And away with the french fries I go…
Just thought I would stop by and tell you that I won’t be on here for about 5 days or so as my friend and I are off to Paris. I completely forgot we had arranged it for this weekend (hence the reason I have no guest posters) so it came as a shock when she reminded me. I guess the escape couldn’t have come at a better time though my friend, as much as I love her, is hard to be around 24/7 as she’s so hyper and being in the mood I’m currently in. Imagine a yapping Chihuahua high on sugar and you have Vanessa lol.
In all the drama over Tom I forgot to tell you that I completed my half-marathon at the weekend. Annie Sue and I were in the second group of the evening with approximately 250 women 30 minutes ahead of us. Not only did we do the walk (if I haven’t mentioned before it was a walking half-marathon) in 3hr 45 mins but we came in the Top 50 over taking about 200 other women!! We are so pleased with ourselves and proud of each other; we had a great time and I’ll do it next year too! Although the blisters, the size of saucers I have, might have something to say about that!
And how do I feel? Hmmmm. Well I’m barely sleeping so look like death personified and I’ve barely eaten since Sunday so all in all, not that great. I know I’ll get over Tom and it’ll only serve to make me stronger but for now, it really fucking hurts. I know; how melodramatic of me it is to be upset over a guy I’d never even met but I’m not even sure it’s all about Tom anymore either though he makes up most of it. I think it’s just a combination of everything…delayed grieving for my relationship, the realization that my friends have left, the uncertainty that my life now has; everything.
I guess Karma really is a bitch isn’t it?! I broke Dan’s heart so a little ‘universal payback’ in the form of Tom was no doubt due. Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas once said that her drug addiction was the hardest boyfriend to break up with; I think I can apply the same to depression.
Until next time…(how do you say that in French?!)

A little recooperating in Paris should do nicely!! You’ll come back refreshed after having fun times with your friend. Things will look different.
You forgot about a trip to Paris? That is impressive.
Go and have fun. Let your friend know you might need some space and honestly take it if you need to. Relax. Enjoy yourself. It’s probably the break you need.
You FORGOT you were going to Paris?
I hate you.
Have a blast.
Kim – recooperating in Paris? There’s no time for that lol. I think I need another holiday to get over it!
JPP/LiLu- I didn’t forget Paris…technically. What I meant was that I knew it was coming up but forgot it was so soon especially after the 13 miles of walking just last weekend! Paris was amazing but a rollercoaster of emotions…I’ll post tonight or tomorrow; need to catch up on some serious sleep first!
