September

11 days. 11 days into September and I decide to do a blog post about things going on in September. The reason I chose today is that today is the day I started my blog 3 years ago. It was pointless then and it's gone full circle to become pointless now, often stopping off at being pointless at random months in between when all I was doing was the occasional rant and/or boring record post to kill time I had too much of. Now, of course, I'm out of school and working so most of my time is filled up with...actually, nope. Still Guitar Hero and watching TV. Not complaining though, not in the slightest.

Instead of talking about things happening this month, I figure I could share a few details about things that happened last month. See, that's an improvement and it only took me 3 years to figure it out! Last month I did see 'Horrible Bosses' and 'Cowboys And Aliens'. Both are great films for different reasons but I enjoyed 'Horrible Bosses' a Hell of a lot more. It's a hilarious film and a great comedy I could happily sit through again and again and again. If it doesn't win Comedy Of The Year at whatever bullshit awards show does this kind of self indulgent pap...I still won't care...unless 'Bridesmaids' wins, then I might blow a ball open.
In the end, I didn't make the Epic Meal with friends. We talked about it, I drew up a plan, I gave it a name, we planned a date and then they bailed. Luckily I only bought a few of the ingredients so they didn't spend any money, which is good. They also got to use the time painting Warhammer instead whereas I had to cancel plans I originally had for the day because I assumed they actually had an interest in something I wanted to do as a group. Should've seen the bail coming, since it's not the first time. I'm still kicking myself for the money I wasted on WoW related products, not to mention the hours I've put into training Pokemon on my old Red cartridge with the idea of playing with them after lengthy conversations about this very fucking subject. Silly me.
I'm not angry at them. Different friends pulled this shit with me so it's mostly my fault for not learning anything about trusting people. I'm just a tad frustrated they didn't tell me "No, we don't really want to do this as much as you" when I asked them if they were 100% sure they were up for it. I could understand if they didn't want to go ahead with it. I would've accepted their decision and moved on, that would've been it. What I don't like is when somebody says, "Yeah, we'll do it" and can't keep their own affairs together, pissing all over the plans and leaving me (it's usually me) with egg on my face...or a ton of Hash Browns in my freezer.

I shouldn't blame them for not telling the truth. After all, I haven't told them how I feel about the whole thing. I'm kind of banking on them reading this (since they're the only people who read my blog) because I don't have the nads to say it all to their faces. At the same time, if they are reading this, I don't want you to say "Oh OK, let's do the meal then" just because of what I've said. If you don't want to do it, we won't do it. Simple as that. If you really do want to do it and are committed to making a great meal, not a half arsed abomination we'll end up binning, then we'll give it a shot.
So feel free to get in touch...or don't, I'm not sure I care anymore. Who knows, maybe they've forgotten me because I was a bit of a cunt and I'm just talking to myself. ... Moving on! Other than work, playing GH and seeing Iron Maiden, that's everything worth talking about in August. I'll talk about my September within the first couple of weeks of October but before that date, I plan on making a few posts this month. Posts to do with Guitar Hero that I'll be making at the end of September.
Right then, that's it. Feel free to resume not giving a shit and I'll go back to staring at my phone placed delicately on a noisy surface so that when it vibrates I'll hear it straight away and will be able to quickly react to contact anybody tries to make with me. Be seeing you.


P.S. Once again, I'm not annoyed about the meal thing. I AM, however, irritated about WoW and Pokemon. So just in case this thought has entered your heads and you're considering asking me the next time we get in touch, no I will not spend any money or time buying, painting and customising little fucking Warhammer statues with you.
