The Scene: My Kitchen
The Object: One 2-Liter Bottle of Sainsbury's Diet Lemonade, 2/3 full
The Objective: Drink Said Lemonade
The Scenario: I go into the kitchen heavy with thirst. As I rarely buy bottles of soda for the home (they are too heavy to carry with other groceries), I am filled with excitement as I open the fridge to drink my rarely-there treat. My soda is not in the door where I left it.
The Reaction: Shock, Confusion, Anger
The Action: Check all over the kitchen as well as fridge #2 in the hallway.
The Suspects: Flatmate #1 - Me to her: Hey! Have you seen my lemonade by any chance? It's a 2-liter Sainsbury's Diet Lemonade and it was in the door of the fridge but I can't find it anywhere. Her to me: Provides a very sincere answer saying she didn't take it and suggests alternatives to where it may be or that perhaps someone else thought it was their's (strange considering there was a 2-liter bottle of Schweppes Lemonade on the table which is obviously better quality and worth more but no one took that.)
Flatmate #2 - Me to her: Same as above. Her to me: Shrugs and grunts.
Flatmate #3 - Me to her: Same as above. Her to me: Same as Flatmate #1 with an added 'I didn't drink it!'
Flatmate #4 - Not questioned yet, but she admitted to finishing off someone's milk last week.
Thief may also be linked to my dwindling shaving gel.
Songs I'm obsessed with at the moment:
Rifles - 'Peace and Quiet'
OK Go - 'Here It Goes Again'
Muse - 'Starlight'
The Automatic - 'Recover'
Snoop Dog v. Huey Lewis and the News - 'Drop It Like It's Huey'
The Killers - 'When You Were Young' (yes, I admit it)
Also, I double booked myself for two gigs in one night. This is very annoying considering I haven't been to one in months. The original is Art Brut at Mean Fiddler, the second one is The Stills at 93 Feet East, both on 15/11/06. I'd rather see The Stills but think I've gotta get myself out of that one. Anyone want to buy my ticket?
Current Music: Badly Drawn Boy - The Blossoms

You may perhaps try another drink.
It took awhile for that Killers song to grow on me. But the press on the new CD sounds bad. I don't know if I am going to risk it.
All I've got in the flat is tap water, white wine, and vodka, hence the disappointment. I think I'm just going to put the next bottle in my cupboard and add ice when I want it.
going to see Art Brut tomorrow at Irving and just got tix for Stills at Bowery. REALLY can't wait to see The Stills!!
Last time I saw The Stills it was a free show and they played the whole album in order, it was so good! Have fun tomorrow!
