(no subject)
Imn the year between my mothers death and him meeting my mother (confusing, I know), my dad had a few girlfriends. As I was quite young in those years, I don't remember that much about those years, save for bit of memories, which are stung together in random order and with random people who may or may not have actually been there at the time.
Anyway, the daughter of one of them contacted me yesterday on Hyves (a Dutch facebook/myspace clone). Ever since I'm feeling rather strange. A flood of memories came over me since, mostly triggered by her memories (she's 3 year older than I am, so she has a clearer memory of the time). I'm remembering things about my childhood which I had forgotten about, I barely slept yesterday (which is not a good thing with overtime and busy workdays), which also explains why I'm posting this at nearly 4AM!)
I'm not sure whether or not to tell my father she contacted me. It will probably be a while before I make up my mind about that. At the moment I say "no", but that might change when I wake up tomorrow morning.
One good thing about this all is I've decided to go back to where I grew up during my holiday when I'm at home for a full week before going to Greece (aaahh bless, holiday, just 4 weeks away!). Something I've been planning to do for years, but have been avoiding for the same number of years.
Anyway, I'm spending the better part of this weekend with my sister and her family as she invited me over a few weeks ago. Sunday evening it's EN second to last day of freedom, as his girlfriend from the Philippines will be living with him from Tuesday on. So drinks are in order. Then it's back to the hell that's called work, just during these few weeks. I actually enjoy working there alot, but with too many people being on holiday it's been a tough couple of weeks so far, with at least two more ahead. After that, most people are returning from their holidays.
