Happily ever after

shall we be, my baby and me :)
Mr S gave the the bling bling phone and a new fierce bag that I have been craving. Actually he started out by giving me a scented candle and flavoured tea... not really my cup of tea so to speak...

Christmas with the family went surprisingly well. Mr S loved it. He hasn't had a "family christmas" since he was a kid and I've always had them. I gues you don't miss the water...
I'd still love to spend one christmas in Italy.

I only had 3 days off, so now I'm back at work. It's safe to say that nothing has changed: still a complete chaos. I haven't decided yet wheather I'm staying or not but since I'm not yet financially independent I have to have a job.
Our nem Maitre d' has brought in some of her old staff. They are nice and all that but she used to work in a rock club where they mostly sold beer and a shot on the side. I know for a fact that NH tries to be a bit more high end than that.

Had an interesting conversation with Mr S last night. Recently I've been feeling very happy lately in a surreal way. I guess I'm not used to it. Anyway, I felt like I use to feel when I'm on vacation, like I'm happy now but it'll soon end and then I realize that this won't end...at least I hope so.
The funny thing is that he has been feeling the same way.

Maybe we are a perfect match after all :)

Take care

Dilemma

Imagine the following scenario:
You have this woman friend, who after a rough divorce with infidelity and the works, is finally dating again. She goes online and finds a man on an on line dating service. They chat on line and talk on the phone and after a while they meet IRL. They really hit it off, no sex on the first date though.
Then he breaks the news: he is married and hopes she doesn't have a problem with that. Your friend is obviously devastated and wants to call the wife and tell her the whole story.

What would you do?
1. Encourage her to call and hold her hand while she did it?

2. Talk her out of calling the wife. She has wasted enough time on this two timing dog and she should get on with her life and leave him in his misery.

3. Call the wife yourself?

I'd go with option no 2. It's not my place to reveal someone infidelity. I do think however that had the wife been a friend of mine I would have reacted differently. I probably would have told her but I would have given her some hints.
On some level I think you'd sense it if your partner is cheating on you. I think that is what they call going through life with your eyes wide shut...

Got to love it

Leonard Katzman - does the name ring a bell?? It's the man who wrote, directed and produced Dallas, the ultimate soap opera. A new TV channel TV4 Gold is all about old series so today I've watched Kojak, Miami Vice, at the moment Dallas and I'm looking forward to Baywatch and Baretta later tonight. Am at home today trying to cure my stomach flu.

The weekend was nice. Friday Mr S came back from Munich with a new job offer and a lovely bottle of champagne for me :) I was totally beat from the last weeks of too much work so I had some wine and take out thaifood and fell asleep around midnight.

Saturday we did some quick shopping for the apartment. I bought another lovely black vase and then we met up with sis and Jocke for an all French dinner. The food was OK - no more no less. I did expect more since the restaurant got some really great reviews lately.

I have deleted Dr C from my cell phone. I can't really see any reason why I should keep his number, it's not like I'm going to call him again.
When I am in "his" part of town I keep looking over my shoulder in case I would run into him. One part of me hopes to met him and "show off" Mr S just to make him see that I am worth so much more and so much better that what he gave me but on the other hand it's no point because I really don't think he cares.

I have also given some of my friendships a lot of thought lately. I need to surround myself with people who wishes me well. I can't stand the negativity and jealousy some people around me seems to live with.

Later today I'm going to make a CD for sis. She seemed quite down on Saturday so I think some good music will cheer her up a bit.

Seems like this summers holiday will be a road trip to Munich, could be great fun :)

Take care/E
