You treat me like I’m a princess,
I’m not used to liking that;
You ask how my day was -
You’ve already won me over in spite of me.

This song probably takes it far too far, but yes. Jenny is happy today. And expecting this not to change too soon. I am also headachey and in worrying need of a lot more coffee and should be in B&Q picking out paint colours. And it’s raining, and I should be revising, and I seem to have lost my revision notebooks, let alone the textbooks, and I have no money, and I’ve burnt my shoulders, and the optician dyed my eyes fluorescent green yesterday, and I was so tired that I did many hundreds of really stupid things, looked really silly, and annoyed myself intensely in the process because I’m hopeless at just allowing myself to make mistakes, but honestly, I really don’t mind, right now. Things are quietly looking good.
Hey Jenny
I am SOOOO happy for you and your quietly-looking-good things! You deserve that, girl! That thing you talk about, that it happens when you least expect it? Totally true. My two real relationships came along just this way.
Still, we girls do pine a lot for it, don’t we?
Another song that came right into my mind when I read your comment and now this post: Dizzy by Amanda Marshall.
*clears throat, mimimimiiiii…!*
Sometimes the love you get is free from logic
Sometimes it happens when you least expect
Sometimes I wonder why the world’s gone crazy
But I like never knowing what comes next
‘Cause I found you
Without even trying
Or lifting a finger
And then you were here
I’ll email you about DuWop asap. Thanks for offering to help me out on this one!

ps: would you like to be in my blogroll (I don’t put anyone there without asking them first)?
I shall go and look that song up now – thank you
And yes, I would be honoured to be in your blogroll – I don’t think you’re in mine but you most definitely should be – and since I’m to be in yours, you’ll be put in Mutually Assured Perusal, which means you have to think of a mousetag to describe your blog in eight words or fewer! Let me know on that one – I’m waiting on a number of mousetags from a number of people!

“and one day, one day, it will not be about trying to be okay anymore, it will just be about being okay. And that, in all it’s simplicity, is a fantastic feeling”
Good luck with the exams and such
Thank you
and there was I almost having forgotten they were actually going to happen in not much more than a month…!!
And yes, right now, I am OK, and I love it. And furthermore, I have someone with whom to be OK, and I am happy, therefore. Although this morning was bad, and I don’t know why. But I’m alright again now. Work in progress. And these days there are a lot more good moments for obvious reasons, which means that there are more bad times as well, but I think the good more than makes up for the bad. I average out to being happy, which is more than enough.
