It was bad enough that Gregory Spoonman had to work on a Saturday but it was worse that he fell asleep just 10 minutes into his favourite movie.
Arriving back to his humble Betoota Heights two-bedder around 4 this afternoon, the hard-working Virgo helped himself to a lungful of that sticky shit before he retired to the living room.
The Advocate’s sports editor Imran Gashkori, who also enjoys being Mr Spoonman’s flatmate, witnessed the whole incident unfold.
“So Greg’s come back from work, put his potato salad dinner in the microwave for 70 seconds – no more, no less – then waltzed into the laundry and packed himself a huge billy,”
“Now relaxed, he got himself a splade out of the draw and took his meal to the couch. I could tell by the look in his eye that tonight was a Shallow Hal night,”
“I wanted to watch the Wallabies but it looks like I’m going to be watching it at the pub. Or so I thought.”
Whether it be a combination of him just being super tired, full of potato salad or higher than Andrew Gaze’s combover but young Greg drifted off to sleep almost immediately.
“I threw a blanket over him, I’m going to the pub now.”
More to come.
