Weekends

Last weekend, Susan borrows a top off her sister and goes out with some money borrowed from Lisa.
   Susan leaves the club, borrowing the bloke Emma has already snogged.
   After what had happed the week before, and the weekend before that, Susan didn't feel so bad. She needed some happiness, even it were borrowed.

Two weekends ago, Susan was set to meet a new man. A new man, as in a sensitive man. A new man, as in someone new, not from the usual crowd. She met him in some new bar in town.
   As they sat across aside from each other in a minimal stylish fusion cuisine restaurant he seemed too interested in his newly found ideas and ideologies to pay attention to her desirous state.

Three weeks ago, Susan was out at the same old places. Old crowd. Same old conversations. She spots an old'ish looking guy in Bar 38. She catches his eye, he catches hers. Nice suit.
   Before she can do anything her ex came across to talk with her. Trying to get that same old sex with that same old charm. The older man left and she was left with the old boyfriend.

This weekend, Susan is making it up to Emma, after what happened the weekend previous.
   They've opened a bottle and are watching a porno movie, having a laugh – her dad still calls then blueys.
   She's feeling sorry for herself. People from a certain place and time period would say she feels blue. Emma always cheers her up.
   Half watching the film they talking about the last 3 weekends.
   Next week they will talk about the last 4 weekends.
   “More Blue Nun, girlfriend?”
