Life: An Awesome Week

I love weeks where lunches are with friends everyday, seeing people you love each night and watching a friend from work playing dress up in my dresses to wear a something special to a cocktail party... Finally watching that ever so popular movie Twilight and exchanging quizzical looks - Vampires cannot go out in the sun!

A sensational dinner at Bilsons, Sydney's number one restaurant of 2009 a 5 course degustation with matching wine with fabulous people from work...

Dinner and interesting conversation with a great friend, the hours at the little Indian joint just flew by, he intentionally walks on the 'outside' of the street - a gentleman,

Flooded with texts & emails from the gorgeous R, emails during work hours, texts at whatever hours of the morning, then there was that one that came through 'I think we got off on the wrong foot'... What does all this mean?

Watching How To Act Around Cops an entertaining play and I actually enjoying it, laughing inappropriately when one character gets killed - I was the only one that laughed!

Serendipitously bumping into friends at the piano bar after the play, one drink turned into many...

Drinking 2 wines at an impromptu lunch at work today and feeling tipsy - giggling at colleagues comments, inappropriately, again.

- it’s not the weekend!

Life: 'You Should Be More Yourself'

Funny when your flat mate makes the remark that I should have been 'more myself' with The American I was dating...

Well, I lent him a DVD when we were dating and I wanted it back - I refuse to be out of pocket (or alike) at the end of a relationship, so I asked for it - The American asked for my address to post it to me. Taking on my recent advice from the roomie:

Me: My work address is below, so much for ‘friends’.

Him: I hope we can be friends. I’m happy to drop the DVD off sometime. Actually, I coming up the north side Sunday afternoon, if you’re around?

* he didn't come around - he posted it to me at work weeks later

Life: I think he likes you - he wants to kiss you - he wants to date you!

That's what my dear friend said to me today when I told her about this message:

I feel like I didn’t get to spend much time with you today. Perhaps we could have lunch alone next time (or do dinner/movie)? Maybe I’m just being selfish and wanted to hog you all to myself

Life: A Story...

I was sitting out in the courtyard just outside from where I’m doing my course, my work colleague and I were talking about parents and odd relationships we have. Well, her girlfriend received a phone call from her father in tears saying his wife (her mother) has left him for the man that lives 3 buses down in the caravan park and they moved to another caravan park together.

Life: Saving a Picture

"Ctrl S" who would've thought 2 keys would be so melancholy. I was tagged in a photo in Facebook and with many of the pictures I save them to my computer just in case they go missing - this one was of me and S, now to be known as The American. I wasn't saving a picture of 'us', come on I'm a little more balanced than that (I think), it's that I saved the photo into the file 'miscellaneous'. Sad that a few months with a person can now be considered in my mind and on my computer as not belonging anywhere.

Life: I Love My Friends Part ....

Sometimes I can not express myself the way I want to so I succumb to silence or let the words of others promote the emotions instilled within:

Oh sweetheart! I know how you feel – we all go through that – and ending something is always hard. Take your time in mourning and don’t feel bad about it. Take as long as you want.

Your past is your past. It does not in any way determine your future – your past relationships were experiences – not failures and do not determine that is it for you! That is just nonsense!

Maybe its too early for you now – but you need to think this; “I didn’t have that because there is something SO much better out there for me!”. I know you are a science freak but I really believe in powers of universe, life, & spiritual growth. There is always always something better and never ever give up that thought. You will not be alone forever! Maybe its just that you are actually not ready – maybe there is a lesson you are not learning about yourself or maybe you are not focusing on what you really want – or maybe you need to be more like the person you want to attract???

My point is that the way you are feeling has nothing to do with this particular guy or any of your past relationships – its about YOU! This is about you.

So true... I should remind myself of her words constantly
