Save Boxer from the Glue Factory

"If I seem distant that's because you shouldn't see me crying, Ice Cold Ice" - Ice Cold Ice - Husker Du

Orwellian titles aside I do have a bit of a bee in my bonnet today anyway so settle back a bit and get comfy. I dunno why but it hit me last night/this morning/some time that I shoulda been asleep but wasn't that falling out of love with somebody is about the worst thing you can say about somebody. I mean, look at it reasonably here. You go from saying, not literally perhaps, but in essence "You're amazingly special and wonderful" to "Actually, scratch that, I was wrong". And people wonder why exes can't usually get on after serious relationships??? Hello? Has 'Sex & The City' really made morons of everybody? The more I think about it I'd sooner be told "Dar, I don't think you have a single redeeming feature about you. Not even your laid-back, self-deprecating charm and dry wit. Seriously. You in fact suck," than for somebody to say "I don't love you anymore." I can handle somebody not liking me (probably just as well too!) It just means that they're wrong right? But when somebody recognises my usually unrecognised good qualities and then still comes to that conclusion after being about as far from that conclusion as it's possible to be at one point I think I'm justified in being just a little bit aggrieved. But enough about that. For now. I may return to this topic at a future date.

Onto other news, I had to work extra hours in work today because Tipu was sick. Tipu, if you are reading this then let me tell you that you also suck! Not as much as anybody who might fall out of love with me but at least a little. Actually I don't mean that at all. Tipu in fact rocks. As one of only two people (Trev being the other) who made the trip out to watch My Pet Giraffe supporting local band Battery a coupla weeks ago he scores highly on the Darometer.

As does Sorcha who I saw unexpectedly for the first time in what feels like millenia today. It was good. Sorcha buys crazy birthday gifts. Not always practical mind you but always good for a laugh.

Anyway, I shall make tracks now. Possibly in the direction of home. I didn't get paid today though. :-(

And congrats to Shelbourne. Everybody still hates ya but you done us proud boys! :-D
