I got loads of dissertation reading done this morning. I got up nice and early and read just under two chapters of 'The Art of Failing: An Essay on the Pain of Playing Video Games' which is quite interesting.  

Courtney came back from her conference and I suddenly became significantly less productive. We talked about what a good time she had had, how she may have found someone to take her place once she moves to Exeter and one professor who she became friendly with. It sounds like she had a lush time and (although she didn't think so) she seemed to fit in quite well ..more than I would at a conference anyway! 

In the evening we decided to get drunk and watch a movie. Amy came in but had been at work and was shattered and so decided not to drink. Because the house doesn't have internet yet, our choices of what to watch were quite limited. We ended up watching a piece of shit called 'Crawl Space' in which literally NOTHING happened. 

Courtney decided she needed to go out but wasn't really in the mood for a bar so we met up with Vicky and her friend Emily at a shisha place. Me and Courtney got one to share and it was dead nice. The four of us sat around for hours, drinking the 'juice' we had brought from home and talking.
