Happy Valentines Day! :O
Oh dear..Valentines Day. Never a worse day to forget. Must do something quickly before she gets home from work.
Luckily the other half hates Valentine's Day with a passion. I've been told I'm to avoid her all day, but after midnight when it's no longer Valentine's, I'm allowed to come over to her flat and go to bed.Quote:

Meh, she claims she doesn't care in the slightest about it. But I know, with a woman being a woman, it'll come back and bite me in the ass if I don't get her something.
The scariest words a woman can utter:
I'm fine
It's grand
Nothing
It's okay
Go on, meet your friends
and the one that means you'll end up lying in a bloody pulpy mess in the hallway as she washes her knuckles:
I don't care
I picked my other half up from the metro tonight and had dinner waiting. And a movie (Say Anything). She liked the spuds, chicken, gravy and veg, started to doze after 10minutes of the movie and went to bed. In a way it made the movie better :-)

I now hate Valentines day. I dumped a guy last year a few days before Valentines day to get back with a guy I had been seeing on and off for most of the year before then.
The boyfriend had decided he was ready to step up and be in a proper relationship so on this day last year he brought me lovely flowers and we started our proper relationship. Fast forward to this year and he finally text me at 7.30 this evening to say happy Valentines day and to see if I would call over for an hour after the football coz he had a card for me.
An hour of his time? Our anniversary and valentines and he gives me an hour and a card. No way José! Just dumped his sorry lazy ass.
Moral of the story.....make a fuss of your women on Valentines day even if that fuss is only a text saying you love her and cant wait to see her later. :-(
So Magicme is single...
How you doin'?

Not really. He wasn't willing to make an effort to spend our anniversary and valentines day together only offering me an hour of his time. If after a year together properly he cant make some effort he is not the man for me. And before you say it am not high maintenance. I wasn't expecting a fuss just to curl up on sofa with some wine and watch the football.
If you're going to ditch him it should be for his behaviour over the year. Not for a once off act of (maybe) selfishness when you have - clearly - got the painters in and aren't thinking straight... :)
Ha I don't have the painters in and its fairly typical of him to make no effort but I was willing to make enough for both of us but just worn out from it all and this was the straw that broke the camel's back. We had an issue on Sunday night and I spent the next 2 days suggesting we meet up and talk it through so we could move on but he just wanted to forget about it yet it was an issue that was a fundamental part of who I am. I needed some clarity from him on some of the issue so I could move on and let it go and he wasnt willing to do so.Quote:

Then didnt text me again until yesterday evening saying I could call over for an hour. We live 5 minutes away from each other and unless I suggest calling over for a cuppa during the week I only see him Fridays and Sundays in the pub and then back to his. Just fed up of feeling used and unappreciated. Thought that at least if we spent Valentines day together that we could maybe up the commitment levels a little but he is too lazy and laid back to make that effort so I just dont think he could be the person for me.
I think to break up over such a trivial issue is a great excuse to end something which wasn't working or going to work. At least that's what my other half tells me regularly!
Who knows if we get a chance to talk we might sort things but his reluctance to deal with issues is very hard to take. If we are together I want us to spend time together and be a bit more involved in each others lives. I don't think that is too much to ask of someone who claims to have bee. In love with me since the early 90's!
Oh and cocktails rock. Kill pain quickly.
They really do. They really do. Though usually they create a new pain the following day. And that awkward moment when you're trying to hoosh her out the door ASAP.Quote:

I can spot at least one of everyone here falling into one bracket. Intentionally or not.
Damn it, I was doing okay until I got down to 24. It's absolute nails-down-a-blackboard for me whenever someone pronounces the "n" at the end of Lyon!Quote:

It's only a first hurdle if you have those shirts to be "cool".Quote:

That makes me feel better. I'm not a hipster after all. I felt kind of bad for wearing a Newcastle jersey the other day.Quote:

I think it's just easier to say AVB. That's my excuse. But now I may reconsider.
Nothing, not a thing. Is there something wrong with me? Off The Ball I find annoying at times and at best boring. I don't like James Richardson as he was a rude twonk the few times I met him. Maybe I'm just not a football fan. Oh, but I guess I have one thing, a Dundalk FC shirt from 1984, it's a wee bit mouldy now, but still. Oh, and I despise Dortmund, them, Barcelona and Bayern. Cheats the lot of them!
Ooooooooooh.
I like OTB. And whilst Ken Early can be a git sometimes at least there's decent discussion on there.
Plus they have given me the funniest radio moment ever when Murph interviewed Jason Ryan last year during the Championship after a match and thanked him for coming. Still tickles my funny bone when I hear the clip. Radio Gold.
Edit: It was Sports Saturday/Sunday that that happened on.
I'm drinking normal coffee today.
You're like this forum's resident Jessie.

But I wear nicer clothes.
Like foreign football jersies.
Today was Bordeaux.
I'm drinking Tim Hortons coffee from a Toronto Maple Leafs Mug and have a Mr Big chocolate bar as well.
It's all going Canadian over here.
I seen a duck on the wall of a bridge on a canal I cross every day to get to college this morning, he looked at me, I looked at him(?), I was all like, ''da feck are you doing up on that wall duck?'' and all he had to say for himself was ''quack''. We parted ways, I'll probably never see that duck again..
I managed to get myself a bloody Fixed Penalty Notice for cycling on a pavement yesterday on my way to work. Admittedly, I was in the process of committing the offence (describing it as such makes it sound all very serious, but cycling on the footpath is indeed an offence) when a fairly rotund policewoman positioned herself between a phone box and a pizza parlour wall to block off my route and stop me. The police did appear to be out on watch to make examples of pavement-hogging cyclists like myself as there was another officer issuing what I assume was a similar notice to another cyclist across on the other side of the road.
I did feel it a bit harsh, however, as that specific section of Oxford Road in Manchester (Europe's busiest bus corridor apparently) doesn't actually have a cycle path. A cycle path is evident only further north and south, but not at that part - the most hectic part - just outside a university as connecting routes converge upon entry to the city centre, incredibly. It can be very dangerous with a constant stream of double-decker buses, taxis, lorries and cars breathing down your neck from behind and quite daunting having to weave in and out between them as they're both moving and stopped to pick up passengers. Anyway, the policewoman was having none of my attempts to extenuate myself and simply suggested I "stay safe". Which is kinda what I was doing on the pavement at the time...
So, I have three options:
- Pay a £30 fine.
- Attend what the issuing policewoman described in somewhat Orwellian terms as a "community re-education session" at a local fire station some evening between the 28th of February and the 7th of March; basically, they play a video on safe cycling for half an hour to a group of up to thirty "offenders" and waive the £30 fine/notice.
- Dispute the notice and elect a Magistrate's Court Hearing.
I think I'll go for the second.
Airstrip One is alive and well! ;)
