I don’t know if you’ve ever made Treacle Tart – mixing the Golden Syrup with the breadcrumbs and lemon zest – the ‘treacle’ being so thick it’s difficult to mix and you have to force the spoon through? Or maybe you’ve been wading through water with a strong current against you?
The phone saga continues. It seems as if there are about 6 different people dealing with it – and none of them talk to each other. Then there’s the bank. Well a branch of the bank that are unable to be part of the same group as another branch of the same group.
And then there’s this computer. Running so slow as to almost grind to a halt.
And it’s snowing.
And it’s very cold.
On the plus side I’ve watched three episodes of The Tudors (series 3). It is good but one would think that everything they did at that time revolved around sex – there being naked bodies in every other screenshot.
Last night I went out with A for a couple of beers at the Birrificio – Lambrate where, apparently, they brew their own beer. I had a couple of nice beers (Porpora) – what they call red beer (a darker bitter rather than the light lager-type that the continent is famous for). Quite strong but very drinkable. It’s one of those places where it is better to book a table in advance. We were lucky and found a table but it was the only table left that had not been booked. But it is a strange thing – to have to book a table at a pub, don’t you think?
F also texted me to say he had bought me a present. I’m not sure why or what it is. He said that he hoped I didn’t already have it.
And today is our mesaversary – well the mesaversary of the day we met (which, to be honest is almost the same as the day we became a couple :-D).
And, someone who is reading this blog thinks that my writing reflects the fact that I am, ahem, gay! Really, AnaP? Well, I suppose, to some extent it would but I’m not sure that it makes that much difference. Although I do note that the people who spend a lot of their time on FB (and, in particular FV) are women or gay. I wonder if anyone has ever done a survey on that? Not that that particular point has much to do with my style of writing here but I thought it was interesting to note is all.
Anyway, it feels like I’m swimming in glue right now.
I don’t agree with the reader you’ve mentioned. Your writing doesn’t reveal anything of your sexuality. Besides, I usually don’t care if a blogger is gay or lesbian: sexual tendecies are not significant to me.
It was a comment made by them on their ‘blog’. Obviously I can’t tell and I know that readers have been confused as to who/what I am in the past. You’re right, it’s not really important but I did find it interesting and, I think, to some extent, they are, probably, right – I tend to do ‘feelings’ more than, perhaps, straight men would do.
Anyway, it’s hardly a secret for those who read closely enough. For that matter, it’s hardly a secret!
