I hadn’t realised just how long it has been since I last wrote. I’d like to say a lot has happened but it hasn’t really. I saw a bit of Mr System over Christmas, mainly from the fact we have the same social areas and friends, no planned meetings. I’ve actually come to realise that he really is a distorted person. In the sense that even his best friend couldn’t understand what happened, apparently he went from talking about me a lot to not talking about me at all. I’ve still got a bruised ego on the fact that he made all the right noises then dropped me without warning, but now I’m more aware that he has his own issues that even his friends don’t understand so it would be pointless for me to even try.

On the man front there is still no further advancement. I’ve not really met anyone who is potentially anything, generally, if I’m honest its because they don’t show a great deal of interest in me, not really great grounds to form anything on!
There has been a guy who asked for my number in a bar one Sunday night who then turned out to have given me a fake name and a fake job. Told me he worked away on oil lines in Africa when it turns out we have a mutual friend who told me his is actually a policeman. Not quite the same thing!
I’ve also met a guy a few weeks ago, just met him in a bar, he lives in a city about an hour away from me, but this one is at least replying to my messages! Takes him a while to but its more than I’ve had off anyone for a while. He’s already asked if I would like to meet him for a drink when we are both in the same city, which considering he works around the county, it may not be in the too distant future! If not I may just organise a visit to his city…
Last weekend I had a good snog with a friend. He’s only a friend in the fact that we go round the same bars and we have mutual friends, seriously hot though. He’s a PE teacher. Nice guy as well as being incredibly sexy, he’s in his thirties so older than the guys in the 20s that I would normally date but he has totally got the man thing going on. Men in their 20s still don’t look like men, they have a bit of a boy thing still going on and they don’t fill out across their shoulders properly.
Gerard Butler, now there’s a man that has matured VERY well…

So, I still hate my job but now it bothers me less. Today I have been with the company for 3 years and I’m smiling to myself knowing that I won’t be here for the next anniversary. Unless I meet the man of my dreams, (which, lets face it, is going to remain a dream) I shall be running off to Asia to go travelling. I’m thinking either New Zealand or go to Asia itself and teach English. As long as I’m out the country and away from this job I don’t really mind!
I’m also a little happier than I have been over the past few months, I’ve been dieting, I’ve rediscovered a love for Weetabix with butter on so I’m using that for most meals and as its kinda sweet it is solving my chocolate cravings. Lovely! Only been at it 2 weeks and I can already tell the difference. My friends have commented too, as have a few clients.
Obviously keeps a smile on a girls face :D

Oh and just to add a little more happiness to my life, I got tickets to go see Michael Jackson. I know he creates a lot of controversy but I was brought up on his music and I’ve loved him for as long as I can remember. If I succumb to the worry that he’s not well enough to perform so I shouldn’t waste my money on the risk then I’ll regret it forever. This way I have something to look forward to that I already have the tickets for.
Anway, hope my catch up hasn’t bored anyone too much! Hope you are all well and I’ll try to pop back very soon x
