I gladly obliged and joined them for a few after party drinks in the hotel bar where we were joined by a jolly Canadian who seemed hell bent on getting us all wankered (seriously he was buying everybody rounds of drinks). Got talking to a few folks in a similar line of work as me, made connections and all that.

Got back to my Scottish bird, she was rather tasty, I unintentionally cock blocked the Canadian guy, but he ended up bedding the 'larger' girl of the two, whilst I kept my eyes on the prize! Though to little avail she had a boyfriend and was pretty faithful, so overall I got pretty plastered stayed up ridiculously late to the point where it made no sense to sleep (I've not been to bed yet! My head hurts...) But had most of my drinks bought by a Canadian guy who ended up getting his rocks off with an oversized girl!

Good night.
Out again Shahansha?

Out again last night with Shahansha, every night seems to end up mental with that guy. Head over to the usual haunt after a quick pint in Paramount. Shahansha suggested setting ourselves a target of approaching within 10 minutes, I said 5 for a laugh, but fair dues the first two girls in the door and he was on them like flies on shit.

I had set a timer on my phone which then went off whilst doing a number exchange, kind of funny but nobody noticed. Don't usually entertain that type of stuff so I blame Shahansha haha!

Anyway, open a few conversations, got yelled at by one girl acting as the 'alpha' of the group, it's funny to try to diffuse these situations, I typically just jump back chilled and say 'calm down I'm just saying hi!', to be honest it didn't get me anywhere but she responds with 'sorry I'm just being overprotective' and then pulls her friends away to the bar.

Shahansha noticed one of the lair guys where there is apparently a rivalry (I honestly can't be arsed with rivalry between forums, I think most here are the same to be fair) or at least some animosity. He looked a right tosser! Really creepy guy obviously pea-cocked to shit. He'd sent one of the guys he was with to interrupt our conversation, not used to that to be honest, just responded with 'who are you?' not sure if he left because it was awkward or because he recognised me, either way it was a tad funny.

The night carried on, we talk to folk, though I'm finding myself more and more disinterested in actually pulling, I'm just enjoying the conversation and meeting people right now so did one or two phone number swaps but that was it. I'll admit it seems a lot easier to go and talk to somebody since your not really after anything, there's no pressure.

After that we went to BDBR, and to be honest it's the first time I've been in there after 12, I really don't rate it at all, sat talking to some guys on the side, got a few photos had a few laughs, made what I could with it.

Heading home and I pop into Burger King (I hate doing this since I'm supposed to be training, but hell after a few beers it seems like a good idea). This was strange though I'm really unsure what happened, the guy gives me an extra burger and a large drink when I only ordered a small. Nothing in my experience comes free so I'm wondered how I was tricked there, ah well.

Fun times had by all.

You were fucked by the end of it and showed me a funny text.

When am I not fucked by the end of it lol, and what funny text was that? Remember you leaving at some point in BDBR

Check the text you sent your girl at 4am.

I left same time as you, brah.

Lol fuck me, remember you walking past thought you must have been leaving, don't remember passed that point. Good times :P

I ran the Manchester 10k today, I ran for charity but I'm not the one to boast philanthropy, partly the reason I had ran, was because I set myself a challenge, I had set myself a challenge to run in a certain time bracket [50-55 mins], not an all that impressive feat I shall admit, but a challenge nonetheless. So I set myself the target and I prepared, and I achieved it, none greater is the satisfaction of achieving what one sets out to obtain, unless of course that sense of satisfaction comes from true acceptance of ones self, but that's another story.

Drunk now, celebrating the victory!

Went out for improv last night, first time in a few weeks since i've been a bit ill, had been drinking all day with no food so suffice to say I was completely and utterly ruined. Being that smashed however made it somewhat hilarious, I couldn't even hold a conversation during story tag, but seemed to manage questions alright. Fun times were had by all.

Was it busy?

So I wrote on here about taking a risk with a new job, new life etc, still based here in the big Manc, but completely different to what I used to do, there was a huge risk as to whether I would take to it. I did, or at least I took the risk, if at the very least for shits and giggles, thinking of following through and moving as well, should probably leave it a few weeks to make sure it all works out.

This is all great and all but I've noticed a certain behaviour characteristic in myself and I'm not sure what to take from it, I've noticed that whenever I get comfortable, or where things get static (I'm in the same job, same relationship, same home) I choose to throw it into the wind. It seems a sense of content comes with a sense of unease for me. Nevertheless, let's see how things wind up!
