Bushed, Carp and Quandries

January 30th, 2007 Posted in Irritants, Quest for Fitness

For some reason I was very down today (it’s a mystery why, isn’t it?) but was heartened by the offers of sympathetic ears (Ferny the Goth and Nice Married Lady).

NML, in fact, was keen for us to go out for a coffee “or something” when she’s next down at my orifice (in the middle of February). That’s something to look forwards to, then.

I hatched a cunning plan. I’d go home, give Darling Stepson a call to say I’d received his message but was just rushing out, so could I get back to him later in the week.

It worked, disarming him rather. Seems he’s viewing a house on Thursday evening, hence the renewed interest in his inheritance (sic). I have 48 hours to plan the next stage then. I wonder how he’ll take the news that I’ve blown his inheritance (sic) on the WTB? :-)

Having calmed down the little shit I decided that I really was rushing out. I grabbed the sports bag and set off for the gym. My word, that was hard work. I did about a quarter of the recommended workout (I’ll build up to it over time) and then hit the pool for a few lengths just to unwind.

Thanks for the comments and advice about MG3. The issue, however, is that I didn’t get any beachboyesque good vibrations from our shopping trip cum first date. She’s a nice enough lady (albeit mad), but there just wasn’t the frisson of whatever. As I see things it’s a matter of balance. I’m balancing the wish not to raise MG3’s hopes unfairly against the possibility that said frisson is merely delayed and may appear on a non-shopping rendezvous.

Is it me or is this getting bloody complicated?

    Oh dear, it’s getting bloody complicated. In my experience, frissons can’t be manufactured too easily, and if they’re not there to start with … But then I’m very shallow and frissons have to hit me squarely between the eyes in the first five minutes or else I miss them forever!

    A non-shopping rendezvous may well unleash the frisson though. I say give it one more shot - now, off into the breach you go again! And good luck :-D

    Maybe you will end up with a good friend out of this, if not the love of your life. You never know where that could lead, she may introduce you to friends of hers that may be suitable.

    I say, don’t be too hasty to make judgement. ;o)
