give him a chance and see how it goes. I have to go and get dressed
now but I will update you all on Monday.
     
    Enjoy your weekend.

    Hi guys
     
    What an anti-climax today is compared to my
weekend. Firstly, it doesn't exactly put you in a good mood when
your alarm goes off and it still feels like the middle of the
night. I'm sure humans are made for hibernation this time of year.
It's even worse when you realize that it's dark because it's
throwing it down with rain. At least my car windscreen isn't
frozen, which is the only plus point. I particularly don't want to
go into work today because I found out Luke only wanted to go out
with me because he recognized me from my stupid newspaper column
and he wanted to tell me all about his weird collection of exotic
pets. I told him all he had to have done was to call my boss and we
would have come round and done a piece on it, but he said he was
too shy to do this. I had to listen while he went on and on about
his snakes and his lizards and his tarantulas (yawn yawn!); not
exactly the best subject if you're trying to impress a girl is it?
I realized half way through our date that he wasn't interested in
me romantically at all - that's why I ordered the biggest steak and
chips going (well, I didn't need to impress him, did I?)
    Anyway, I don't want to go into work today
because Luke is coming in this afternoon to speak to my boss and to
see if we can do an interview with him. I am going to suggest Nick
goes as I don't want to be anywhere near anything that remotely
resembles a spider. I am just glad that things didn't work out
romantically between Luke and me. Can you imagine if he had asked
me back to his place and got his pets out! That would have been it!
It's better for it to end before it's even started.
    It looks as though I'm going to be spending
Christmas and New Year as a single girl for the fourth year
running. Either I'm being too picky when it comes to men or I'm
attracting the wrong sort. I think it's the latter, though how I
can start to attract the right sort, God only knows. I'm going to
make it one of my New Year's resolutions, I think. I suppose I'd
best get ready for work. I'm hoping that I can get another job and
be out of the office before Luke and his slimy entourage
arrive.
I'll catch up with you on Wednesday, but until then...

    Hi guys
     
    All I can say today is "Agghhhhh!" Have you
ever had one of those days when nothing goes right? I think I must
have walked under a ladder or something because my luck stinks.
People who say you make your own luck annoy me because if I made my
own luck I would have a five-bed-roomed mansion, a limo, a size 10
body and be married to Jonny Depp. Instead I've had to put up with
a bad hair day. I woke up this morning with strands sticking up
like some sort of hedgehog and even the GHDs wouldn't tame them. I
noticed a huge spot on the end of my nose which is now starting to
ooze yellow goo. My run of bad luck continued when I dropped my cup
of tea all over my skirt and had to go change and put a wet tea
towel on my knee to stop the scalding and then when I got to work
and parked in my usual parking space I ended up standing in some
dog muck which some annoying person hadn't picked up (and what was
a dog doing in the car park of my local newspaper anyway! Unless
someone did it on purpose to get back at us or something.)
    I got in work and was sent to see an old
biddy who claimed her cat had special powers (the fifth psychic cat
this year!) but all it could do was stare constantly. When I got
back to my car to drive home I found out I'd left my lights on and
so the battery was dead so Nick ended up having to jump start it,
which didn't please him and then I got home to find out that my
toilet is blocked! Aggghhhh! My mum says bad things come in threes.
I wish! Sorry for moaning but it seems the best thing for me to do
now is to have a
