this is why when I grow up I am living alone.
My roomie is out in 6 glorious weeks and to this I have very mixed emotions. I am used to a wee bit of socialization from time to time.
I do have my own furniture and the no mess thing will be a positive. i am clean when on my own.
Where would you go on holiday? What would you rather be doing?

not an award winning start to the year.
in my bid to be d.i.y efficient and sort out my house, i spent the day sanding down a flaky iron gate and fence outside of our house. nasty work, with lots of leaded paint so a trip to B&Q was needed for mask and paint stripping supplies. feeling efficient, i got a stool from inside the...

gutted about the broken window, sounds like you had the rug pulled from underneath your feet there! I know what you mean about couples being smug aswell, my best friend sort of ditched me on new years eve because she was with her lad. Never mind though, massive kudos on the johnathan creek box set 
_solipsist_:
jonathan creek?
what is that?
would it seem shallow if I suggested the heartache was from not being drunk often enough? I'm kidding. i know the feeling.

The Acorn: an excerpt from "Eat, Pray, Love" by Elizabeth Gilbert
"My thoughts turn to something I read once, something the Zen Buddhists believe. They say that an oak tree is brought into creation by two forces at the same time. Obviously, there is the acorn from which it all begins, the seed which holds all the promise and potential, which growns into the tree....

the fork in the road approaches once more.
there is a turning to the left and right, these roads are linked on a six month circuit that bring us back to this spot.
i can't go around the circuit again. i am weary of the scenery, the trips and scrapes. it's a beautiful walk, but i think we've seen all it has to offer.

Diary of a Church Mouse
Here among long-discarded cassocks,
Damp stools, and half-split open hassocks,
Here where the vicar never looks
I nibble through old service books.
Lean and alone I spend my days
Behind this Church of England baize.
I share my dark forgotten room
With two oil-lamps and half a broom.
The cleaner never bothers me,
So here I eat my frugal tea....

snuff out the candles,
silence the dog.
fasten the doors,
savour the dreg of wine.
gently lift the tonearm
-the silent void returns
in the still moonlight
the radiator heart beats.
cool bare soles upon
coarse wooden boards
padding meekly up the stairs.
how silent, how still
life seems without him.
how large a space,
how stern a house,
coveting master's return.
tender gentle ablusions,...

Friday night....at last.
A quiet one in this evening. Original plan had been to go to a gig night with a friend from home and flatmate 1. Friend has fallen ill. Flatmate 1 waited until 21:30 to see her boyfriend so didn't want to go out beforehand. Boyfriend arrived in grump and left at 22:00, thus rendering the evening pretty much wasted.
