No, your heart cannot think... It's sole job is to pump blood around your body... It is an organ - like your liver or kidneys, it performs a function for your body, it is not some romantic daftie controlling what you do. (Oh! The romance!!!)

It would be lovely to see mr60. I know it would, but the longer term consequences of seeing him might set back any recovery- & that's an issue. (& I know I'd see him in a flash if I were you. .

Oh, just got a text from the prof. 1st since Monday, lets see how long it takes to descend into filth.

No one to see Looper with because my female friends will only go see chick flicks (which I like but not exclusively), the only single men I know are on OKC and would feel too weird to go to the cinema with someone else's husband. My XH would have liked Looper but I would rather get my eyeballs tattooed than sit through a film with him. (Just about the only thing I miss about him is that we had the same taste in stuff like that and would love to do things together than none of our friends were interested in)

Snape - once again you are right. I feel I've come a long way since August, I'm feeling pretty strong & positive (which is part of what the tat was all about) but seeing him probably would set me back. If I'm being honest, I just want to see him, hang out, kiss...but I know that offering sex is what's going to get him interested at the moment. Shit - the more I write, the worse it sounds. Ok, well not going anywhere for the next few days anyway....will see what the week brings maybe it will bring a gorgeous man knocking on my door .

really yoga - only chick flicks, fuck. what limited viewing habits. can you not ask on your fb? or, just go on your own?

also - are you offering sex to try and keep him interested in the hope he might change his mind?
its not goingto work, and tbh, he if he goes for that he is showing he has no respect for you and you wouldnt want to be in a relationship with somone like that anyway.

I'd go with you yoga if I lived nearer.... Jus as well I don't watch chick-flicks (outside the safety of my own home) my problem is opposite - no-one to see a good chick flick with! Next planned film is skyfall with PM, but that is post-birthday so we won't be talking by then.....

Ugh, have invited the ex for Xmas at behest of his parents. That'll be delightful...

watch - I will just go on my own, that's the plan (can you pick up single men at the cinema?).

As for Mr60, will have to mull this all over. When I put it down in black & white it's so obvious. Sigh...

Snape - ugh, you're a better woman than I for inviting your ex for Xmas!

It's potentially awful, really. He told me his gf was pregnant on Xmas eve (many years ago...). Then tried to shag me... I used to drive kids down to his on Xmas day then drive 25 miles home in tears... Then there was the Xmas I dropped the DCs off, watched them open over-expensive presents I could never afford, that they had to keep at his house.... Then the kids phoned in tears on Boxing Day because their dad & OW2 were too hungover to get out of bed and they hadn't eaten. I went to get them next day (couldn't drive due to tonsillitis meds and feeling shit and couldn't afford a taxi...) & the house was a bomb site, ex and OW2 still in bed and he wasn't 'allowed' to see them for 6 months after that....

...and now that OW2 has left and taken their DD abroad, he'll be alone at Xmas, probably in a fragile mental state and it's probably easier to keep an eye on him when he's here... But he better be on his absolute best behaviour or I'll stab the fucker. Metaphorically.

DCs are all delighted and I'll have to weather January being full of 'I miss daaaaaaaaaaad' s.

Oh snape, that is pretty dreadful. Hopefully in your own place you will at least be more in control of things but will try and remember to send you lots of soothing vibes when the time comes! x

It will be ok. I will be a beneficent nigella and be extremely calm... Although DD has just informed me it's Boxing Day dinner at my ex sister in laws with her three smaller children...and the ex in laws and the ex. That will be somewhat tiring --and I won't be able to drink as I'll need to drive. Ugh. Dry Christmas.

Sounds awful Snape :( I must be in the minority - I get on well with my ex (ATM!) and have just invited him to spend the third Christmas with me and the DCs. We get on so well that I made the mistake of getting rather toooo merry on my birthday last January and ended up in bed with him! (Made totally sure DC didn't find out!) Complicated our lives for a while as he though that meant we were getting back together. Like him, can't live with him!!

Snape sympathies that sounds pretty hellish :(

I couldn't bear to spend more than an hour in the Evil Ex's company, let alone the whole of Xmas. Thankfully the feeling is mutual - and extends to his whole family, so I luckily never have to see ANY of them either :) The DSs go over there on Xmas Day, but get sent back early evening as ex-MIL doesn't cook Xmas dinner ever ...one of the many weird things about Ex's family!

It'll be fine. I'll get a migraine after doctor who, go to bed and go on Mumsnet read. :) I kind of get on with him, he can be quite funny and charming when he isn't being a selfish, self absorbed fuckmuppet. :)

snape Fuckmuppet?! Lol!!!

It's date night da da da da it's date night ...

Getting a bit excited/butterfly-y! Only half an hour or so to get ready, one child in the shower, other child in the bath. Babysitter can only come til 10.30 so it looks like its just a drink tonight

Date night!!! Have best

The notebook is finished. Thank fuck. :)

Will post final pages a bit later... Edge of your seats please, thank you. :)

pie - wankbadger is also a paticular favourite :)

snape - whats up with the prof, are you still poking him?

Poked the prof a grand total of twice, he's been away in America and busy with work, I hear from him intermittently at the moment, I CBA TBH...

can understand why really.

lets see those last notebook pages then...

What about cocklodger -that's a good one!

Snape, woohoo on the notebook. Can't wait to see. I am trying to make evening plans all week to stop myself from doing something silly. Failing that I will hopefully spend the week catching up on Private Practice and Greys Anatomy and eating M&Ms. At least that's the plan...

(Also trying to decide if I can be bothered to reply to NewYork boy on OKC)

Western, have a great date.

Awaiting notebook links...
