PLAY BALL!

Today work ended up being completely dead again, though sky movies provided entertainment for the majority of the day with the hilariously atrocious Dragonball Evolution and the vaguely acceptable, but entertaining Terminator Salvation. Looking out across Inverness high street I noticed a group of folk a couple of years younger than me screaming and swearing at someone, with the guys lolloping backwards and forwards threateningly in a manner that reminded me strongly of wildlife documentaries. After work I went to the smoothie bar in eastgate where an incredibly attractive female made me an incredibly tasty drink: definitely a highlight of my day in town. Tonight i went to Drews to engage in kitchen banter. after about half an hour we decided to something more interesting so bullied darroch into driving us to Tesco, via Abriachan (a.k.a. the long way). It ended up being an amazing night: after Tesco we were driving through town and noticed the river looked amazing as it was very near still so formed a mirror image of all the lights on the riverfront and bridges. We just stood there for a while talking which was cool. As we were leaving there Jonathan remarked on a guy walking past with a taller female and yelled "Look; he's totally getting laid tonight and HE'S short" referring to a previous conversation about short guys. What he didn't immediately realise was that the window was wide open and he heard every word. Luckily he carried on walking so we survived getting home, in the process seeing two badgers; an animal I've never seen in the wild. So its been a mediocre day made up for by an outstanding night. Song of the day is Boy Meets Girl - Waiting for a Star to Fall. Its another amazing 80's song that I rediscovered today. It was fairly recently sampled in some dance song but you can't beat the original.
