Silent G.O.D.S *

August 11, 2004 by

Not a peep … A whole 5 days with no contact … Was it something I said?

Haven’t seen much of Not John since the date… Certainly no conversation but there has been the odd hello and smile… somewhat awkward but not unbearably so. He is by nature a shy boy and he did pointedly sit very near me when the opportunity arose this morning. This is uncharacteristic behaviour… What if he actually takes affirmative action in my direction… I have already established that I don’t fancy him…

Oh God this dating business is fraught…

Fingers Drumming on the Table (Actually the Keyboard)

August 10, 2004 by

Its 6.20pm and I am waiting for my baked potato to cook (Nostalgic nod to winter dinners in England – Baked tattie liberally doused with Heinz beans (the bacon kind – yum)… Wouldn’t normally cook it but have to confess there isn’t anything else in the house to eat…)

I “cleaned out” my Media Player today and got to thinking about what I listen to most… Thought you might like a look …

My current top 10 – but not necessarily listed in order of preference – more like order of remembrance…

1. Sting – Sacred Love
2. Miles Davis – Kind of Blue
3. Darlene Zschech – Kiss of Heaven
4. Nik Kershaw – To Be Frank
5. Nik Kershaw – 15 Minutes
6. Incognito – Positivity
7. Nichole Nordeman – Woven and Spun
8. Silverchair – Diorama
9. Dreamlab – Dreamlab
10. Parachute Band – Glorious

There are others but if I listed them it wouldn’t be the top ten now would it???

And so I got to thinking about books I like – Books being another thing that should be on July’s list of things I like… (which by the way has not netted a single googler… What’s that about????)

Anyway, Authors I like – again, a top ten…

1. Daniel Silva – (Spy Thrillers)
2. Janet Evanovich – (Comic Mysteries)
3. Jennifer Crusie – (Mysterious yet Romatic (and not a little saucy from time to time!))
4. Alexander McCall Smith – (Mysteries with an African flavour (refreshingly different))
5. Kathy Reichs (Scary as (and sometimes fully gross))
6. Elizabeth Enright (Harking back to Childhood – Nostalgic childish adventures)
7. Marion Keyes – (Irish Love, classically funny)
8. Sarah Donati (The full epic novel – drama, lurve, adventure, she’s got it all)
9. God – The Bible. (Action, Adventure, Love, Drama, Violence, Death, Life, Religion, Politics)
10. Diana Gabaldon (See Sarah Donati and add whimsy …)

I could go on… and on… and on…

But I won’t

Note to self: Be on the lookout for Wiblog Police lurking around corners hoping to catch bloggers blogging under the influence – must be wary of blogging with a Shiraz in my hand.

The New Job

August 9, 2004 by

In the interest of researching prospective alternatives to my current job as a Personal Assistant/Administrator I have been reading What Color is Your Parachute and doing all the exercises etc.

However, I came across this wonderful site that could totally change my life when I do decide to go elsewhere.

Apparently my dream job is to be a Spinster with cats.

I’ll start Monday …. (oops, thats today …. right, I’m off)

“Here Kitty, Kitty, Kitty.”

Funny Thing About the Change of Arrangements

August 9, 2004 by

Actually the reason I wanted to mention the room was the bed… (I know, I promise this is the last time I mention the bed … except to say first that I have clean sheets tonight and that such a pleasure should be number one on the list of Things I Like (see July))

Anyway, this bed story is more a study on human behaviour ok?

Good

In the room change of arrangement my bed is turned around 180 degrees. I am sure you’ll agree this is not a remarkable thing … However doing so has totally altered my sleeping behaviour.

With the bed in the old position I slept on my left side, with the bed in the new position I sleep on my right. I also now sleep on the total opposite side of the bed… Anyway, in both scenarios I am opting for sleeping on the edge of the bed closest to the door and on the side which sees me facing the door, almost as if I were making sure I was ready for a quick getaway, should such a need arise… I wonder what my subconscious is trying to tell me…

Has anyone else made similar findings in their experience? Or is this one more thing that makes me slightly off centre…
