I have got a good job,
and I am working in the city,
get the tube train at 8 o'clock and five,
and I really don't know if I'm dead or alive.

OK, the operation went well (if a lot later than originally expected).
Just got back from visiting her. Man, that was pretty weird. She seemed pleased to see me and recognised me, which is a plus, at times the conversation drifted into the land of make-believe but on the whole it was OK. She moaned copiously like she always does but admitedly the third rate...

Sounds good. Sometimes those afters are all that is important

Good to hear it went well and that you had a good chat to her! Good job on the biscuits too - hospital food ain't edible.

Her operation didn't happen "first thing" as initially thought. In fact as of about 1 o'clock still no go.

I waiting on a call from my old man as he said he'd update me. He was going to the hospital to explain it to my nan, about the delay etc.

I guess no news is good news, or something like that.

Thank you so much for your comment on my set!!

So it's been pretty fucked up today.
I get a call about 11am from my mother. She tells me my Nan had a fall and was on her way to the hospital in an ambulance closely followed by my granddad and my folks. That's quite a bit to take in after only being awake 10 minutes. I asked her if I should go to the...

Hey man - hope the operation goes well...

As for Boston - I love it. I've been here for almost 20 years - moved here right out of college. I'm in it for the long haul smile I'm not a big Bruins fan, but maybe someday if they get good I'll start following them. I was at the Celtics game last night - they stink, but luckily they were playig the Trailblazers and they're even worse haha

London is one of my favorite cities as well - been there twice - last time was last April. Unfortunately the dollar was worth about a half a pound back then, so it was verrry expensive for us. A small lunch cost us like $96... it was crazy!
sadistic_glee:

Also she's slowly been losing her marbles and the last couple of times Ive been to see her she hasn't recognised me. It's hard because it's almost like she's a different person to the one I grew up with.

I lost a grandfather in a similar manner. Well, at the time I believed he was my grandfather. It was some 4 and half years ago, and was a shitty thing. He had tried so hard to teach me so much over my life, yet he didn't recognise me. It wasn't until a year or so after he passed away that I came to learn that he wasn't my grandfather, but more like a step-grandfather. Another six months down the track I learn that he is not only of no relation, but that his whole past is completely questionable...

Anyhow, this is not about my personal story, and it's all memories (mostly sad ones). To this day I still struggle to get my head around it all. You are fortunate that your Nan is still alive, and though she may not recognise you consciously, everything you say still reaches the heart. Don't hate yourself for not being overly emotional now. Make sure you get anything you need to say said, especially apologies (something I've personally never been good at). It'll all be good and you'll feel better about it. And I'm sure some love will help your Nan heal too.

Living in a bedsit,
Riding on a tube train,
Working all day long,
And you know no one,
so you don't go out,
and you sit at home
and watch television



That's been running through my head all day! (Solitary Confinement - The Members)

All came from sitting on a tube waiting for it to move, somewhere between Earl's Court and High Street Kensington. It...

Cheers.

I was in London a couple of months ago, and the thing that struck me as so bizzarre was the tubes. Like, they are so crammed, and you're right up on top of these strangers, almost indecently, and nobody says a word, or makes any eye contact. Like, here, if you're squished up on top of someone you either apologize, adn joke about it, or you hope to be getting some. But not there.

Odd.

A couple of months ago i was getting these messed up emails about how to be a good muslim, which involved being a good wife. Hmmm, imagine me a good obediant little wife, ha.

I just noticed in your profile, where, in the rudey bit, it says you're still with you're girlfriend from when you were 16, awwwww. Tell me about her. That is so amazing.
silveronthetree:
Mate, you gotta be relaxed and look for a bit of a chat in London I reckon. it can be really unfriendly, but with good pockets of nice here and there.

I noticed when I studied up North that everyone was seemingly friendlier. But you can get a bit in London too if you`re open to it and haven`t got your, `I`m busy keep the fuck away from me` face on.

Personally I like the anonimity. biggrin

I want my SG peeps to know that...well...i'm not in the same sorta place i was yesterday...kinda like 24 hour misery.
It's a long long story but after a long talk both last night and tonight, and a few tears from both parties, things seem to be back on track. I no longer feel as confused as i did and i know what i want...

I think its great you and your girl have stayed together and she was your first.

A word of advice.

At some point when things aren`t great you may think you`d like to sample some other girl cause you`ve not experienced that.

Take my advice, you`re missing absolutely nothing!

Now is that smoke as in fags or something stronger?

On the moods thing, its a little known fact, blokes have a 3 mounthly cycle. Hormones don`t only effect women smile
silveronthetree:
And I`d like to here more of you woe, I wouldn`t find it boring.

Aren`t we all here to share ?

So share

That's no pigeon. Or a dog. It's a caravan. Easy mistake to make. People use these caravans to fly places. They get in, like an aeroplane, but they're for poor people, and everyone has to take a shrinking tablet. And those things that look like eyes are actually windows that the pilot sees out of.

I'm sure now you see how the mistake was made.

What you doing wrong?
daisy:
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, you made me giggle. Every time you make a girl giggle holy god is happy, and awards you with biscuits. Well done.

Cornwall.... biggrin
