Month: May 2005

Lazy days….

I had a day off work today.

Slept in till 10:30 am. Called a guy about doing a photoshoot for our club at a racetrack. Went out, looked at some shirts for the club, and had lunch with a beautiful girl.

Came home, watched the latest episode of Doctor Who and napped.

When I eventually got up, I just sent a few emails, bummed around on the computer and generally acted lazy.

So, this is the story of my day…

Life is good.

Elaboration

Well I suppose I should elaborate on that last post.

She told me she loved me… and I liked it. In fact, I said it back.

That’s not a normal thing for a relationship this young – even for someone as insecure and clingy as I am. Normally I would wait a lot longer. But it just feels… right.

I have a new job, a new girlfriend, and I’m poorer, yet happier than I’ve ever been. What a crazy mixed up world this is. Oh well…. let’s ramble about something else.

I just bought a new lawnmower today – a Victa Schappelle. It comes with 4kg of grass and has a 20 year warranty. Buy now and get a free boogie board!

OK, that was random – but it came in an SMS tonight, and I had to share it 🙂 Poor girl… maybe. Or maybe she’s a drug kingpin and deserved everything she got. If she’s guilty. Which I really have no idea about – but I definitely don’t think she’s squeaky clean, there are just way too many unanswered questions.

My hand hurts from being attacked by a crazy cat called Calais. I think he has a severe identity crisis – he’s just a kitten (maybe 6 months old) but he thinks he’s a fully grown lion. When he gets excited he loves to attack my hands and arms, biting and clawing them – he’s only playing but quite often hurts and occasionally draws blood!

He’s a gorgeous cat though. He just walked into a friends place one night (while we were all over there getting on the piss) about 6 weeks ago, and they’ve adopted him – I was over there tonight getting attacked some more. Surely I must have a masochistic streak….

Oh, here’s a picture of Calais the miniature lion – on second thoughts, I can’t bloody find one (there’s a couple floating about on the net but I need to find the links to them)…. might find it later. After sleep. 🙂

Another week draws to a close…

Wow, what a week it’s been.

Work has been hectic as anything. I now have a key to the store (after 3 weeks in the job) so they obviously feel that I’m trustworthy and doing well. Worked six days this week, got today and tomorrow off (well today’s almost gone, really).

I mentioned a girl in my last post – well I don’t want to elaborate too much – but things are going amazingly well. It was her birthday yesterday – we went bowling last night to celebrate with a whole bunch of folks from the Commodore club – got a goodish turnout considering it was only organised a day or so in advance. Then we stayed the night here and spent the day together, drove to Hobart and back.

She just told me in an SMS that she “more than likes me” – which has really blown me away. She is just so amazing – I can’t really explain it. We’ve been sort of dancing around each other for weeks – a little standoffish and inhibited, but when we kiss, it’s like there’s this incredible electricity between us – it’s different to other relationships I’ve had. Anyway… I can’t wait to see her again. There is a serious connection there which has happened very fast – even though it’s only been a couple of weeks, and we’re still in the honeymoon stages of our relationship.

We’re both getting very attached.

Again, it’s amazing how fast things can change.

All I need now is to come into a large sum of money! Maybe I should buy a lotto ticket, yeah….

Life.

Amazing how life can turn around really. One minute you can be wallowing in the deepest darkest depression and

the next you can be floating on a cloud of happiness where anything is possible. Right now, I’m somewhere in between the two, of course, but things have been relatively good the past few weeks – in stark contrast to a little over a month ago.

I’m not sure if it’s the Zoloft or the change in jobs or the fact that I’ve met a girl who seems to like me… or a

combination of all three. But things are okay.

I wish I had something more interesting to write about than my life. But what I will say is this – there are a small group of really wonderful friends who have been there for me when I needed them most. I won’t name them here (most of them would be completely unaware that this blog even exists) but over the next few weeks, I really, really need to do more to let them know how much I appreciate them.

I don’t know what else to say really… other than the fact that I’m just about DVD’d out. In the past 18 hours I have watched Anchorman,  National Treasure, Soul Plane, Ocean’s Twelve, as well as the entire first season of Black Books on DVD. I’m *cough* backing up *cough* the first four as we speak…

Anchorman was hilarious. National Treasure was quite OK for a Disney action flick. Soul Plane was funnyish, but I’ve definitely seen better black comedies (and I mean that in the racial sense, not the sense of humour sense). Ocean’s Twelve was a little disappointing in comparison to the original, but that may be because I wasn’t paying all that much attention during the movie due to the presence of a pretty girl in my lounge room! Black Books, well.. anyone who knows me knows what I think of that.

Anyway – didn’t really get enough sleep last night. Perhaps I should have a nap.

5 Months….

So much has happened

since I last wrote anything here….

  • I’ve broken the ute a few times
  • I’ve slept with a close friend’s ex-girlfriend. He still doesn’t know…
  • She fell head over heels for me, and got a bit obsessive. I cut off contact…
  • Work got worse, and I got pretty depressed….
  • I’m now medicated
  • I’ve quit my job
  • I’ve started a new job
  • I’ve met a girl.

Last night she kissed me….

That’s the short version….. where things go from here is anyone’s guess!
