These are the days

Oh, I want so badly to have something interesting to write about tonight... but I don't. Such is my existence.

What's been going on in the world of StrangeBird I hear you ask? Not a lot, really. I've been spending a bit of money... naughty... naughty me. I don't know what it is. No, I lie, I do. It makes me feel better. When I can get what I want, even if I have to pay for it - I don't care. Could the same work with a man?? Hmm.. probably yes, but it'd likely be short-lived, a little awkward, and possibly a lot illegal.

A friend, I guess you'd call her a friend, a good friend even (?) is leaving town for good in two days time. I'm not sure how I feel about it. She's kind of been one of those friends, that I think maybe I gave more than I got? So, part of the emotion I feel is probably relief. But I'm also going to miss her and her family - they gave me another dimension. Plus, she was a workmate too, and losing her permanently at work is just another reminder that I fit in even less now. There are less people on my 'team'.

I'm looking forward to my trip away - but I don't think the weather is going to be too grand. It doesn't matter to me. For me to say I was away from this place, is good enough for me. It's funny actually, something must've urged me to take this leave now - because wouldn't you know it, it'll be SpottedApple's birthday while I am away from work. Part of me regrets the days off, just because I'm curious how a birthday with the boyfriend at work is going to look - but then, the logical, self preserving part of me, recognises this is a lucky coincidence, and that the universe is looking out for me that day. I don't want to be bitter, I don't even want him (John) anymore - as far as I can tell he's ruined; he has changed for the worse. I'm over the drama. OVER IT.
