Well, been a while since I mentioned her. The thing that's brought her up again is my journey into work this morning.
On the drive in to work, I slowed down to give way to a car on the roundabout. As I drove off behind it I thought, "That car looks familiar". After a few seconds I realised it was my ex's.
Now, she used to live in a "village" the other side of the motorway from me, about 3.5 miles away. Now the direction she came from is from a fairly new development in the village I live in. Now I know one of her friends lives down there, and it may just be coincidence, but it really fucked me up for a bit.
The weird thing is that it's just gone the first anniversary of me being at this job, I haven't seen her for about 10 months now, and the last message from her (I sent a text wishing her a happy christmas) was basically "I thought we were getting on with our lives - fuck off".
Now, for those that have forgotten, we were together for 2½ years. Believe me, I am over her. It's just that as I'm still single, little thing like this remind me of that fact, and when I'm in need of company or a hug, she's the first thing that comes to mind. Familiarity and all that.
Ho hum, roll on Saturday night, and look out ladies, I'm on the prowl. :-)

Quick catch up……
Hokay, I've been meaning to do an update for a while, but keep forgetting. This will be a mixed bag.
Right, Dad came out of hospital on the 27th (parent's aniversary). Stayed round my parents for most of the week, then came home to give them some peace and quiet. On monday (3rd) he has another attack, and ended up back in hospital. They managed to make him comfortable quite quickly, as we managed to go and see him in casualty a lot earlier. I went to see him on Tuesday, and he was looking a lot better and feeling a bit silly for making a fuss, but they did notice something on his ECG. He's staying in till at least the 20th, as that's the earliest he can get an angiogram and they want to keep an eye on him till then.
I get back to work on Tuesday, and I find out that one of staff was on holiday in India when the tsunami hit, but she's ok. There was another staff member on holiday with his girlfriend and parents in Phuket. Unfortunately he's missing along with his parents. His girlfriend was found up a tree, and is in hospital in a critical condition. Kinda brings it closer to home when that happens.
On a slighlty more upbeat note, watched Desparate Housewives last night.
First impressions - weird. And my, Teri Hatcher is looking old. Not sure if I like it yet. Humour was good, and can't remember much else about it. Was knackered. Anyways, I'm gonna give it a chance.
Oh, and Yayy! for me, I've actually made a non-ranty comment for a change. :-)
