You know I think the tide is turning. Tom had a day off yesterday with me and we managed to not argue for the entire day. My tongue is sore from too much biting but that's the price we pay for domestic calm (haha). We went for breakfast which was cool since we don't normally eat in the morning, did some shopping and to make a change he spent more on clothes than me. He is such a tart sometimes it's quite scary! I have come to the conclusion that men are bigger posers than women, us girls just admit it more openly.
Hung out at the beach for the afternoon which was sunny but a little on the fresh side, was nice to be out. I guess most people wouldn't see the excitement in it but let's face it- I am sad and pathetic; that and I don't leave the house to often what with working and living there.
Watched a film called Stay last night. You should check it out if you get a chance. It's about a shrink that takes on a colleague's client and gets wrapped up the patients world. Ewan McGregor is excellent as the confused yet conscientious shrink (although what was he thinking when he did his hair cos all I was thinking of gel in a wind tunnel). Ryan Gosling played the troubled student and did one hell of a job. Kept you thinking the whole way through the movie and left a few questions after so was better than alot of the movies they release at the moment. Wanted to see Munich really but Tom wasn't so keen.
Ok so now is the time I really have to say something that will probably make you cringe and think I am nuts so I apologise in advance. My parrot moshes to Panic! At The Disco. I know it sounds daft but she really does. She may well be so stupid she has chewed her feathers so bad she can't fly at the moment but she is smart enough to enjoy good music. She used to sing to certain bands but since we taught her to nod when she wants something or to answer a question she has taken to nodding to the music she likes. It's quite funny to watch, well I was amused anyway.
I have the joy of seeing Tom's nan tomorrow. We are going round there with dinner to save her cooking for herself. What fun. I know I sound mean and yes you are damn right, I am, but I don't care. I feel sorry for her and how quickly she has gone down hill and I make every effort to be nice and helpful too but it doesn't mean I have to like her. I'm going to hell anyway, we all are.
Work is pretty boring at the moment, I just can't get into it like I used to. I dealt with a few complaints, spoke to a few people about telephone systems, and just generally hung out until it was time to log off at the end of the day. I want to be enthused about my job, someone help me.
I can't believe how early it gets dark now, all I can see is the silhouette of the house opposite, no definition of brick work; it's illuminated from behind by the orange glow of a street lamp. Street lights always make me think of winter, that orange light brings me back to all the times I would walk to and from school in the near darkness and Christmas shopping after school with my friends. Funny I even remember waiting at the bus stop in Gidea Park for an hour every night for the bus home after work; I remember that with a worrying amount of nostalgia considering I hated the job and was frozen and normally soaked from the inevitable rain.
Anyway I am droning on.
Tonight I am thinking of Open/broken heart purgery. Someone save me from myself.
