Aaaanyway, only a week of call centre hell left and I'm outta here. Three weekends left at the bar plus new years eve which is fine because drunk people are easier to handle than call centre customers and probably drool less too then I'm back where I belong.

On the road.

There are many many things worth lying about in this world, Onetormented. Things such as the one that got away, penis size or "what do you mean offishur? I havent had a drink all night. -hic-"

Mullet size is not one of them. Its a bit like lying that you wet the bed until the age of 17 or you're still a virgin at the age of 45. Ya just don't do it :p
