 Anyway, I'm going over to my mum's tonight because she's
making a casserole. She always makes too much and it's just an
excuse to get me over. I'm quite looking forward to it tonight,
though, because with the mood I'm in I could do with cheering up. I
am supposed to be going to a weird job tomorrow. It's a girl who
claims she can read people's minds. I can't wait. I'll tell you
about it on Wednesday.
    Until then,

    Hi guys
     
    I'm still wound up after the past few days.
It's weird how before Nick came to work alongside me I was quite
happy to be the only one doing my job; but now that Nick has been
off I realize that I miss having someone to discuss things and to
share my workload with.
    I went to that mind-reader's house the other
day and I must admit, she was really strange, but she wasn't a
proper mind reader. She had a set of those cards scientists use to
test if people are psychic; you know the ones: the star, the
square, the wavy lines and the cross and so on. Well, she was
really accurate with this and she only got two out of fifty wrong
and unless she's found a way to cheat, I'd say this was proof that
she does have some sort of second sight. She gave me the creeps
too; she had these dark brown eyes that seemed to look into your
soul and I found myself trying to clear my mind but all I could
think about was how weird she was. I don't know if she could
"mind-read" this or not but she was the silent type and only
answered yes or no to most of my questions. She was only thirteen
though and so I expect she was a little shy. It was her mum who'd
arranged for me to come round and experiment on her so I don't
think she was the least bit impressed. I couldn't wait to get out
of there - she reminded me of that girl who had the lead part in
"The Ring" and I couldn't relax all night because I half expected
her to come bursting out of the telly any minute. I ended up
calling round Erin's but she was out (either that or she was
avoiding me still).
I'm going out with Lila tonight. It's her colleague's birthday and
we're going out for an Indian. I love Korma. Apart from that
there's nothing much else going on this week. I hope Nick is back
tomorrow. I'm starting to miss him. I will let you know if anything
happens tonight, but I doubt much can happen in a curry house.
    Until next time,

    Hi guys,
     
    I'm so glad this week is finally over. It's
been tough. I've felt rotten, moody and I've been missing Nick (I
never thought I would say that!)
    First, I want to tell you all about our night
at the curry house. We've been going for years and we're on first
name terms with all the staff. We have a laugh with them all and
they love us so much that they always give us extra-large helpings
and extra bits on the side (naan bread, extra dips etc).
    Anyway, I had the creamiest korma ever and it
was so delicious I asked Mandeep for a top-up and he brought me
more, free of charge! I know you must think I'm a greedy cow, but I
was hungry and I'd lost some weight with my illness and I needed
building up again. I am telling you this for a reason...a group of
guys at the next table were watching with interest at my huge
portions and, at first, I thought they were going to make some
abusive comment but instead one of them came over to me and said,
"It's so good to see a woman who loves her food. Will you come out
to dinner with me on Friday?" I couldn't believe what was
happening. This sort of thing usually only happens in chick-lit
movies, doesn't it? Obviously I said yes. Well, not obviously, if
he were a minger then I would have said no, but he was quite cute
in a boy-next-door kind of way. He had short auburn hair and a
spattering of freckles and huge brown eyes like a puppy dog's. He
didn't look like a serial killer, put it that way. He's called
Luke. I can't wait for my date with him tonight. Lila said that he
is probably a feeder too, but I don't care right
