Dogs & people

This amuses me.
I feel it may be true. I quite like poodles as well, sadly enough.
How is Sally today?
Better than I have been. Pondering various things - my attitudes to friendship, my weird concentric circles of people, and how to deal with people I don't like. I'm sure I used to be able to co-exist with people that rubbed me up the wrong way. Somewhere along the way I lost that, and developed this habit of just refusing to be in the same room as anyone I didn't like.
It's mostly not affected my life too much. At work, I work bloody hard on liking people, on being inoffensive and I mostly try and find a corner of my own in which to work. As the Fan Museum is quite good on leaving me alone in corners, I do fine.
In my social life, I've worked quite hard on creating my own little clique, where I get to spend time with people I really do like. And I avoid anyone I don't. The Cam, in that respect, has been quite scary for me. It's a place where anyone could turn up.
Ach. I'll keep pondering. In the meantime, I'm going to go to college.

Date: 2008-05-01 11:17 am (UTC)I think I have become much more focused on my 'local' area, which is something I regret. In a lot of ways, getting back into Cam has been really good for me - it's got me traveling again and means I see people I've let drift away, which I do really appreciate.
(on another note - I am organzing a hen night for you. I've just been slow, and now I'm realising that Becky and I only have a couple of months! Eep!)

Date: 2008-05-01 11:44 am (UTC)I never left cam, I just stopped travelling - course exhaustion and teaching also contributed to that. I know I'm really bad at going places, but I don't like to abandon Andy to go off on my own but if we both go then we have the cats and Tad to worry about and £17.50 is a lot to pay out just to attend a roleplaying game and that's before you add travel costs and food and other things.
You have under 3 months, 2 weeks and 1 day to sort it! I'm also planning on doing something on or around the 7th as my 'last birthday before I'm married, argggh! I'm getting married!" event.
If it helps I'm only just printing the invites to the wedding, and I keep changing my mind about how I'm going to do them. Am I going to have the personalised bit stuck in only on one side (at which point I can do 4 per page) or am I going to do it booklet style (at which point do I stick both sides down or do I use a staple and print something soppy on the front of the booklet). It doesn't help that people won't give me their addresses - which reminds me, do you have Mr Moody's address and are you allowed to give it out?

Date: 2008-05-01 11:47 am (UTC)I can remember most of it off the top of my head, but the house number is one I always get wrong, and I don't want random other men from Fore Street, Hatfield to turn up to your wedding.
Do you need my address btw? Or do you have it?
