Today

[dalekboy]

Woke up at 6, wrote and got latest story up, faffed around and did a small amount of stuff, then went off to meet up with oothoona. We had decided to get together and have a yak, and today was the day.

I don't write about everyone I meet up with, but Oothoona is an exceptional person. Clever, funny, compassionate, thoughtful and gorgeous. Met up at 2 and was expecting to talk for an hour or two, given I was feeling tired - we finished up the chat at around 6:30-ish. Could easily have chatted the night away, very easy to talk to.

Had a party to go to tonight, but I'm a wee bit tired, it's bucketing down, and most importantly, the wiper that got replaced recently jammed on the way home. I was able to unjam it, but don't fancy driving the car in the rain until I've had a look to see if I can fix it or bodge something up. Would actually like to go to the party, though I'd probably only last an hour before I wanted to crash, but buggered driver's side wiper + heavy rain = no go.

But, had a fantastic afternoon with someone I would love to chat to and hang with lots more. Yay!

I don't eat lollies that often (a bag of snakes I bought in August and took with me on the birthday trip has yet to be opened) but it just so happens that that morning I had opened my Santa Sack and hoed into a handful of the toffees, so that may have been a contributing factor :)

I so should work in an 1800s sweet shop, complete in striped shirt, bow tie, and massive handlebar moustache :)

As to compliments, I offer them when I feel them, because you never know if you'll ever have the chance to do so again. And I've trained myself to be better at accepting them, rather than doing the automatic "No I'm not" reaction that is actually incredibly rude and impolite to the giver of the compliment.

Though I do still go all shy sometimes :)

*claps hands*

Oh, you so have to come back as an 1800's sweet shop owner in your next life!
