Me getting in to stupid situations…

Well, after the drama of the whole Lydia/DC thing a few other events have also happened.

Rich (the fireman friend of my gay-ish ex, Phil) continues to text me every day and… I am not yet sick of him! We have nice lil chats but I really can’t see when/how he would move the whole thing on from ‘just friends’ to something more. Hmm…and no, I’m not doing it. He’s lovely but God knows what, if anything, will happen there.

Nic came round to mine on Thurs for drinks and I told her about DC, it’s good to have someone to tell because otherwise I may well go mad. Not that she is a particularly good listener but nevertheless. I also have the biggest cold sores ever known to man, which I have concluded is down to the large dose of hormones that I took in the MAP. My face would make a great condom advertisement, I had to go to work yest and Sat looking like a scabby leper/the elephant man. My supervisor found it hilarious to joke that I was scaring off the customers.

I went for coffee with Soph on Fri and told her that me and DC kissed but that’s it. She seemed very supportive and said that if I want to sleep with him or whatever I should go for it but only if it’s what I want as it’s not up to him. She also displayed great talent for writing fairytales when she decided that DC is cheating because I’m the one for him. I decided that (since he has a track record for cheating) he’s cheating because he is panicking that he’s settling down.

On Saturday it was pouring when I woke up so I rang a taxi to take me to work. It got here early so as I rushed around it was waiting outside and as I ran to get in it I noticed that DC had his car door open, didn’t see him but then I did look away pretty quick. I got to work etc. and then got out on to the tills and then saw DC waving at me from the shop floor! Geek! I didn’t think he’d actually come and see me because he never bothered before! I went bright red and kept looking out for him but he must have left. When I went on my lunch I was with some tw*t who goes to the gym with me and DC (he’s a tw*t because he thinks that by virtue of the fact that he’s male he knows more about bikes and training than me and that because I’m female I haven’t got a clue.) He said to me, ‘There was a guy from the gym in earlier,’ so I, forgetting about DC, said, ‘Really?’ So the d*ck said, ‘Yeh, the one that waved at you.’ Well what was the point in telling me if I’d clearly seen him?!! Well the weird little boy then kept going on about how ripped DC is and how big he is (I was trying not to giggle!) but it amused me slightly.

Saturday night I didn’t fancy going out because I look deformed thanks to my cold sores so Nic came round again for one drink and drove home. She’s an exciting one she is. Well after she’d gone I had a text, which I presumed would be Rich but it was in fact a certain disgraced ex fireman…Philip! I shall document our exchange as it is even more explosive (Heat-speak lol!) than the last time!

Phil: “hi Lyds, hope this ain’t too late lol but everytime i try send you message on facebook it freezes. x”

Lyds: “Lol, you and facebook don’t get on do you?! Nope it’s not too late, hope you’re ok x”

Phil: “Nah cant work it  Didnt want u to think i was ignorin u. am back up north now, shortterm renting house. You always up late arent u lol? x”

Lyds: “Yep I am, i have too much energy apparently! What are you doing now? Do you think you’ll stay there permanently? x”

Phil: “Yeh u defo got energy!  if a fire job comes up here then ill stay. If not then prob venture away lol. U still enjoyin uni? x”

Lyds: “Sounds good, i bet it’s nice being closer to your family too? I enjoy uni, last week I passed my first bike test so I’m saving up for one now  x”

Phil: “Awesome well done! U deserve it. Yeh its nice, miss home sometimes tho, and gettin in that hot tub with u remember?  x”

Lyds: “Thanks, i was so proud! I suppose it must be difficult away from your friends, is Lee a dad now? And yep i remember the jacuzzi lol x”

Phil: “Yeh his missus had the baby. I wanna say this cos ur a cool lass  i mite be bi, but i still think about u. I loved your gawjus body, u dnt mind me sayin do u? x”

Lyds: “Oh bless him, that’s nice! I don’t mind you saying it – it does confuse me a little for many reasons, but thanks! x”

Phil: “Its been a crazy few years for me in many ways, but I just wanted 2 say ur a great girl. it still confuses me too! defo keep in touch, prob not on facebook tho! x”

Lyds: “Yeh I understand that, i’m confused that you’re saying this because of how everything ended with us. But yes, definitely keep in touch!”

Phil: “Cool, be nice to give you a ring sometime and have a proper catchup. Nite Lyds, and be safe on the bike-like me in a fire engine!  x”

Lyds: “Ok, that’d be good. Night phil x”

Oh the drama!! And then yesterday at work just before we started closing Joe and Ian came in! I hate people coming in to work, for some reason I end up shaking even after they’ve gone! It was nice to see them but as I say I prefer seeing them separately and when we’re on equal terms not with one of us looking like a tw*t at work and with huge cold sores. Hmm. Anyway, that’s my little catch-up.
