Sinister: I'm feeling so blue, cos I'm head over heels in love with you
I've not had any Sinister posts all day so I thought I'd write one myself. This evening I went with my two new friends from Sussex uni to the Silver Dollar, its a really nice little bar near uni. It looks a complete dive from the outside and we never thought we'd go there cos it looks so dodge and is next door to a hotel that looks like it hires out rooms by the hour...but a month ago, we were told to go on a Wednesday because its bluegrass night and is very good, so we went along and have been there every week since, me and Carrie, she is nice, we get along well in one of those recently-met-but-I-think-we-might-end-up-really-good-mates kind of ways. I'm glad because it means we never run out of things to say, which is often a problem with people you don't know and don't really want to know either. We've started to recognise and sing along to a few of the songs on bluegrass night. Tom thinks that is really sad and laughed at us. Tonight he came along too, because we decided he needed a night out. I had thought it would be a good idea, but he put a dampner on things, because he started to laugh at me for liking pork, sun dried tomato, basil and parmesan sausages from Sainburys, and I got in a mood, he's always criticising something. And he just sat there, not talking, and my plan to get him to snap out of whatever is his problem didn't work. Tom is difficult sometimes, a lot of the time, and it can affect others. He enjoys his depressiveness. I also think he is being stupid at the moment because he wants to go home to England at Xmas and not come back, and I think thats a big mistake, just giving up this chance of living somewhere new for a year. Theres only five months left anyway, and Toronto is cooler than anywere I've been to in Britain. So I sat in silence ignoring Tom and watched the guitarist who looked like his heart wasn't in it tonight. He only sang one song and he sounded as bored/tired/unhappy as he looked. But the crowd didn't mind. They had a new girl bassist to look at, and some weird bloke dancing, he looked like he was on speed cos he kept rubbing and scratching his head as he was bopping along.
