I know it's been ages since I last wrote anything here but the time has gone so fast! my life as been turned upside down. So here's the update: my bf was deported back to chicago which he hated! I've been trying to work out what that means for 'us', I quit my job, I started a new job (which I didn't have til after I left my old one), I'm now one of ( Read more... )

He leaves. He's being deported on Tuesday. Sure, I didn't know if I still wanted to go out with him but I certainly didn't want him to go. I will miss him so much. This is not how I wanted this to end. He made an honest mistake, got the dates messed up in his passport and over-stayed his visa by 3 days. Just 3 days and they're deporting him. It ( Read more... )

I'M GOING ON FRIGGIN HOLIDAY!!!!! For 8 whole days I will not be anywhere near this office - I won't even be in the same state. And whats more ... I'll be in the desert where I can see real stars and gazillions of them. Oh, I can't wait! We're gonna go camping and hang out and drink red wine and talk shit just like old times. yay me ( Read more... )

A strange kind of calm has settled on me. I can't explain it, I don't think I did anything to induce it. It just is. It would be disconcerting - if I weren't so calm. My head is usually so noisy, conflict rages constantly but now... it's quiet in my head. It's so unusual. I'm enjoying the peace. I hope it lasts a while longer ( Read more... )

I am running out of time fast cos I want to go this saturday. It's not like I was disorganised, I was working this out about 3 weeks ago and now it's all turning to custard!!!!!! Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit!!

I feel homesick for a place I've never been....

"The heart of consumerism" is what I said but what if it's the heart of addiction instead? What if all these things that we just accept, all the little habits and expectations that we have, are actually addictions. Indescrimanantly wanting something that may or may not be good for us but it's there and we're used to it so we want it. We're expected ( Read more... )

So Brad and Jen broke up and the western world speaks of them as if they were dear family friends. I didn't even know who they were til a couple of years ago and I'm not much interested in knowing. I'm certainly not a person who keeps up with all the celebrity gossip or buys the glossy so-called 'womens' magazines but I fear that I am so entrenched ( Read more... )
