Today in work I was in the canteen stuffing my face with bags of crisps. I'm putting on weight in this job. It's all the sitting at a desk bored and talking to people on the phone who don't want to talk to me but have to. I think my targets are down, I spend too long on the phone and I'm not speaking to enough people.
While I was sitting there this girl came up to me and asked me if I remembered her from a party we were at last year. I stared for ages and I could tell she wanted me to remember her. I said yes, hoping that I could work out who she was as we went along. She said that she was twenty now, and she'd be turning twenty one later in the year.
She had a miserable look on her face, and I noticed she'd self harm marks on her arms. I think it must be shit to have scars on your arms and shit from self harm. I knew a girl at school who had a huge (and strange) crush on BA Baracus and scored his name into her arms with scissors. Now when she gets a tan she looks like a walking advert for the A-Team. I saw her a few years ago and she told me that it was pure shit because she didn't even fancy BA anymore.
I said to the girl that she should invite me to her birthday because it was about time we were at another cool party together. She started to cry and said she knew I didn't remember.
That's all I need, crap targets, off sick, making people cry. They'll fire my ass for sure. Who was she?
Wasn't there some girl she said was going to top herself on her birthday at a party last year?
ReplyDeleteI knew someone at school who scratched someone's name into their arm. I think the idea came from a Placebo song, silly bitch.
ReplyDeleteA skank.
ReplyDeleteAfter several minutes of fruitless online antics I have found you, oh tuesday kid! Cheers for the add thing, bro, much appreciated and quite honestly rather titillating to get a stranger adding me! Everyone on this island with a decent blog appears to be from the Northern reaches though! Curse our weak southern blood!
ReplyDeleteDavey Banes - That's the girl.
ReplyDeletePatty Pat - I'd sooner have BA on my arm that Brian Molko.
Anon - Don't be mean.
Incredinane - No probs, the southern blood has no tnt in it but it's a good blood all the same.
