Last night (112.365)

It’s late, past midnight, but we’re still out. Sitting in my car, my head on his shoulder, his arms round me, absent mindedly stroking my back and shoulders.
I look up at him and smile. He looks back, his eyes searching my face. It’s not until you get close up that you realise how dark his [...]

Unplanned – (106.365)

Of all the plausible things in the world to happen right now, this is probably the least expected.
A flirtation with the guy who plays the cornet in my charity band.
He was a miserable sod, and I thought he was antisocial and a bit weird.
Yet a kind message on my birthday, and an offhand comment (not [...]

(103.365)

I met up with friends today. Oddly enough. That’s what I’ve been doing pretty much constantly for the past week, hence my silence on this Blog, but this was different. These were the girls who had gone to Uni and had, with or without meaning to, left me behind. Sarah, Sarah, and Sophie.
I know I’ve [...]

Surprise (99/100.365)

I just checked the clock and its past midnight.
It’s my birthday.
I’m 19.
Whoo!

It’s over… (95.365)

Remember that programme I wrote about a few weeks ago? Who Wants To Be A Superhero?
It ended yesterday. I watched the final today.
And I was/am quite sad that it’s over. There honestly was/is little like it on television.

Sea of love – (94.365)

Come with me, my love.
To the sea.
The sea of love.
I want to tell you
how much
I love you.
Do you remember
When we met
That’s the day
I knew you were my pet
I wanna tell you
how much
I love you
Break:
Come with me
To the sea
…of lo-ve
Do you remember
When we met
That’s the day
I knew you were my pet
I wanna tell you
How much
I love [...]

Realisation – (93.365)

Okay. Let me try and explain the flash of inspiration I had this afternoon.
People rarely want what they say they want from relationships.
The boys (and Nicole) at work all say they’d love a girl who could play games with them. Yet none of their girlfriends play games, and the girls who they meet that DO [...]

Stop and smell the flowers – 92.365

Originally uploaded by Jimsy Jampots

I love flowers. I love love love love them. One day, I’ll take a photo of the various fake flowers I have collected that I pin to my clothes or in my hair. For today, you get just a small selection of them. My favourite [...]

Showbiz (91.365)

It is the truth universally acknowledged that Primary School plays are always total shite, and should be avoided unless your own flesh and blood is standing up there with so much make-up on they look like a miniature drag queen, waving their arms around in time to “Go Go Go Joseph” with a sparkly beach [...]
