Well, at the beginning of this evening I really wasn't looking forward to going out, I was tired and work had done me in. I was meeting the girls at 8 in Sutton so had to leave by 7 to get the buses.

I'm glad I went, we had such a laugh. Stopped for a quick drink at the top of the high street then worked our way down. Dinner first, we saw a familiar face go by the window and waved, so that was nice. Dinner was okay although the menu seems to have shrunk.

Pootled down the high street for a drink in a bar that used to be really busy. Got in and it was full of older people and bad music. Got some drinks and sat down only to be joined slightly later by two men who I'd seen hovering. We'd already said we'd leave after that drink so we downed them and went on. They asked where we were going and we said we'd probably do a crawl down the high street. We managed to ditch them, although they almost caught us, and go to the new Mosaic. This place has changed its name at least eight times since I've known it, probably more. We were a bit dubious but it was really good in there.

We found a seat and there were some lads about. They seem to flock to our friend S but we saw them off. Two lads sitting near us got our attention and for about half an hour we were wondering where we knew them from. Finally worked it out, but could only remember one of their names, felt guilty about not remembering or managing to find out the other guys name as he was kind of cute. We worked out it was about 8 to 9 years since we've seen them. There's always a draw back to meeting old friends, back then I was a bit messed up and confussed and did a few things I wish I hadn't, but thats just the way it goes. The girls wanted me to get the nameless ones number and left me alone so I had an oppourtunity but I'm no good at those things. Plus I was worried about awkward-ness I guess.

The most amazing part of the evening was that we walked round to our usual cab company and there was no queue. In fact there were five cab ready to take fares. First time ever thats happened to us and it just rounded off the night perfectly. As we drove out of town we passed the two lads walking down the road, I almost asked the driver to stop but something stopped me. I think I possibly didn't want to ruin the evening. I don't know why I keep stopping myself from trying to live a little.

Anyway, off to bed dear friends as this is the latest night out I've had in ages. We made it all the way through to 2am, we're usually faultering by then but I still feel great... it wont last!
