i am a teenage valley girl

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

A friend writes “When did you give me your mobile number?”

“About two weeks ago,” I answer. “Why? Oh, wait - the bill’s turned up, hasn’t it? How many texts on it? No, don’t tell me. Oh go on, tell me…”

One hundred and Two. In a little less than a month.

Holy shit! Why, in my fifth decade, have i turned into a teenage girl? I’ll be using the words ‘he’s soooooo dreamy‘ next. But not to describe any of the remains of the BB household.

Loved the way, on last night’s ‘prisoner’s dilemma’ section of Big Brother they kept repeating the rules, and saying “Do you understand” and I’m thinking (and eventually Kat says): “Yes, we all see Golden Balls. Move on!”

hahaha

Msm at home, from here on in, for x-factor, bb and all televisual b1tching. I mean, there’s a limit to how many texts a boy can decently send to someone before it’s termed stalking.

But, that said, there are some communications that simply  have to be made. texts like:  

  • kat to win.
  • kat 4 evah!!
  • kat to represent us in eurovision. in a silver spandex jumpsuit. Oh wait, that was verduchka, wasn’t it. Ein Dzwei Drei. TANCE!

Yesterday’s timing: 33 minutes and 50 seconds.

That’s how long it took yours truly, at a fairly constant and comfortable pace, to run 5 kilometers.

Why was yours truly running 5km on a Wednesday afternoon?

Because in October, D and I will be running our first 5k. Hardly an Olympiad, but, for us, a big deal.

Wish us well. And pray my speed gets up. I don’t want to be over 30 mins when everyone’s telling me I should be doing it in a little over 20…

no more

Just in case any of you were wondering, they’ve cleared up now…

Thanks
