Problem I have is that I don't have any decent pics of me as I am usually the wrong side of teh camera...so they are all passport style photos, taken by the kids (usually my bad side), include the kids or just plain hideous...

watchoutforthatsnail · 15/09/2012 12:09

Haunted, camera phone and instagram are your friends :)

Even makes me look half decent, snape is going to get hell of a shock on wed!!!

Scatty, nah, no skill involved. Just magic paint and over enthuasim :)

No, not at all. Really lovely bloke, I knew there was no future in it, had a lovely intellectual and personal connection with him, wasn't a ONS as there were a couple of occasions. Fully aware that he?s seeing other people with view to settling down and having kids. It's only a fucking fabulous fling for as long as it takes for PM to wake the fuck-up or him to meet the mother of his children. I also suspect he's a strayer- once children come along the levels of kinky fuckery will in all probability dwindle as the tough job of parenting takes precedence & he'll look elsewhere, or pay for it if I get to keep him as a lovely-friend then that's fine...and I suspect I'll love his wife. :)

Me wise, (sexual) confidence through the roof, feel amazingly good about myself and that has a knock-on effect anyway, so all really positive and good. Very glad I met the prof & fucked him ragged.

Got an email from someone at theatre group just now, 'would you or your husband be interested in a small speaking role...? Tempted to forward it on to PM with 'oh, forgot to mention, we're married now...' in the title line and sign it 'wife' except he'd die on the spot.

snapespeare · 15/09/2012 12:13

Grin at watch shocking me on Wednesday when ALL my fb photos are intagrammed to hell and back. I sodding love instagram. There's a fab wee photo editing freebie called 'pixlr' which is amazing, I use it all the time. :)

watchoutforthatsnail · 15/09/2012 12:20

Snape, is it quite possible we wont recognize each other..LOL

ChaoticismyLife · 15/09/2012 12:21

Oh, go on, do it, snape Grin

watch teacher sounds good.

sponge you're sounding happier this morning. Have a good weekend.

Dd is home for the weekend, her uni timetable means she gets a four day weekend. She does know that once she's got started she'll be doing work outside of lectures but for this weekend she's enjoying herself and making the most of the free time.

Grin. I'll look for someone with glorious hair and a small whirling over excited child. You keep an eye-out for tall and tattooed. Wink

watchoutforthatsnail · 15/09/2012 12:34

Deal.
:)

TimeForMeAndDD · 15/09/2012 12:38

Snape I don't think PM has lots of secrets from you, I think he is trying to intrigue you, while making himself appear more 'interesting' to you. Smile

snapespeare · 15/09/2012 12:57

Humph. Well, it's working.

I might forward that email. I don't like the possibility of him replying to the director-chappie with 'husband?! God, no!'

I like people thinking we're married. Blush

Yogagirl17 · 15/09/2012 13:18

Ooh, Snape and Watch have a date! Grin

Frenchman is very, very lovely - he is being funny & charming and told me I'm attractive and kind looking (Hmm wonder if that's a language thing but still, I'm all for a bit of flattery). Seems we've lived some of the same places before despite us both being from different countries. And he's been asking what kind of films I like when I get some child-free time. And he's speaking to me in French. Vibes are good. Smile

watchoutforthatsnail · 15/09/2012 13:24

Yoga!!! Hurrah.

hatesponge · 15/09/2012 13:51

Yoga, great news :)

My plans may be curtailed, text friends to confirm evening plans first thing this am and no reply...honestly I seem to spend my entire life waiting around for people to text me back! Hmm

Yogagirl17 · 15/09/2012 13:56

Oh and I have temporarily disabled my OKC account just to be sure Irish/American gets the hint!

Sponge - hope your plans for tonight work out, sounds like you could do with a good fun (date-free!) night out.

(I wonder what snape and watch are going to wear for their date...)

Worley · 15/09/2012 14:12

watch - no.. no second date arranged yet. he asked me at the end last night if I would like to go for a meal with him next time. so may be. but I'm
working next weekend do couldn't go then and my ds's aren't due to go to their dads till the weekend after.. so may be a little wait until next date. he knows with my job things are a little hectic. it also turned out his ex also works for the emergency services. this town is far too small !!! but he is already used to it so don't have to break him in to nhs ruling my life lol... but we don't have a date for second date yet so in gettin carried away !

OhWesternWind · 15/09/2012 17:48

Date tonight for me - feeling fine about it as I don't really have any expectations beyond hoping it's a pleasant night. He's taking me to the same place as Mr Bitumen the date from hell so it's bound to be better than that!! Think he's probably trying to impress a bit too by taking me there so that can only be a good sign.

Good luck to everyone who's out tonight!

snapespeare · 15/09/2012 18:03

Report back western :) (I know you will anyway, I'm being gently encouraging.

PM has a cold! Poor love! No nearer finding out the mystery assignation (as the cold poll & hydro pools were shut, I needed him relaxed...) he got a message on OKC from someone this afternoon (grr! Jealous RAGE!) & didn't reply as her photos were all underwear based & tits out. (hooray!)

The prof has returned, he was on a 3rd date with the other woman (calling her cat woman, cat woman, this is thread. Thread this is cat woman) last night, so hadnt texted (which is respectful to cat woman and good) but we're chatting away just now. Told him I thought I'd been 'demoted', which is apparently nothing to worry about.

fayster · 15/09/2012 19:11

Ooh, have fun, Western.

Who else has a date this weekend?

Nice to meet you, cat woman. If your dates with the prof get as far as the bedroom, Snape says you're in for a treat!

snapespeare · 15/09/2012 19:35

catwoman. I'm not sure if you know I exist, but (ahem!) you have a lot to live up to... Blush

Yogagirl17 · 15/09/2012 19:40

Ha ha I think catwoman is in trouble! I almost feel bad for her.

Have fun western

I am in with kids all weekend but that's fine because it's giving me time to get to know Frenchman. Next weekend however I am child free for an unprecedented 3 nights so hoping to have been suitably wooed by then! Grin

snapespeare · 15/09/2012 19:49

I do feel a bit Hmm for catwoman tbh, but fuck me, she works for barclays and there's a strong possibility that she votes Tory and I have a fucking excellent bite mark on my areola, so she can get to fuck. Grin All's fair in shagging and subterfuge. If he were ever serious about her (blah blah Pm marry me blah) then obviously it would be no dice, go! Have the best life! But just now, it's all early days, let's enjoy what it is.

snapespeare · 15/09/2012 19:52

Frenchman sounds lush!

Yogagirl17 · 15/09/2012 21:31

Date on Wednesday with tall sexy Frenchman! GrinGrin

MadameOvary · 15/09/2012 22:10

Snape sweets, the more I read the more I like Grin Speaking as fellow quirkmeister sexpot tho' you are taller and with better tits Do you feel a little unusual in some company ie made to feel a bit of a freak but entirely relaxed in others? Not just the kinksters. There are just people who "get" us, and it's lovely.

Anyway, I have to salute your ability to "do" distraction. Bites have always annoyed me. I loathe being marked, even temporarily. Prof would be told to gtf no matter how sexy his brain, and I'm gonna go out on a limb and venture that future wife might find herself a victim of Madonna/Whore complex?

Sponge Excellent news! Time for Sponge 2.0. Currently still in progress and taking her time. Smile

Loving all the news of sexy men and dates, especially as last date has gone quiet and I'm having too much fun on my own right now.

TessoftheAngels · 15/09/2012 22:40

WW hope the date is going well Smile

Yoga frenchman sounds fab, can't wait to hear all about your date!!

I'm still texting/chatting to potential fwb, he definately wants more though. Would it be wrong to go ahead with a fwb thing if he wants more? I'm happy enough to just have a shag coffee every now and then, in fact i'm craving it right now! Blush
