There's more, but you'll have to wait

So I've been back home for a week now, and I've done quite a bit, spent quite a lot and seen many.

One thing is for sure, it's good to be back home. The stresses of work and flatmates are a distant memory, yet soon to arrive over that horizon once more. Yet the one thing that I cannot stop thinking about is the next time that I'm going to see my girl. She sounds as though she's having a rough time of it, the worst part being that I can do fuck all to help her out. It's going to be tough, but we'll work it out. Keep smiling L :)

So after my bout in hospital on Christmas Eve morning, the doctor's have decided that I suffer from mini-strokes. This is not good.

Anyway, it's been good seeing everybody, catching up with people that I haven't seen in a year or so, there are too many to mention, but you know who you are.

I'm gonna keep this blog quite short, I'll add more before I head back down to work next week.

I hope all my readers had a good Christmas and I wish you all the best for the new year.

One day in January

It began fast, woolly hat and chit-chat
How long would it last, talking 'bout this 'n' that?
Drinks they went through, people they spoke to
Just a distraction for the attraction between those two
Needing to eat
No meat for her, just veggie burger
What's this about? Taking money out
A four digit number, will she remember?
A debt owed, more drinks followed
Just go, leave us alone
They disappeared, fear for
Scenario unprepared
An awkward time, just the sister
It's fine, keep talking
She walked in, looking good
Thinking he would
Take her places, see new faces
Re-tracing their paces, her undone laces
Tripping everywhere
Her eyes of blue and long blonde hair
A connection made
But the end of the day
He took the risk, gave her a kiss
They never looked back, the girl from Sask
Is still with me
Because of one day in January.
