I had three pseudo dates with this dude Tim. He was cool but it’s not gonna happen. He can’t do the casual thing and I’m too fucked up to do a relationship right now. I had fun though and it was good to get back into the dating thing. I even went to his place, which sounds stupidly normal, but I haven’t been back to a dudes house, since… Nate? So we’re talking about a long time. The idea of going to someones house generally makes me horribly anxious, so it was something to cross off the list. Going to Tim’s was no exception, in the nervousness stakes, but I knew I had enough money on me to get a taxi and it’d only take ten minutes, so that was reassuring. Lesson learnt? For some reason, some dudes would like to date me. I should give them a chance instead of chasing after emotionally stunted douchebags who give me the run around.
I was meant to go out for dinner with the parentals on Saturday night for Mamas birthday dinner, but by Saturday morning the cough I’d had all week had turned into an unstoppable coughing and wheezing frenzy that would end in hurling. I actually woke myself up Friday morning mid choking session. I coughed for an hour! I was watching the clock coz I knew my housemates would be annoyed by the early hour of my obnoxiously loud cough. It was so bad, I fell asleep with a towel over my mouth to muffle the sound. So yeah, didn’t go out for dinner. Instead, stayed at home under a doona. We’re going to go next Saturday instead. Hopefully, by then I’ll be able to taste the awesomeness of what I’m eating. Yay prawn rolls!
I’m going to watch Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.
