Here We Go Again!

8 Jan

So, dudes, 2010. How’s it all travelling?

I was ready to see the arse end of 2009 as it was, but as a parting shot I spent midnight sitting next to D’Daddy’s bed in the emergency ward. Turns out NYE was the night a couple of his gallstones decided to go for a bit of a wander – cue acute pain, major discomfort and an ambulance ride for D’Daddy. The gallstones went or whatever else they do to stop hurting, but his gallbladder was infected and they were planning on taking it out. After a few days in hospital the antibiotics fixed him up and he was allowed to come home and have the actual op in a couple of weeks. Drama til the very last second, I tell you.

So I’ve been “seeing” my date every couple of days now (probs time to give her a name, leave it with me…) Had ice-cream last Tuesday, then breakfast Saturday and then dinner on Tuesday night. There are tentative plans to catch up for some drinks tonight. I really don’t know how this is gonna play out, she’s really fun and lovely and just chilled about everything. She is planning on going OS mid year, but not indefinately and has also said she’s not against long-distance relationships. I am kinda happy to be involved with her under whatever situation will work, but I am not entirely sure if she’s keen or she’s not sure what she wants or if she’s not sure where *I* stand on things. I am just having fun, I like hanging out with her so even if it doesn’t evolve into pashing then whatevs.

Have had Best back in Brisbane for the last couple of weeks now. Between her, new date and seeing my other friends I have become quite the social butterfly. At the start of next week though, she’ll be pissing off to London so things will quieten down again. I love the couple of weeks that I get to see Best and Jac every year, but they are always so hectic! It’s hard to fit a year or so worth a quality time into just a week, occupational hazard of being the one who is left behind, I guess.

Tonight I am gonna get my drink on. I am feeling a little too full of brain cells so it’s time to thin them out again. I have made three different kinds of jelly shots. One is Love cordial and vodka with heart shaped sprinkles, the other is pear juice and Pears Absolut and the last type is Bacardi and guava. I have gone slightly overboard and made 50+ shots for what may end up being about six people, but it’s so fun. Soon I will slice up tiny pieces of pear to set into the pear shots and maybe find some other decoration for the guava ones. The Love ones turned out amazingly, I am feeling very excited because it’s kind of like cooking and I didn’t fuck it up. Fingers crossed for one random pash, I don’t even care who, just feel like pashing :)
