Coffee with Paul went well yesterday. I was neurotic beforehand but chatting was easy. We talked about books and travelling and things. The only problem is that at times I felt like I was on a date with my brother-in-law. I like him, he's nice, but I just don't really want to date him. The decade age gap is a bit of a big thing for me. So I don't know what to do. He text me this morning, just a casual hello, but I didn't reply till tonight. I've never been in this position before I don't know what the protocol is.
Tomorrow I'm going up the Blue Mountains to the Leura Shakespeare Festival with Jen. Leura is one of my favourite "country" towns. My sister got married there and it's just so picturesque. I'm hoping to pick up some things while I'm there. We're seeing a matinee performance of A Midsummer Night's Dream and it's going to be brilliant.
It seems like this summer is never going to end. It's either so scorchingly hot it feels like when you open the oven and that blistering heat just rolls over you, or so humid that you're constantly covered in a light film of sweaty stickiness. It doesn't help that I missed a big portion of winter when I was overseas.
socialness,
summer,
complications of the heart
