SATURDAY 17 MARCH

MEGA DISAPPOINTMENT! Elvin rang this morning to say he can’t fix my bike today after all. He said he was REALLY SORRY but he had to do something with his father that he couldn’t get out of. I told him that, having unreasonable parents of my own, I understood. So I won’t find out if we’re destined to Fall in Love until next weekend.

To cheer myself up, I went over to Disha’s. The other Paskis were all out. Since I’ve got a WHOLE WEEK before I see Elvin again I decided to use it constructively and asked Disha to cut my hair – after all, the DP is a time for experimentation. It took EONS because at first she was so terrified of taking too much off that she hardly cut it at all. Since Mr and Mrs Paski were out we then moved into their room, where there are two MAJOR mirrors, so I could monitor both front and back the whole time. That worked pretty well until Disha got so obsessed with making it TOTALLY even that she nearly exposed my EARS (one of them is slightly imperfect). We called it quits after that. I think it’s too short, but Disha says it’s v trendy and immediate. (What else is she going to say? That I look like my head’s been mown?) We might’ve had a fight, but then Disha remembered the dope we liberated from Calum’s desk. I pointed out that we didn’t have any tobacco, but Disha said she had a few fags stashed away. I asked Disha when she started smoking and she said she didn’t really smoke, she just liked to have one now and then when she felt stressed, and she could stop any time she wanted. I said did she mean like Sigmund (who stops at least twice a year) and we both laughed. We got some snacks and put a film on, and then we got the hash out from under the carpet. We weren’t sure how much to use, so we used the lot. I was trying v hard to follow the film, so I didn’t notice when Disha fell asleep. I didn’t even notice that I ATE ALL THE SNACKS (a family bag of crisps, a family bag of tortilla chips and an entire packet of custard creams) either. We both decided that this is not our drug. I definitely can’t afford something that turns me into a human Hoover. I walked all the way home (the REALLY LONG WAY) because I reckoned I needed the exercise. Stopped off at the shops and bought some hair dye (Purple Passion).
