Friday 16th May 2008 – Is it cool if I collapse in a heap right about now?...

I am exhausted beyond belief, which I guess is nothing unusual for me.  I have had a very long and tiring week and to make matters worse I have to work tomorrow and I am dreading it!  There’s nothing much I can do about it. 

I had the lovely pleasure of having my good friend Leah around for company tonight and even though it was a quick visit it was ace catching up again.  I opened the door and there stood Leah holding two cups of steaming hot strong coffee, which she had bought from one of my very many favourite coffee shops.  God love ya Leah! 

Our plans initially for tonight were to hit some gallery a friend of hers had an art exhibition showing but I think the way I sounded on the phone and my actual appearance may have frightened the life out of her.  You see Aunty Mable is visiting me once again (for those of you unfamiliar with Aunty Mable – she is my monthly reminder that I am indeed a woman).

Leah walked in and exclaimed that I looked like shit and I was not going anywhere.  I love that Leah knows when I am dying and understands that I need to stay close to home.

Anyways, we talked away like the maniacs we are and I had to go through the ManBoy and AJ bullshit I am lugging around and it was nice to talk to someone who knows me, the real me, who knows why I am the way I am and I don’t have to continuously defend my beliefs and who doesn’t keep reminding me that I am an angry woman.  

After Leah left I literally just lay on the sofa using poor Elvis as a hot water bottle and feeling relief that I can finally just relax in my little slice of heaven and not speak to anyone.

With that, my bed and Kafka await me!
