Bridget Cragg’s Diary
Monday
Interesting turn of events last night- a
Google search on an old flame’s name brought up, after a while, the fact
that she now teaches at a university not all that far from these parts.
Haven’t summoned up the courage to try e-mailing her yet. Much gazing at
The Lovely S today but no conversation.
Tuesday
Still haven’t tried contacting the old
flame- let’s call her Sospan Fach, if only because she’s Welsh.
Otherwise still gazing hopefully at The Lovely S. There are
absolutely no suitable candidates at the Russian class, so that’s a dead
loss.
Wednesday-Friday
Nothing of any significance- I have the
Complete Buffy box set so I don’t need a life or real people in it.
Saturday & Sunday
Spent most of the weekend in the flat,
although I did see my friend the herbalist at the farmers’ market where
she has a stall. I’ve kind of admired her from afar for a couple of years,
but having forked out for my Relaxation Tea, I was brushed off with a "see
you" rather than any attempt at conversation.
Monday
Good conversation online with
California Dreaming last night, which produced the unforced admission
that she thinks I’m cute. Unfortunately I’m also broke, so that’s not
going anywhere anytime soon. The Lovely S has been moved in work
today so I no longer see her when I go to file stuff away- it does however
have the effect of making the moments when our eyes meet more deliberate.
