My Halloween - a true story by me.

people's names haven't been changed to protect the guilty
 

us on halloweenWoken cruelly by boyf  at about 10 telling me the guys to fit the door were
    here, comment repeated by my mother 10 mins later (*note: this is after five
    hours sleep),
Puttered around house cooking him food while door-installing-guys made jokes
    about son-in-laws (seems funnier as you reach the bottom...)
Around 1 I did his make up perfectly and fucked up mine :( continued
    argument with makeup until 2 when I finally managed something resembling a
    very sick goth (i.e.. not what I wanted) managed to scab a lift to DART and
    got train into town. got stared at on dart, on way to bank etc. etc.
I'll snip boring bits so, let's just say it involved a guy in a dress, blokes in girls
    toilets, make-up and lots of glitter.
At about 6 got to fibbers (paid a fiver instead of 7
    quid :)
Somewhere around 8 made the mistake of letting said boyf have half a litre
    of vodka. half an hour later I have to try and control a very drunken young
    man (also attributed to several pints of bulmers and some pernod I
    mistakenly gave him), then give up trying to control him and  pay a visit to
    the bar to join him in his happy place. succeed.
Then after much laughing at him lying on the ground in the beer garden and
    running around like a blue arsed fly, wanting to moon the beer garden,
    having many pictures taken of him (not often people see a very drunk fairy
    running around telling complete strangers he loves them) he also succeeded
    in telling me: first, he loved me and second, he was really sorry and I'm
    never to give him spirits again about a million times.
Somewhere around 11 we decided to get married. (truth and still gonna)
Somewhere around 12 he passes out on my shoulder, and proceeds to drool on
    my chest and himself.
Around 1230 it takes three of us to wake him up by slapping him about the face.
    ban him from eating the curry, due to not wanting him to be sick all over me.
    proceed to try to get him to walk and talk like a normal human being and
    apologize to anyone he bashes into.
Around 1 finally get him outside and on the way to BK and so I now have to
    control an awake, drunken, rowdy young man while his friends are carrying
    another one and my friends are somewhere behind us explaining to police that
    they're not normally like that.
Arrive in burger king, order him a double whopper and he proceeds to swallow
    it whole (well not quite but nearly) persuade him to wash off  makeup for
    walk to south circular road, he complies and we all leave quickly as lot of
    scangers walk in. continue on our way to free house.
Get there, after losing two of the guys on the way. sit around for about two
    hours talking and stuff. finally somewhere around four, or so, eight of us
    get into a giant bed. (not as comfortable as it sounds) people drop off
    around 6, which means me and declan (my friend helene's boyf) were left
    awake and unable to move due to her pinning his leg down and my boyf half
    lying on me. smoke, talk and generally take the piss out of sleeping people.
    wake boyf's best friend mark around 730 cause he was going to work at 8,
    fall asleep around the time mark leaves.
Wake up at 1100 for no reason to find just about everybody awake. we lose
    two more guys, before declan and my friend sian go to shop for food, leaving
    helene, me and boyf to drink hidden coke (no one else knew about it) and
    smoke several cigarettes. they arrive back with pizza and smash. proceed to
    lie in bed while others cook food. get up to eat, go back to bed, get up to
    eat chocolate ice-cream, go back to bed. get up to wash dishes, go back
    to bed, get up to laugh at some eastenders, go back to bed. get moved out
    of bed at around 5 and told we all have to leave. we leave and proceed to
    coffee shop where chicken wings and sautéed potatoes are consumed.
Walk into town, nearly get persuaded to go to fibbers again and go home.

and so the outcome is:

1. I have a really bad cold and am very tired.

2. I am now engaged to be married to said boyf

yep, indeedy.

I am engaged and stuff

*sigh*
