New thread.  It might be Monday but it seems appropriate that we should have a new one for the new week.

Actually did you know that today was Internation Laughter Day?  I was watching the Weather channel of all things and they mentioned that.  Unfortunately the joke they told wasn’t that good so I didn’t laugh too much.

Hello my littlesongbirds!

Awful good weekend. Went for a drink with this girl I met at that party a few weeks back. It was the 3rd rearrangement of this date. Sadly she only stayed for one beer, under an hour. I was livid.

I’d went and cleaned the bloody flat so I could take her back here (a moot point since my bastarding flatmate threw a God-damn party) and she leaves! So I go home and the party is as lively as the Pope’s bedroom. Evedyone’s left, and made no mess, so it’s me in my immaculate flat. And I get the text. The girl didn’t go home. After I left her at her work (a nearby bar, where she had to pick her uniform up) her colleagues dragged her to a club, and she was sorry our date was so brief would I still like to meet her? Daft question. Got her back round chez moi for a few beers, Cava and Family Guy. And it was a very fun night.

Tonight, hjwever, there was this amazing girl in, perfect 10, wearing a corset and miniskirt with a guy who was, let’s be frank, nowhere near handsome enough to merit a lassie like her. Even my manager said so, and he’s in a damn committed relationship. But he still would though, eh? She seemed pretty touched that I told her she looked 20 (it was her 22nd birthday) and was eyeing me all night. At the end, when her man was in the lavvy, she told me it was the best compliment she’d ever been paid and that I was gorgeous.

Pinnacle of my romantic life right there.

I asked her if the guy was her boyfriend, and she told me he was, but not really. So I asked if there was hope for a man like me and there was, am I working tomorrow? In point of fact I’m not but for her I’ll show up, and I told her so. Damn rookie mistake, didn’t get her number just in casa, but I was a bit thunderstruck to tell the truth (if you saw her you’d see why). Didn’t even get her name- don’t know what was wrong with me! I don’t know if she will be there but in vino veritas; at least I know she wasn’t lying when she said she fancied me. That alone has me walking on air.

Would it be morally reprehensible for me to meet her tomorrow? I think not. I’m not in anything committed, and I won’t see the bird from the party until the exams are done. So I’ll take the chance, and here’s to luck!

But is that May 4th or May 5th?  (Best I can find in the first few hits from a Google search is a French festival running May 3-8 or something like that.  I don’t feel like going back and looking it up again.)

Sounds great, Renquist.  I say go ahead and show up.  If she does, too, so much the better!  Nothing wrong with that. smile

Rock and roll. Worst case scenario is I know a stone cold fox in a corset and f***ing miniskirt thought I was ‘gorgeous’. And that’s a damn good worst case.

Well, it’s a beautiful and sunny day Bank Holiday here. We slept in, went for a picnic on the banks of the loch in our local wildlife reserve… ok, now we’re heading off to do recycling, but at least we get to hang out together.

Is it wrong to bring your shiatsu chair massager to work?  I hope not.

My legs hate me. Not as much as they hate Boo, though…
