I learned two new plants today

...and Im disgustingly proud of myself. Silly ain't it Life here is getting better - the weather's certainly an improvement. Been sunny for last few days and looks set to continue for the rest of the week. Times like this you don't mind working outdoors ('cept for all the guests milling about).

Im really rather tired today. Got no sleep Saturday night/Sunday morning - and not for the good reason neither. Went to a party wi' the boy and I was tired and grumpy and he was drunk and stroppy and we ended having the most ridiculous row. Really!!! It was utterly utterly stupid and lasted for about two hours - culminating in a yelling showdown in the street outside his house. I don't want to be one of those couples. I can't STAND those couples. It bugs me that I still think I was right PLUS I apologised for being stroppier at him than I really needed to be and he's all "blah blah". I really need to learn to walk away.

One of my flatmates is bugging me. It's really silly niggly little things but they're making me mental. He leaves all the lights on all the time and he never washes his dishes and he never locks the front door. I came downstairs last week at 10.30pm and the front door was wide open. I came home from work today and the back door was wide open. Getting used to living with strangers is hard work.

Going to the boys brothers in Essex this week. Doing the 'meet family' compulsory thing. Only cos he's making me mind!

Be back in Glasgow the weekend after for a bit. My baby sister's 21st so I thought I'd make the effort to fly up and surprise her - she was soooo mad when I told her I wasn't gonna make it And I'll get to see my puppy!!! Just hope Im fine leaving again :s
