Lazy Sunday?

Well, I hark back to my new years resolutions - I maybe able to tick off a few now (i have found a new house: VERY EXCITING - I am currently trying to sell my stuff on Gumtree - any takers?), and after the weekend - I maybe off the shelf of life...at least for the moment.

Issues dating someone younger:
1) I need at least 8 hours sleep - they, generally do not -
2) full of youthful enthusiasm - I am generally not...
3) the look of money is totally different - I have rent/bills/rowing/etc to pay for - they generally pay rent to their parents.
4) Being ID in pubs - an issue - even if it is hilarious...
5) ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm there are lots of benefits tho...

I have retyped and reworked my CV so I may fulfil all my NYR by the end of March - now that would be a good year!

Jealous? Much?

I am not actually seeing anyone..although I maybe dating someone - so I like to think I am sitting on the very edge of the shelf of life. But every since I announced to a couple of friends I keep getting various mixed messages from Friend A. Friend A has implied on many occasions that we "Hook Up" (But if you have been reading my blog - meaningless sex) - and I have stated that "I am ready to actually play at this whole relationship thing." Which didnt go down well with Friend A - who keep referring to our sexual tension...apparently (I am yet to fully see what Friend A means). No apparently does not mean NO!

We were conversing last night - I was explaining that I am now on date 3 with this person, and so I am not wanting or looking for "hook ups" (again please refer to my previous post). They're reply "but you're not actually dating", which of course is right - I am not actually dating (but when do you go past the dating stage to the BF/GF stage - this transitions has puzzled me for quite a number of years, as i failed to make that transition on a number of occasions) and the reply "well plenty of time then" - plenty of time for what? So i rolled over and went to sleep...

Do people become more attractive the more unattainable they get - or has society just changed so that casual hook up are seen as acceptable? mmmm not wholly convinced - I like the fact that the person I am seeing does not have someone else in each port.

A bit of comedy

Billy was at school this morning and the teacher asked all the children
what their fathers did for a living.


All the typical answers came out, fireman, policeman, salesman, chippy,
captain of industry etc, but Billy was being uncharacteristically quiet
and so the teacher asked him about his father.


"My father is an exotic dancer in a gay club and takes off all his
clothes in front of other men. Sometimes if the offer is really good,
he'll go out with a man, rent a cheap hotel room and let them
sleep with him."


The teacher quickly set the other children some work and took little
Billy aside to ask him if that was really true.


"No" said Billy,

"He plays cricket for Australia but I was just too embarrassed to say."

Subject: Senior moment - A 98 year old woman in the UK wrote this to her bank.

The bank manager thought it amusing enough to have it published in the Times.
Dear Sir,

I am writing to thank you for bouncing my cheque with which I endeavoured to pay my plumber last month. By my calculations, three nanoseconds must have elapsed between his presenting the cheque and the arrival in my account of the funds needed to honour it. I refer, of course, to the automatic monthly deposit of my Pension, an arrangement, which, I admit, has been in place for only thirty eight years. You are to be commended for seizing that brief window of opportunity, and also for debiting my account £30 by way of penalty for the inconvenience caused to your bank.

My thankfulness springs from the manner in which this incident has caused me to rethink my errant financial ways. I noticed that whereas I personally attend to your telephone calls and letters, but when I try to contact you, I am confronted by the impersonal, overcharging, pre-recorded, faceless entity which your bank has become. From now on, I, like you, choose only to deal with a flesh-and-blood person. My mortgage and loan payments will therefore and hereafter no longer be automatic, but will arrive at your bank by cheque, addressed personally and confidentially to an employee at your bank whom you must nominate. Be aware that it is an offence under the Postal Act for any other person to open such an envelope.

Please find attached an Application Contact Status which I require your chosen employee to complete. I am sorry it runs to eight pages, but in order that I know as much about him or her as your bank knows about me, there is no alternative. Please note that all copies of his or her medical history must be countersigned by a Solicitor, and the mandatory details of his/her financial situation (income, debts, assets and liabilities) must be accompanied by documented proof. In due course, I will issue your employee with PIN number which he/she must quote in dealings with me. I regret that it cannot be shorter than 28 digits but, again, I have modelled it on the number of button presses required of me to access my account balance on your phone bank service. As they say, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Let me level the playing field even further. When you call me, press buttons as follows:

1. To make an appointment to see me.
2. To query a missing payment.
3. To transfer the call to my living room in case I am there.
4. To transfer the call to my bedroom in case I am sleeping.
5. To transfer the call to my toilet in case I am attending to nature.
6. To transfer the call to my mobile phone if I am not at home.
7. To leave a message on my computer (a password to access my computer is required.
A password will be communicated to you at a later date to the Authorized Contact.)
8. To return to the main menu and to listen to options 1 through to 8.
9. To make a general complaint or inquiry, the contact will then be put on hold, pending the attention of my automated answering service. While this may, on occasion, involve a lengthy wait, uplifting music will play for the duration of the call.

Regrettably, but again following your example, I must also levy an establishment fee to cover the setting up of this new arrangement.

May I wish you a happy, if ever so slightly less prosperous, New Year.

Your Humble Client

(Remember: This was written by a 98 year old woman; DOESN'T SHE MAKE YOU PROUD!)
