Co-incidence???


Isn't it strange how, just when you're thinking so much about someone, they ring you unexpectedly???

Not so strange really in this case though I 'spose 'cos I hadn't heard his voice for a few days due to work commitments...

Was feeling really low after a busy weekend with the girls trying to distract me from missing him so much, and just texting him when he rang :)

I burst into tears and I think he was a little shocked for a brief moment, but then I explained why, and he was fine with it.

That's the trouble with him being back here but 5 hours drive away...so near, yet so far :(

In a lot of ways it's far harder being appart when he's so much closer geographically...

Not to worry, I'm sure we'll sort something out soon 'cos we both don't like the distance between us:)

I'm In Love :)

And this one should have posted Wednesday 18th May...

Part of an e-mail dated 24th November, 2004...
...wish I was there to hold you close. I just want to make you happy...

Says it all really, doesn't it :)

Those words came true for both of us yesterday.

After a long wait of almost 7 months we finally got together for probably the sweetest time of my life (except the birth of my daughter, of course) and, I hope his too...

Is very early days yet, but, who knows, stranger things happen all over the world in every moment.

People meet by chance, fall in love and choose to spend the rest of their lives together.

Almost 7 months ago I was given the chance to get to know one of the nicest guys I could ever wish to meet...He's everything I want in a guy, tall, very good looking, intelligent, kind, loving, but most important of all, he wants me 'cos I'm me :)

Argh!!!!

I'm posting late as usual at the mo...sorry...this entry should have been posted Friday 13th May...

Frustrated??? Ummm...yep!!!

I got to wait 4 days to see him :(

Am spending about 50% of my time 'floating' round with a silly grin and the rest frowning and moping:(

Nevermind, 'all good things...' as they say (should bloody hurry up, if you ask me!)

'Spose it's got to be as bad for him though.

I'll keep you posted...;)

The Blonde Effect...

Ummm...

After years of research by some of the most intelligent minds on the planet (and a few moments silly thought in my kitchen while making coffee) I have come to the conclusion that this may be a very serious problem...lol...

I'm a natural strawberry blonde, but over the last few years I have been having blonde highlights. Not many to begin with, so the problem wasn't really noticeable. But recently I've had quite a few so my hair looks much blonder.

And guess what? I'm exhibiting all the symptoms of being a blonde...OMG!!!

Odd Socks...

This subject popped into my head while chatting with Kevin Orr on friday 6th may, 2005...

Where do all the odd socks go???

Does the washer or tumble eat them???

What about all the other things/thoughts/etc. that go 'missing'???

The simple act of sorting clean laundry and finding that yet again I had an odd sock set in motion a chain of thought...lol...

Kev also mentioned some new fangled washing machine that cost an obscene amount of money but the 'generous' manufacturers were giving free socks away with it...

You know why don't you??? Is simple, the machine manufacturers know that the secret diet of these 'evil' machines is socks...pmsl

Another of life's eternal and never answered mysteries is lost/missing pens...Where do all the lost pens end up??? Only a small percentage can be accounted for by theft, so what about the millions of others that go missing everyday all over the world???

:)

hehe...

What can I say????

Not a lot really, that'd be indescrete ;)

At the moment I think the best and most tactful way to put it is that if you know me personally, I apologise most sincerely for walking round grinning like an idiot and not paying much attention to anything at all :)

Will keep you all posted and thanks to those of you who've been so supportive these last months...I wouldn't have got through it without you :)

Flight of Fancy Update...

OMG!!!! He just rang!!!!

A Bit of a Let Down???

After the verdict on Friday the rest of that day was sureal...

Had a really good night out with a group of mates in Cardiff and I seemed to be rather popular with a large number of guys...lol...Must have been my good mood showing :)

Spent a very quiet day yesterday cos was very tired from very little sleep Friday night, went back to a mates to continue partying :)

After a great night's sleep I'm now sitting here with rather too much energy and not much use to put it too. I didn't want to tempt fate by making any arrangements for this weekend incase anything went wrong on Friday or the jury didnt make a decision til after the weekend...

Not to worry, I'm sure I can find something to do later ;)
One good thing to come out of all this though is that I've decided to finally go back to Uni to get my degree :)

NOT GUILTY!!!

Not guilty...Aquitted...Innocent...The actual victim...

My faith in the British justice system has not been restored...Far from it.

But, yesterday, a judge in the Crown Court went some way to making amends for the absolute farce I have had to endure over the last 5 months...

He directed the jury in a fair manner to deliver the only verdict possible in this travesty brought upon me...

As I have, on numerous occasoins said, if it all wasn't so serious it would have been hysterical...And I can tell you I wasn't laughing...

I'm not even now.

I'm exhausted, relieved and still very disturbed by what has happened, but at least common sense prevailed.

And it took less than an hour for it to be put somewhere in the direction of right!!!

People...hmmm...

The good ones give so much and the bad ones take it...:(

I aint got anymore, so go look elsewhere...

But, before you do, take a moment to reflect on the people who you have used, abused and walked over, hurt and taken thier hopes from, cos, one day, you will be there and you'll know how it feels.

Sexy Irish Guys...Yumm...

They came...

We conquered...

They took your women!!!

'Spose some things don't change about a visit from the Irish...lol...

Can a Grand Slam and Triple Crown victory, as well as breaking our jinx for beating the Irish in Cardiff compensate truly for the 'carnage' that was to follow guys?

Ummm...for the female population it was an added bonus...:)

If you weren't in Cardiff last Saturday night then you can only imagine what happened post slaughter...

Take an already vibrant city filled to overflowing with Welsh and Irish rugby supporters...Add an air of exilleration, good Spring weather, plenty of booze, charming Irish guys and pissed-off Welsh females (taking into account the fact that the male/female ratio made it a very favourable environment for us girlies:) and you get...Lurve:)

Oh yes:)

All over and in every bar/club/pub in the city the sexy Irish were secretly having thier revenge and 'lovin it'!!!

I'm not saying anymore on the subject except congrats to our triumphant rugby team...Well done lads you worked hard and deserved it.Thank f**k you finally managed to get it together cos I've been considering just supporting my other team, Australia...and when are the Irish guys coming back...;)

Smile... :)

A smile can go a very long way and say so much...

It can make you feel loved, all cuddly warm inside, special, wanted, needed, and sooo many more things...

And if you're very lucky, a smile can make you feel all of those things and so much more:)

A certain person makes me feel that way and I feel very priveliged to know him, for our lives to have touched and for us to have become so close...:)

Apologies...

I have been very busy over the last few months and only posting to my AOL journal...But I'm catching up now and the following are a selection... :)
