Attack of the Drunken Onion Ring




It's official. My three weeks of peace and bliss are over. During a casual dinner party comprising of Madam Wong, GK and moi the Onion Ring stumbled back in from her holiday. She was beyond trolleyed. Apparently she had spent seven hours in an airport on her own and decided that drinking her way through it would be her best option. Dear Lord. So she crashed my dinner conversation and took over trying to regale us with stories of her holiday. The only bit I could understand was that her room in Milan had a massive LCD tv mounted on the wall. Classic Onion Ring. She would walk away angry with us if we didn't look interested enough. However, Madam Wong was lovely enough to show some interest and tried to interact with whatever it was she was talking about. This was met with contempt, utter rudeness and a proper telling off. Poor Madam Wong. Both GK and MW noticed that I went totally white and looked like I was going to cry as she kept stumbling round the house nattering on and crashing on our little party.

After about twenty minutes she went to the shop for "butter and eggs". She went straight back into her room and all we could hear was the clanging of wine bottles. MW left and GK and I got ready for bed after cleaning up. After I was starting off to sleep GK texted me that she was struggling to get Onion Ring to get off the pull out couch watching tv so she could get some sleep! The poor thing! Then she yelled at GK for having the handset for the phone. I should mention here that she had stumbled through our little party and taken it to her room earlier.

As we speak she is sitting in my living room making it smell like stale pickles playing on her laptop. She's still unemployed, she's still late with her rent and she's still an out of control alcoholic. GK has a job interview tomorrow. I so want her to hurry up and get a job so that I can give the Onion Ring her notice! Clearly all plans to sell the flat are on hold for the moment. There is no way anyone would make an offer on the place as long as she's there. Keep everything crossed for us!

Nocturnal stumblings of the OR mean that both Gemma and I have had very little sleep. The dark circles under my eyes are making me look older than I need to. Drats.

Wardrobe Summary: Black bow detail pumps, black opaque tights, bottle green knee high skirt with over sized button detail and a little sparkle, black loopy top. Hair: blow dried and straightened. Make Up: Nars Emotional Rescue palette.

PS: The RSW is back in town. I am almost ready to give him back the SoH status. All RSW behaviour is practically forgotten. Bliss.
