I was excited for today. I'd been playing Tekken all day (damn it's addictive) and it was nearing the time Alex would arrive to cook me and my mates a roast dinner. Alex arrived a little later than he said he would but as soon as he got here we walked to Sainsburys in the spitting rain to buy the ingrediants for tonight. It didn't take us long but I was exhausted by the time we got back, not entirely sure why. Matt and Ellie were already here, Matt spent most of the time on the Wii until he'd finished his Animal Crossing rubbish. I started doing the washing up, keeping Alex company as he cut up the veg. I gave Lewis a text and he came round. One thing me and Alex had forgotten was gravy mix so Lewis and Ellie kindly went to the corner shop to buy some.
When everyone was back we spent most of our time messing around in the kitchen, we were all getting very hungry and the roast smelt so good. It was really nice of him to do this for all of us for nothing more than the pure pleasure of cooking for us. I hope he is now in all of their good-books now! The roast in the end was bloody lovely. I don't think I've had a nicer one (sorry mum). I felt sorry for him later on when he told me he usually doesn't get that kind of apprciation for his cooking at home. If someone's made the effort, they should always be thanked! I think my mum felt a bit sad for him too when I told her, after all, I think she'd be upset with my dad if he did the same!
After completly stuffing ourselves we played some Call of Duty but Lewis was a bit too tired so we only had a couple of 4 way matches. We then went retro and played crash team racing before wondering what to do. Alex wanted to go to the cinema if anything was on but we'd missed most things by this time and I was too tired to sit through a film anyway. Alex then suggested we went to Blockbusters instead to look for a film, I didn't mind going for a walk so I took him there while the others played Super Mario Bros together on the Wii.
When we got to Blockbusters, they were closing so we couldn't really choose a film. Instead we walked home, I phoned Lewis and asked if they all wanted to go and get pudding somewhere. They all came along and the only place we could find open was Ben and jerrys at the cinema so we had some ice-cream and started to slowly walk back. Lewis was a bit odd, he was either feeling down or just very, very tired. Maybe a mixture of both but he went back to his flat pretty soon after we all got back to mine. Matt stayed but didn't want to play anything so he watched me and Alex play Spec Ops together. Ellie had a long phonecall from Tom so we didn't see her for the rest of the night either. So it was just me and Alex, running around the Favelas shouting "GET RAPED!", our new catchphrase, at the computer blasting our machine-gun pistols. Great fun and very funny! We got a few more stars too! Matt went to bed quite early whilst me and Alex stayed up until about 2am when he headed home.
So all in all, a good day. I'd accidently pissed off one of my friends due to my own stupidity though. Hope she's not too annoyed with me. Now it's just a shame I don't have much to look foward to this week! Need to get my arse in gear with more work :(
