Wacko friends...

Now, married life is not that different to what it was before.
What changes are friends. You become someone who seems to be affected by the plague. They are 34 (i'm32) and still want fun nights out, they cannot commit or IF they can, it's to something a bit wacko like buddhism, bio-dance, tantric meditation. I just called my best friend,because I was pissed off with my other best friend for making a date with me and then cancelling...and she goes...I can't talk, I am with my companions of faith....
I know this is not politically correct...so please forgive me. But after the umpteenth call from these friends, moaning and whining about their dreadful love-life, job, siblings etc... the ONE time I call...they cannot talk because they're with their "companions of faith" or because they are pretending to be a tree or something. It brings me down...
It really does bring me down because...let's face it... if it worked...if it did them any good.... then at last I would know it's all worth something. But it's not! Because if they're chanting so they won't fall fanny-first into their next love affair (causing the hasty escape of their pursuited one), next thing you'll hear is that they're in tears because whilst they were chanting and praying to NOT do such a thing, they met someone who was oh-so charming and "balanced" (yes, that's the word, as if you could tell after ONE hour whether someone is balanced, for Pig's sake!) that they just had to check out what they were like in the sack... Always a mystic experience....tillthey get dumped all over again.... only to get even more wrapped up in the soul searching shenanigans.
I think I need a rational friend with her feet on the ground....
But as my father once toldme "you only seem to attract wackos". So there I go.
It's Thursday night, my hubby is out playing "role games" (let's not go there. Luckily sex does not seem to be involved as the members of this game are balding, single, flabby, unemployed men in their late 30ies (so then why is my huabnd among them?????), my friend has cancelled our girls night in, my other friend is with her companions of faith (whom she is probablu shagging, though not all at the same time, I hope)....well it definitely sounds wacko.

I am married

I will not go into detail now about the fact that I have just recently married (though not legally, according to this extraordinary country) and that I have just returned froma honeymoon in the Maldives and Japan. Basically I am just checking this whole blog-thing out.I am not sure as to how it works and if anyone else, apart from me, will be reading this.
Ok so this is Autumn and I want to start my life over....
I want to make it something beautiful....
Can I make it? Can I manage?
