Things are looking up

Ah, don't really know what came over me today, but I'm suddenly in a much happier mood than I've been in for the last few weeks.

On saturday, I had a "date" with my ex (read: have a drink and catch up, no funny stuff) and: he stood me up. Stood. ME. Up. That had never, ever happened before in my entire life. OK, the man had an excuse (missing cellphone, I meen, if that were to happen to me I woulnd't have anyone's number either) but still I felt quite stupid standing on the Groenplaats for an hour thinking he was running late.

But, as expected, apologies were offered to my address in the form of a new date, in about two weeks, going to the Moeze as I've been been planning to do for... how long do we know eachother? I think it will be 6 years this year. So I will finally be able to take him there, although lately it seems to be a forgotten place where it's only population me (and D) between the hours of 23 and 01...

Today, with all of my emotions bubbling up inside me lately with nowhere to go, I confided in a collegue of mine who'd seemingly had a similar experience in her past, and when I told her in little words what was bugging me, she seemed to understand it AND have some rational things to say about it, too. It made me feel a lot better, and it dawned on me it was about time I told someone inpartial (impartial?) who could just say: what I see is this, what I think about it is that.
Just aknowledging the feeling and telling me I was dealing quite well - by actually not dealing with it at all, by letting it be and see what time will bring me ;-D

Anyway. She cheered me right up. Thanks Val ;-)
