Best interview ever

Today I had, at very short notice, my best interview for a long time. It was for a degree course and although they didn't say I was on it I left with very positive comments from the guys.

The course is work related and strangely the interview questions were almost but not quite the same as the questions on a job interview I totally messed up. This time my answers were direct and to the point and more than that I knew the answers unlike in the job interview when I went blank.

It has been suggested that the difference may have been as simple as who was asking the questions, which is true.

On the down side, last night whilst talking about the similarities between the two guys who I had long term relationships with I had to face facts that the likelihood of the second having been playing away is high and that I should've listened to my intuition about that at the time.

I've since had a look for the photos that had upset me most about that incident and found all the photos that had originally upset me have since been deleted, that alone suggests that there is no smoke without fire, after all if the photos are/were innocent then why is there need to delete them?

My mum was also admitted to hospital last night, this is a direct result of her chemotherapy. I've since spoken to her and she actually sounds better than she has done for ages, thing that upset me most was until I called her this morning nobody had thought to call me and tell me she was in hospital.

Retail therapy and a new party frock


Over the past few weeks I seem to have gone on a spending frenzy , apart from needing to replace items that were lost or broken I've been buying things I wanted rather than needed, I have a new watch and a 4GB pen drive now as well as other items.

In a weeks time I will be going to a work mates leaving party, seeing as this is the first time I will be going out without having to worry about what time I get in or how my partner will react if I'm late I decided I needed a new party frock (to go with my many others hanging in the wardrobe).

The photo you see to the right is my new party frock and I just wanted to show it off to everyone who won't have the pleasure of seeing me on the night.

I've already had amazing feed back from the girls and the only guy who has seen it kept very quiet with just a small flicker of a grin which he may be able to keep from his mouth but always reaches his eyes.

This is the most frivolous purchase I have made in a long time, egged on by a friend saying if I want it get it (would've been nicer if it was 'if you want it here's my credit card' that's a joke people) I out bid another 29 ebayers to whom I apologise but hey, I fell in love with it. Paid well over what I would normally pay as well.

Lonely Fairy by darkredrose

Just a quick note on this one, I chose this image mainly for my current mood although that isn't actually one of loneliness; I think the image is more than just loneliness. This image also jumped out at me because of the wings, my old screen name on a forum I have recently been banned from and which I used to be a moderator of was obsidianbutterfly.

Cure for shyness

Personal revelations

I realised yesterday that for so long I had been missing simple things like kissing, proper full on passionate kissing and being able to simply caress another person. I was recently told that I don't express my feelings.

It's true I don't communicate my feelings that well verbally but as soon as I can touch and caress my feelings seem very much understood and I find it easier to verbalise them as well. Yeah okay that's not good on any level but an intimate level but it was from an intimate view point the criticism came.

Saturday morning I almost fainted in fact I did faint and it was only for the fact that someone was right behind me and able to lower me into a chair that I did not hit the floor. This is the first time I've ever fainted and sadly only reinforced to the other person there that I was not eating enough. Having never fainted before I found myself wanting to just let go and then as I did there was this voice in my ear calling my name in rather a panicked tone and then just for an instance I debated on answering or not.

Whilst talking later about weight and how I wasn't actually on a diet the one thing I had said a few weeks ago was said back to me and I instantly argued it and at the same time felt relaxed, I was told that at my age I shouldn't expect to be the same size and shape that I was when I was younger and the added bit was that I looked great just as I was. Personally the only thing I try to avoid is weight gain beyond a certain weight. That I do not see as unhealthy, of course I would love to loose weight and be as I was when I was younger but I am not unhappy with my current weight.

This however none is not criticism of my previous partner, it is me finding my way again through reflection, hmm yes it's a little personal for such a public forum I agree but it's your choice if you wish to read it or not, and that goes for my previous partner too, you choose to view my blog on a daily basis after all.

A difference of views

Prolicide the killing of offspring and infanticide the killing of an infant from birth to 12 months; the killing of ones own child is something that most people can’t get their head around.

In staff group sessions my co-workers have often said how upset they get about this issue if we have a patient who has committed such a crime, for myself I appear not to be effected by their crime to such degrees. Maybe it’s because I don’t have my own child to sit and look at and wonder how a mother could harm her own.

There have been two cases that I have had contact with that has really touched me; both mothers have attempted to kill themselves after the event yet both cases were so different. One was a
