Sex and the city

Oh my god! My last post was in April...which is a shame really because a whole summer went by and neither Brain nor myself bothered to draft anything up. And when university started again my mind started wandering, ' If a->b, i.e If I can write an assignment then I can write a blog'.

All this came to be thanks to my new hobby; watching Sex and the city. What previously seemed like a tacky series that I would never consider watching has now become my bedtime story. How can things change so rapidly? Is it because I have now reached the quarter of a century of life? Do I relate to these four women? Did Carrie and her column inspire me to start my blog again?

I have been in a steady relationship for a little bit 'more than 2 weeks' so the relationships so far (I'm in season 3) have nothing in common what so ever with my very own Mr Big. Then again I do have a special relationship with Marlborough Lights.If I thought my 20's are complex then life in my 30's must be even worse. But then again life is really not that bad, I do not own a pair of Jimmy Choo's but I do have a growing IronFist collection.

Another thing about Sex and the city is that it got me thinking...(not that that has ever been an issue) but I now think in a column kind of way. I analyse; how people think, if I am the only one with these issues, if there is actually a pattern to all of these crazy things going on.

Will my blog take this kind of style? I do not know...

Well i guess like typical series style its to be continued...

New year and all that new me crap!

So the first quarter of the year is almost over...and resolutions are down the drain!

Resolution 1. Smoking kills so smoke less.
I tackled this by using my pretty denim roll up pouch, which i filled with rolling paper, tobacco and filters. Tiny problem forgot to add 'Maintain pouch' in the resolution list thus I ended up with no rolling paper, did not bother to go buy and I was back to my pre-rolled chemical induced cigarettes. (I also found I missed the extra dose of nicotine these babies pack).

Resolution 2. Living on my own and being responsible.
So...I now have to think about food that needs to be cooked, laundry that needs to be done and floors that need cleaning. I also found that living on my own gives me ample time for Gin and tonic in between which I try to sweep the floor and wipe the shelves. I have now made an effort to sort out the laundry in colours and whites! I also cleaned one (very big) window (hi5 for me) and our menu has included delicious soups and pastas. The problem with this resolution is finding the time to do the cleaning as well as the motivation to cook or do any chores in general. I simply can't ignore this resolution as living in a dump is not an option. So bring on that cleaning motivation ...and more Gin and tonics ...in half pint glasses!

P.S Cigarettes are bad and so is excessive drinking!
