The "Let's See How Long This Will Last" Entry

Eliza sniffed me out. She said that people who don’t write are people who are pre-occupied with other things aside from work. That’s because when we’re busy with work, we vent about work. But when we’re distracted by something MORE fun than work, family or the usual friends, we don’t have time for other things … like blogging *sheepish grin*

But this entry adheres to only half of Eliza’s predicament. The half that’s right is that I have been pre-occupied with something more interesting than work – I met someone, and as early as late June too. And the other half is that I was plain uninspired. But you don’t care about that.

So who’s he? Since I’m very pantang about these things, let’s just say that we met through friends, he’s not in advertising (tanks gawd!), we have tonnes – tonnes in common, and are physically, emotionally and intellectually attracted to each other. So far. It’s looking healthy. But before you think you want to start teasing me, perhaps you should also know that it will be futile, because at our age (we’re the same age!! finally for Addie, yayyy!!) we’re quite grounded and aren’t really made of what you’d call storybook romance sh**. Just to prove a point – as of today, we have not held hands in public. We have not said the “ILY” words to each other (I honestly don’t think I’ve reached that stage yet), and we have not declared each other as BF/GF. We don’t even see each other on weekdays, and on weekends, we only manage a couple of hours for dinner. The plus side is that we write (yeah, you read that right) to each other everyday without fail, and call each other every night before beddy-byes. Okay, it’s getting very geli talking about it. So really, if you don’t mind, this should be as far as I go. If I happened to mention him in my upcoming entries, it’s only by chance, or by relation to the topic at hand.

Since I’m not good at writing one of those mixed-topic entries, I’ll reserve my thoughts for another entry. Whenever that may be *guffaw* But at least you know that Addie’s days are much, much brighter these days… And if she don’t watch it, her weight might just soar again (just like her spirits!)
