I should have posted this last week already, but work’s been crazy!

I had to rush home last Tuesday to be on time for my partner’s ex-boss to deliver some documents to finalise our new home’s purchase. Got there with 20 minutes to spare. Our best friends called and asked if they could drop by for coffee. They show up, ex-boss still isn’t there… He’s now running late I assume. Went outside for a cigarette, and somebody puts their arms around me from behind… It’s my partner! I think I hugged him for 5 minutes without letting go.

It seems they had been planning this for 3 weeks and nobody let anything slip. Made my week!

If the above phrase is true, I’m well on my way there. At 120 kilometres per hour.

I haven’t posted anything in more than a month, but a lot has happened since then:

I’m still deciding if I should look for a new full-time job down in Cape Town or if I’ll be able to get by on a full-time half-day job from my current employer and additional freelance web work. I would love to work from home.

I’ll get some more of those absolutely delightful poems up at some stage, but am currently busy with some freelance work (which I should be getting back to now).

Your hair – a deep shade of wood;
and in your eyes, the likelihood
of spring grass from the meadows.
Your happiness marked by the crows.

A walk noticed by all the world,
your hair ever so slightly curled.
A body crafted to extremist perfection,
carrying your being to the perfect vision.

Your smile lets squint even the brightest sun,
while your laugh must be the perfect one.
If only your heart was open and giving…
But on this one flaw, I’ll be forgiving.

I needed to phone a friend last night. Out of the 30 numbers on my phone there wasn’t one person I could call. How sad is that? I know that we (my partner and I) have friends, but they’re either “our” friends or his friends.

Now, I thought I’d made a friend the other day, but obviously I’m still the most uninteresting person I know. I’ll end this pity party now.
