Unrequited Love

and other assorted oddities

So it's Valantines day, (GMT) as of some minutes ago. And for those, like me, who'll be sleeping alone tonight, it's a royal pain in the ass.

In my case, slighty more royal than most. A friend of mine has chosen today, of all days, to begin his STAG DAY/weekend. Well, I say "friend" but he's more of an accquaintance really. Truth to tell, I don't think he likes me a whole lot, but we're part of the same circle of friends and he's too nice a guy to say anything.

So he's going to leave his perfectly lovely and totally sexy fiancee, to go boozing up with some mates down in Robertswood. I have to, at this point, question the mans sanity.

Not that I have any objections to Stag do's at all. In one way, it might even make sense for US (not him). After all, what female in a happy relationship will be out in the pub on Valentines night? Oh, I think the pubs and clubs will have either couples, or lonely desperate women in them. And I know which type these guys are loooking for.

Not me of course. I have my eye on someone else, who sadly won't be accompanying us, because she's away out of the country at the moment. How do I stay faithful to a woman who's miles away? I get too drunk to function sexually. That usually works. After all, when I've had THAT much to drink, I'm a lot less charming.
