The Week In Review

Lets see what have I done this week ? The most interesting night by far I will describe for you below:-
Caught up with a mate earlier in the week. He came around with his new girlfriend and I made a green curry duck. The duck was excellent, and the conversation was lively. We drank a bottle of wine and after dinner decided to go play some pool (8 ball) at the local.
We walked in and I slapped a buck down on the table. In my town, if someones on the table you have to pay for the next game against them...if you win you're on the table. The guy playing said "these people must like dying" loudly, to his chick. My friend and I were both somewhat under the weather and replied loudly, that yes...we loved dying and proceeded to kick his butt at pool.
Meanwhile, my friends girlfriend had struck up a conversation with said chick. As it turned out she was a junkie, had four kids already, all in foster care, and a fifth on the way. Her boyfried (who we just played in pool) was a lousy drunk who slapped her around. They swapped phone numbers (what the ?) and the junkie chick said she'd call the next day.
My friend was annoyed at his new girlfriend, and we left the pub, went back to mine with a few take away beers, and had a long conversation about how you can't help everyone...and why would you want this person calling you or potentially comming around to your place ? His girlfriend was like "you can't write people off" and we were like "why not....wouldn't you learn after the first illigit, taken off you at birth child ?" I admit it was complex, and I agree to an extent that people deserve a second chance.....but you can't help a person who won't help themselves...believe me, I know.
Anyway, I enjoyed the night...I like mixing it up in the pub from time to time, I always meet interesting people, and many I never ever want to see again - LOL
