So, yeah I'm trying to plan my birthday celebrations. It's tricksy.
Things I Would Like to Do (For My Birthday):
1) Get Drunk.
Not too difficult, this one. I'm well versed in the art of over-indulgence.
2)Have lots of people to get drunk with, in MY HONOUR. Mine. I want people to say to themselves "Well. Crikey. Léonie is my friend and how can I not do the decent thing and get trashed on her birthday and tell her how much she means to me? And also show her how much she means to me by buying her expensive gifts?" Only I wouldn't be friends with anyone who used the word crikey.
3) Find the Coolest bar in all of Londonsville in which to stage the above.

It's tricksy, well numbers two and three are. Because what if I actually have no friends, and all the friends I thought I had are either busy or have been seriously over-using the word crikey and therefore are Off The List?
And also what if there's just nowhere to go and I end up having a long bath and a glass of Cava all alone? (That actually sounds quite appealing. Calling that one Plan B.)
Everyone else in the world seems to just be able to wake up one morning and be like "(Dude) La la la it's satur.. wait.. hold on.. it's my BIRTHDAY! Oh what? A party? For me? Arranged by all my close friends who rarely if never use the word crikey? Well. How nice."
For me? Not so much. Some of my friends who I'd love to see are in Warwick and probabaly have rehearsals (if this doesn't make sense I'll explain it later. Actually thinking about it.. I went to uni in Warwick and my friends are from the Musical Theatre Society there.. not so difficult. Oh.. my.. God.. cannot.. escape.. these..parentheses..closing.. in...argh).
It would mean a lot to me to see them but I know they won't come.
And everyone else? Well yes I suppose they might come. But, like everything else in the WHOLE FUCKING WORLD I choose to focus on the negatives.
Ay me.
What do you think of this bar?

Looks cool to me but I've never been there so I can't really make an informed decision. I'll keep you posted. (I bet you're gnashing your teeth with excitement at the prospect of another installment of 'Léonie's Ridiculous Insecurities').
Whatever.
Oh, and yeah I nearly forgot... what are you doing next Saturday?
