A very good friend of mine left her job yesterday. It was a little bit out of the blue and so not a great occasion for her. She had a few people together in Soho and went to a Karaoke night. Lots of drink was consumed (I had soo many cokes and OJ's - cor i was hammered), and songs belted out at the top of drunken voices.
I don't often get to see my friend, so it is always great when we do hang out. We immediately fall into our comfortable intimacy routine and it does make me miss her more when I don't get to see her. It is very strange because most people haven't met her other half, and quite often people presume I am her boyfriend because of the way we are with each other. I have been friends with her since I was 16, so barring a handful of people from back in the SX, I have known her nearly the most out of my friends.
A certain song came on which she had requested that basically was a song that reminded her of me. I went to Australia when I was about 21 for a while, and she used to play this to remember me. I must admit I got a bit emotional (not in the emo sense - I wasn't self harming or sobbing into my drink or anything!) and I felt very touched that she would have the song playing specifically for me. I think she unfortunately misinterpreted a bit and thought I was upset rather than being sentimental. Much as we know each other, sometimes she is not great at reading my mood/emotions (she could never tell the difference between me being passionate about something and me talking aggressively!), but I still think she is one of the few people who has come closest to understanding me.
The night finished with the old classic of New York, New York (for all of the Essex people I know - yes it was like being in Tots on a Thursday) and everyone sauntered home.
