thora's totally face blog

thora · thora's totally face blog

So, it's 10am, I've already been up for MORE THAN 3 AND A HALF HOURS

and I'm bored... This is my first ever blog actually. Sadly, I'm not drunk often enough these days to match the quantity or quality of MissKitty's drunken ramblings, I can but try though.

I went back to London at the weekend, which was

, and attempted to make up for my lack of regular drunkeness by getting proper drunk at the Tolling Gang meet up :-/ I could write more, but I've got bored of this now too. That's one of my many problems actually - I'm a born quitter with a short attention span.

misskitty

Don't worry Thora - it's not easy for me to run a highly successful online blog on one the most successful online bulletain boards on the internet for free.

Keep at it.

wraeth

Yes - let's all encourage Thora

We need more blogs. We need more Thora.

I haven't done any blog at all yet

misskitty

And its a highly awaited tome I can tell you!!

wraeth

It will be full of important and cool mumblings

your mum

I've thought about blogging everything I eat.

misskitty

This season, I have mostly been eating....

I had a nap this morning so I'm feeling a little better now.

For my lunch today I had penne pasta in a tomato, red onion and olive sauce wot I made myself, with salad. And very tasty it was too. I also finished off the half a jar of baby food that the baby I look after didn't eat :? Baby food is my new favourite food, it's totally face. I particularly like the Hipp Bio pasta bambini range, and any of the jars of fruit

So, I've been working since about 6pm on Monday evening, and I finish sometime around 7 tonight - that's one hardcore shift innit

But it does mean I'm not working again til Monday, which is pretty sweet. The baby is driving me nuts today, she's in the worst mood ever for no obvious reason, and she keeps climbing onto things and then letting go and smacking her head. Dumbass. Also, she obsessive-compulsively licks her lips (I think her tongue's too big) which makes her lips all dry and cracked, so I've been putting vaseline on them, but that just makes her lick off the vaseline :?

Anyway, so when I finish tonight I'm going to go round to my Portugese friend Nuna's house and getting drunk. Despite living in Berlin I have pretty much no German friends - Portugese, Japanese, Australian, Irish, English - but no Germans. Weird. So anyway, if you're lucky you may get drunken ramblings later. They have kebab shops on train platforms here, so you can always get a kebab on your way home from the pub. How face is that?

END TRANSMISSION

misskitty

I like Berlin. The have shikey-mickey bars there. Or sommat.

wraeth

Berlin is face. Wish I'd been there

thora

misskitty

Oooh, I dunno really either. Some tour guide told us on our nightlife tour. Didn't really understand what that one was. But I liked the beach bar and the communist one, they were fun.

wraeth

I thought you meant a choccie bar

Ninjadmin

berlin is the cool

specially the bit off the james bond movie

My day off has been stolen from me!

Not that I really had any plans or owt, but that so isn't the point, is it? I work for the mother of the baby I look after, and she's away working all weekend - but the baby's father has her this weekend at his place. Anyway, so he pops round today with the baby, says he's going into town and do I need anything. I think, ooh, that's nice of him, and ask him to get me some credit for my phone while he's out. He says no problem, thanks for watching the baby, see you in a couple of hours.

Now wait a minute, I never agreed to watch the baby ON MY DAY OFF! Harsh

so are you a sexy english au pair thora?

OK, so you know that panicky feeling you get when you realise you may have done A VERY BAD THING when drunk, but you can't for the life of you remember what? I bet MissKitty's blurry familiar with that feeling... Anyway, I can be a bit of a cunt when I've had one too many lager shandies, and I found out today that I was indeed quite cunty to someone while lagered up but had erased all memories with alcohol

But this was something I did two weeks ago and I've only just been told!

Harsh. So now I'm feeling totally not face, and I'm still not sure exactly what I did.

I shall go out tomorrow night and get trashed on German beer anyway. I'm meeting up with an Australian girl who stayed at a squat I was living in in London last summer - she moved to Berlin in October. I've been trying to track her down since I got here, but it was all a bit complicated and drawn out cos I had to get in touch with her through this girl in Greece who couldn't get to t'internet much cos she broke her leg :-/ So anyway, we're meeting at this folk kitchen night at Cafe Morgenrot

wraeth

Anyone that can't forgive A Very Bad Thing when under the inflence must either be a saint :smt059 or delusional. *considers own Very Bad Things

* Anyway, it can't have been that bad or someone would have told you MUCH earlier

That's a good name for a cafe. Not as good as Cafe Gutrot though, which would have been my choice in naming a bar

Ugh. Mein kopf

Went out last night and got very very drunk on cheap German beer. First went to a punk party, full of suprisingly attractive German crustpunks - band was rubbish, and as far as I could tell were Deutsch, but 'sang' in a carefully honed mockney accent :? But I was quite drunk. Then went to what I was told was a technoparty - I was expecting something a bit more London-style, dirty scummy techno on an abandoned industrial estate in Hackney kinda thing. This, however, was more like how an advertising executive thinks a technoparty should be. It was nice though, no crackheads or dogs fighting. Anyway, so a friend of mine from Londizzle randomly showed up at the first bar I was at, which was way way

He's totally face. When my hangover is subsided a little I'm going to try to meet up with him today.

Good thing - I was competent enough when I got in last night to make myself cheese on toast before I passed out

Bad thing - I was so incompetent I left the front door unlocked and wide open. Whoops!

thora

Also, had v.weird and real-seeming dream last night about me and that Spanglechick off of Urban 75 (who I've never met) trying to dodge a ticket inspector on the trains in Berlin. Was very weird and scary. That JTG fella was in it too, but only in a minor supporting role (sunbathing on grass verge iirc) :? :? :?

misskitty

Thats me bro innet?

wraeth

Sounds like an excellent night out Thora

I had a weird dream last night too. Probably as a result of spending a few hours in chat last night. I dreamt it all just got quicker and quicker - different user names but peeps explaining who they were an they were really someone else - then they all turned out to be different manifestations of krs :? :? :? Wasn't horrible, just weird

thora

wraeth

I have once, at that party last weekend. Seems just as top as misskitty and strung out

misskitty

Arr, cheers. Well we all bring sommat different to the melting pot. Mine is stunning good looks and bags of talent

Heh. Nah, all me bros are lovely fellahs, probaly all more intelligent than me

Speaking as someone who brings wrinkles and a shiny pate to the forum I would like to say that following a night up with 28 days later I dreamt that I went to heaven (some athiest I am). It looked remarkably like Oxford, was very clean and I kept bumping into people I have not seen for a long time. There were an awful lot of ex-girlfriends around. Some of them had even managed to get over the trauma of going out with me and regained some degree of sanity.

Ninjadmin

don't like 28 days later

2wheeledathiest

get the shorter version, three weeks after the monkey bites.

The narrative is somewhat derivative and plot mechanisms are forced as opposed to developed and grown. Naive but a bit of a larf.

thora

Anyhoo, went to meet me friend and his sister for breakfast at Cafe Morgenrot - it does an all day breakfast buffet thing, where you can help yourself to however many helpings you want

I always see those kind of things as a challenge though, you know? So I eat loads more than I really want to just to get value for money. And they don't charge you a set amount either, it's by donation with a guideline or 3 to 7 euros, so obvo paid 3. Who actually pays 7 eh?

My mate and his sis have gone off sightseeing or summat now, so I'm just recuperating a bit before a night out in Berlin's finest squats later. Gonna have a takeaway curry for tea. Sweet.

2wheeledathiest

Was in Berlin in 1979. I expect it has changed a bit since then. Have a good evening.

People are bloody useless feckin feckers and they don't half make me cross sometimes

I was meant to be meeting up with someone this afternoon, but they cancelled AT THE LAST MINUTE, but in retrospect that was probably for the best cos I had hideous womb pain all day. So tonight I had two possibilites for going out and getting hammered - either going out with me friend Nuna to find some drumnbass somewhere, or going to a birthday party for a friend of a friend. Obviously the dnb sounds more fun, and if I wanted to go to the birthday party I'd have had to confirm with my friend by now. But NOW, at half past 9 on a Saturday night no less, Nuna has started wavering about whether or not she wants to go out "I'll just have a shower and see how I feel then" and all that kind of rubbish

And I think its too late now to try to get hold of my other friend about the birthday party

So I might end up sitting in on the tin tin net on a Saturday night

Ninjadmin

i seem to get stuck in on saturday a lot n' all

on the bright side, "hideous womb pain" is a fucking wicked name for a punk band

so it wasn't a total waste

thora

Thanks ninj, I do feel oddly comforted by that :?

Ninjadmin

glad to be of help ma'am

2wheeledathiest

Went out with family to see V for Vendetta. Is quite cool. Home for home made burgers and wine. All seem cotent.

thora

Well I did go out in the end

. No one in Berlizzle leaves the house before about 11pm anyway, so I was fussing unneccessarily. We went to a club called 'Rosi's' - with a name like that I thought it would be cheesy as fuck, however it wasn't, it was face. It was in this random building in the bad part of town

surrounded by piles of rubble and abandoned sofas and stuff... but the club itself was cool, and even had a BEACH and a bbq outside. Techo, dnb and cheapo drinks, I got hammered on voddy redbull. Crawled home about 5 this morning I think, but suprisingly feel fine :-/

thora

Goodness me, I haven't done me blog in ages! Well, it's been a busy few days cos I've had my little sister visiting me, so I'm going to do this blog in photos

This was our Saturday night out in Berlin...

I had to pick my sister up very early in the morning from the airport. She's really not a morning person, hence the 'tude.

This is us before we go out - only a bottle of wine has been consumed at this point

And this is my sister straightening my hair. I never use hair straighteners so this is quite exciting - it actually makes your hair too hot to touch

On the tram. Berlin has trams - very face

We are both very drunk now, but holding it together quite well. My sister does start singing the Dad's Army theme tune however, which may be very slightly inappropriate :-/

On the way home. We stopped to buy pizza.

We found a shopping trolley somewhere on the way home. I fell out of it and now have a bruised arse

thora

Heh, how narcissistic is that? Just loads of pictures of me... but it is my blog I guess.

Here's me with Marx and Engels anyway

misskitty

Cool pics Thora. Love the descent into drunkenness! Shopping trollies abounding, huzzah (Hasn't everyone...).

I want more Thora

2wheeledathiest

Shopping trolleys. Good to see old fashioned traditional values being maintained. And what a coincidence, I also do not use hair straighteners, small world ey?

2wheeledathiest

thora

Long time no blog eh?

I had to work yesterday, so I got up at 7am

So not face, espesh since I'd been out the night before. By about midnight I was ready to go to bed, but just as I did a friend of mine called and asked if I wanted to meet her after work and go out. Well why not? It was the start of the weekend after all! My friend works as a tour guide taking stag parties and the like on pub crawls, so she reckoned she'd be done about 1.30am and she'd give me a call then. So I take a shower, get ready to go out, have couple of glasses of martini and orange juice (it was all I had), decide to have a little lie down and shut my eyes for five minutes... and now I've just woken up and it's only blahdy 10 am innit!!!!
