And The Email Bear Said: “So we are going to Thailand for New Years, are you coming?………”
That would be a most ridiculous thing to do
Yes but are you going?
Well, I’m flying back from Indonesia in November for nowt, as it’s the company return ticket – and due to the fact this merry jamboree of debauchery wasn’t thought of earlier, I’d be paying the best part of a grand to go all the way back out to where I’ve just been, all for a couple of weeks over New Year – it does not financial sense make I tell you!
Yeah, yeah, yeah….money schmummy – you save for trips like these – that’s the point of saving - not future security, pensions, downpayments on houses and investments you don’t understand!
....and then there is the whole haven’t seen the family thing – a year gone and then I’m back for a month and then gone again
Family Schamily – it’s only for a couple of weeks and you can fly out on the 27th after putting in a Christmas performance!
....and work might not let me – they are down to the bare bones as it is and then I turn up and tell them I’m chipping off again
tell them you already booked it before they gave you the UK job.... it’s a golden opportunity to dictate when you want your holidays, rather than fitting around everyone else! if you ask they’ll say no! don’t ask!
.....and new years in UK won’t be so bad, will it?
Yes it will – it always is – remember last year? Drunken arguments with strangers, too wasted too early or not wasted enough too late, bad live music, over crowded pubs, waits for the bar that go on for hours, beer in plastic cups, trying to be in too many places with too many people and never really being anywhere with anyone properly, watching the girl kiss someone else...
....Every single year god damn it..
Yes! every single year you fuckgubbin!
....but wait! I’m going to Kuda Laut with the missus this weekend - it’s just like Phuket beach! I live in a place offering the same kind of delights as Thailand already!
Yeah but you don’t live like you’ll live during these two possibly blessed weeks of golden promise
...That’s true....
It will be a truly legendary
...That is also true...
Heroic dose’s of Samsong Whisky.... women in string bikini’s
...Oh Samsong! how I miss thee so....and women in string bikini’s is how nature intended I’m sure...
and you are on the cusp of getting into the rat race and will probably have far more responsibilities this time next year
..Yeah, on the cusp… well that’s the plan I guess....
you won’t ever really be in a better position to do the “disappear to Thailand and do Bangkok properly with all your friends at a New Years full moon Phuket debaucherised mayhem shindig” thing
..surely I will? Surely there will be a better time? When things are more organized? more settled? more sensible?
NO! – it will never be sensible, it will always be too expensive, it will always be tricky getting time off around Christmas, your family will always want you to spend the holidays with them, your friends won’t always be able to get together like this and you will have more responsibility a year from now – remember the whole being 28, get in a relationship, buy a house, go to the gym, try harder at career, stop drinking and gambling so much thing?
Yes you are right
I’m always right – you know why?
Why?
Because I am you and you just talked yourself into going to Thailand for New years
I did?
You did
Moses’ Goat Crikey!
I even booked the ticket for you while you were typing this
You did!?
Yes I did
By the Bells of St.Christopher! Right then! – lets take my Tyler-Durden-schizophrenic-monkey-ass to Thailand, get sun burnt drunk on Samsong watching women who might be men do shocking things in bars, get oil massages from Miss worlds, eat strange creatures and only sleep when unconscious after dancing on beaches all night!
Yes lets do that
Yes lets
