Hey Lisa, if I was nearer than about 8 hours away, I'd go to the piccies with you !
Thanks for your encouraging words on my thread, I do feel better actually. I'm busy writing my novel right now! I forgot to answer you on that, its about me and him and I started at the bomb and now I;ve gone back to the beginning, 10 years ago. Should be carthartic, even if a pile of poo! (I'm not that bad a writer though!
Would you consider doing it? Reckon its therapeutic (you too T !?) You just need to register at http://www.nanowrimo.org then write 1670 ish words a day (takes me an hour tops) in Word, by 31st November to get the 50,000 then upload it to their site to get it verified. Cool!
Ohh, like the dress! I couldnt wear that, not without prosthetics anyway! It wouldnt have anything to 'wrap' around. Any plans to email H and tell him you wont be on that work email anymore, or have you got some time left in the office yet?

Thanks for the link- I'll definitely check it out. You're a good writer- I can't wait to read yours!
I accidentally posted my post before I'd finished writing it. There's a liunk there now. I got a red dress and 3 tops in the sale- the shop is a specialist shop so their clothes are usually pretty expensive, but you can get good discounts in the sale.
I don't have any plans to e-mail H yet- I'm on three months notice so theres' a bit of time yet. 3 months is pretty standard for scientists, I think because there aren't many scientists or jobs about so recruiting/getting redeployed takes that much longer.
I'm really glad you're feeling a bit better. It IS such a shame we're 8 hours apart (although maybe only 4/5 by car?). it'd be fun to go an ogle Daniel Craig together!

Another message from CEO asking another little question....
You know what? Today is a big day, astrologically.. its a big seachange going on... be brave Lisa, ask him if he wants to go see the film with you! DO IT! If you pyschically (sp!?) let go of your H and do this, you never know what will happen. Thats what someone else told me (cant explain, but it sounded good!)
The universe has been chucking you this man for a reason and I am amazed he is texting you today, I think this is BIG.
PLEASE! Or.. ask him if he fancies a quick drink once he's got his work done? Go on !
PS: Just bashed out another 1,500 words, its easy! You better get started quick though, as you need to do 5,000 by 3rd Nov !
You make me smile! It IS funny that CEO has been put before me- I can see that too. When I first met him (can't remember if I posted this before), but I was really shocked because in walked this guy who I'd imagined I'd end up with when I was a little girl. It's possibly more to do with the Clark Kent resemblance than anything (I had a big thing for Superman when I was younger!).
On the other hand, I think the e-mails today are maybe more of a reflection that he has a meeting tomorrow and is stressing about questions he might get asked. He lives an hour away so I'd have to make a special trip to see him, and that makes me think I'd seem a bit overly keen if I was to ask him for a drink? It's not so much that I'm tied to my H that's stopping me, but more that CEO is a pursuer. He's pursued me before when he's wanted to and I think he'll do it again under the right circumstances. Also he knew I might be in his neighbourhood earlier today but didn't invite me to do anything with him.....
Seriously, 5000 by tomorrow? I'm not sure I could manage that! I'm not even sure I can think of a good topic to write on- I think it'd have to be something not H related as otherwise I might get depressed. Maybe I could write a story about developing drugs. That'd be a jolly exciting read (not!).
Oh, maybe I could write a flirting manual and illustrate with short stories from real life!
It doesnt matter what yuo write and you can catch up later in the month, its just roughly equates to 1670 a day I think. I finished chapter 2 earlier and it was amazingly cathartic. I'm thniking of sending it to my ex for Christmas, finished, dedicated to him, with the words "Be happy".
Maybe I'll call it "The Greener Grass"
Ok, well, I can see why you wouldnt have wanted to ask him for a drink! I was just trying... Al x

I know you would come up with the a wonderful title to a book.... just like you do with your threads.
I hope you find a job very soon. And I hope that no matter where you land that you maintain a friendship with CEO. I think the two of you sound very good for each other (even if only at a friendship level).
