"If I had long hair, I'd dye it pink too!"...

Sorry I haven't blogged for such a long time, Mum's been doing her dissertation and no one else was allowed within touching distance of the computer! But I have done quite a lot since when i lasted blogged! I can't really remember everything...for one thing I went to Beautiful days a couple of weekends ago (18th-20th August)
It was awesome! Ella and Bekki came round my house on the Thursday night, Bekki fell asleep, and Ella and I stayed up watching 'The Jungle Book' followed by 'Aladdin' till Jim came round at half 3 Friday morning! We went round to my friend Tony's house (the guy who knows the Levellers) and waited for everyone to get themselves together before setting off in convoey down to Escot Park, Devon. We got there, parked up, then had to carry many heavy bags up and down hills to a space to set up camp. I could talk for hours about the festie...to cut it short: Drunk in Public, lots of booze, incredible food, Buzzcocks, Jim is amazinly drunk, Dylan Moran, The Proclaimers, lots of dancing etc, dressing up in a cat suit and mask, The Levellers! Woooooo! It was COOL!
The weekend just gone was also pretty damn cool! Jim was back on the Friday early, plus it was a bank holiday (as you all already know!)so I got extra Jim time! YAY! :) We all went to the pub as usual Friday night, but Adam, Emily, Emma, Scotty, Jim and I all left kinda early 'cos Adam had a free house, so he decided to have a small gathering of drunkerness! Which was much fun! On Saturday, it was really weird not working, but Jim brought me home 'cos Saturday was the day of Party Fun! Woot! We had planned for ages to have a Treasure hunt leading from Jim's house (where everyone thought the party was)all around the countryside, to my house! It kinda didn't go according to plan...but nevertheless we had a really good party in the end inc. a keg of beer containing 77 pints of abbot ale, and much much more alcohol! AWESOME! We provided bacon butties in the morning and everyone had left by midday on the Sunday! Jim and I cleaned and hoovered up, then collapsed on the sofa together with some 'fizzy make nice' to clear our heads. Jim left mine at about 3 to go spend some time with his mum and dad, but came back round at about half8 to spend the night with me. I love bank holiday Mondays..I get to have an extra night of snuggles with Jim! Woot! We had a nice lie in (still kinda knackered from Sat night)then Jim had to go home to sort his stuff out to go back to work that night. We said our goodbyes 'cos he said he was going staight to work from home, and left me feeling sad *I don't think I'm ever gunna be able to get used to saying bye and not seeing him for a week or more* but anyways I got on and cleaned to house abit more so it was nice for when mum got home, and cooked me and my sister some food. Josephine was getting ready to be picked up to go to a party that evening, and she rushed outside as a car pulled up and someone came through the gate to the backdoor...it was Jim! YAY! He came to quickly say bye again, 'cos he said he couldn't leave without seeing me again...we hugged and kissed, and then he had to go again. This weekend he's in Ireland for an airshow, and I'm going away with my mum and sister. Jim's away next weekend aswell at another airshow, I'm really gunna miss him! I miss him already!
I need to find a job...I finally know what it is I want to do, so now I just gotta find a placement in that workfield!...will make time go quicker so I can see Jim sooner! I think I'm gunna call him tonight, if he's not at work too late, he's on extended days so I have no idea what time he's going to be finished by!? Oh well....Love you baby xxx

Turned It. Down...

Ok so everyone is calling me crazy 'cos I turned down the chance to go on an all expenses paid holiday to Italy for 5 days 6 nights staying near Pompeii in a hotel with Adam and Emily, plus her two brothers, last Thursday! They're due back today at 4 O'colck so I hope the holiday went really well for them...I guess I'll find that one out later! The thing is, Jim was back early on Friday and I'd been really excited bout seeing him for the past 2 weeks (he wasn't home last weekend) and both our family's were away for the weekend...so we had both been looking forward to being with eachother. Then on last Wednesday night, Adam calls me at home saying that Emily's dad had f**ked up with his passport so could no longer go on his holiday to Italy with his kids...therefore leaving a ticket spare (or money wasted) and wanted to know if I could take his place!? I had to let them know asap ie. in a few hours, whether or not I could go 'cos they had to change the name on the ticket! It was one of the hardest decisions 'cos part of me was screaming yes, and part of me was screaming no...plus everyone around me wanted me to go! The thing was I was going to feel doubt either way so I just had to go with my gut feeling and not go. I do kinda wish I went, but staying home this weekend was great! Lots of good things have happened to me, and lots of great things have happened between me and Jim so I know I made the right choice of staying here..I can't wait to see Adam and Emily once they're back!
