Facebook

So, I started a facebook account to maintain contact with some of my friends, so I don't lose them all!! Ha ha. This is so bloody womany.

The lad who sent me the nasty email this week just updated his profile. I sent:


Hope you're alright, just noticed your update. Having a few drinks tomorrow night at my sis's place and I'd love you to join.


Oh my gosh, I am actually playing along with the sappy, womany nonsense.

I am going to work extra hard on my pushups on my knuckles this evening in Taekwondo to make up for this horrendous emasculation.

Update

1. I was about to send a text to ask if I could call over tonight, and then I remembered we live together. Mi piace molto! (I like a lot - but more like it appeals to me, or favours me, a lot).

2. I lost another friend.
The email I received:
I don’t do petty holding things against people but it’s not the first time I’ve said something like this to you and if others have said similar things well maybe eventually the message will get through…….if you want to go through life giving people the impression that you are only interested in “what’s in it for Dr. Shale” and see everyone else as lesser beings that should be honoured to know you……well you may find it difficult to maintain friendships……..maybe you like to surround yourself with people who you feel are inferior to you so that they don’t pose a treat to you……and that’s an insecurity issue that only you can sort out…….I’d doubt for instance that you have ever introduced the Italian to any of your younger good looking male friends and if you did you definitely wouldn’t leave them alone with her for long……..or just maybe you have the right type of personality you need to survive in the financial world it certainly seems to be the reason the country is fucked at the moment……..loads of people just looking after number one…….I personally like the idea of waking up each morning and being able to live with myself……..I believe friendships are about give and take……not just one way traffic where one person just takes and is never around when they are needed to give something back……..sorry if I’m coming across a bit harsh but that’s the impression you give people whether you mean to or not……
My response is a bit:
A. Go fuck yourself.
B. You are a bloke. Toughen the fuck up. You are not on the monthly blob.
C. What the hell are you talking about?
D. Go fuck yourself.

3. I am taking up actuarial exams.

4. Oh, yeah, I am obviously upset about number 2, but I am also really quite offended.

Wedding Plan

We have decided on three things so far:
1. It will be in Italy. This was decided within 25 minutes of the proposal.
2. It will be in May next year.
3. It will be civil, not religious. We decided this last night. She was brought up Catholic but only as a vague tradition, and I was brought up Born Again Christian, but am a rather fundamentalist atheist now. We agreed that lying on our wedding day by giving vows to an entity we do not believe in would not be a good start. Best of all, she suggested it. How sweet. :)

We are going to sit down and draw up a work breakdown structure and a Gantt chart.

My question:
What needs to be planned for a wedding?

Hydrocortisone

Oh my, oh my, it can be bought without prescription!!!!! Yay!!! I am plastered in the stuff. My eczema has been getting to me so much I feel like digging my fingers through my flesh and tearing out a chunk of bone.

On another note: Teething problems. The nobody, anywhere, that follows my blog will know I moved in with my fiance this Saturday. We are in a temporary situation, living with her sister.

I wanted to use the dryer, and asked P to take her sister's clothes out of it, as I did not really want to be moving in one day and handling the girls knickers the next day. P interpreted this as me having a cynical, perverse mind that focused on her sister's knickers. I just did not want anybody to have the opportunity to call me perverse, and thought the easiest thing was to avoid any opportunity for an issue to come up.

Disastrous argument ensues... and one which obviously I cannot win no matter what because it does not even make much sense in the first place, or does it?

Sick

A WOMAN suspected of recruiting more than 80 female suicide bombers has confessed to organising their rapes so she could later convince them that martyrdom was the only way to escape the shame.
