Hello Darling,
Lol, i love your v-day and so wis it was true. I am just about to start work ( @ 12 ) really hope that today goes better than end of last week, Laura emailed me today & i just read your's aswell so am feeling a little better and will just have to remind myself of the witty & funny things that have been read this mourning.

How was your night out with TRO all went well i hope. Did anyone wink or touch TRO’s hand ? If so when's the wedding.

I had a pretty lazy day off yesterday and did'nt really want to get out off bed but did eventually. Have you seen " the stepford wife's " ? that kinda what its like down here in Sorrell ( Only all the slightly Camp People seem to be turned into robbots & suddenly have kids & a wife ) Im really scared.......

I was speaking to Deli G and your not gonna believe it… Only 15….. I feel so creepy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am so missing newtown but as you know i can catch a bus now ( even if it is a little retirement village type bus ) So next fantasty type email adventure i may be able to get on the bus to the city... And if your lucky i may even have some ice - cream.

Oh Crap i better run im gonna go have some lunch before i start work, looks like im going to the lovely " Fusion Restuarant " as its the only thing thats actually in the small country town.

Missing You Lots
Hope Your Well
Courtney Has Been Sent Away

hi there dodges ferry

by the time you read this, valentine's would have probably been and gone

but in my head here is how it happens:

5pm monday 14th feb after a few txt & voice messages,an agreement was finally made. me and nev were to meet in kings street, 7pm, in front of the bank hotel. TRO promised to join in ASAP, probably right after an art gallery exhibit. nev is very reluctant to go out and it took lots of convincing as he has been tired and stressed out at work. and my jokes about bullimia and other dramas did not make things easier. however, a dinner at mama maria's sealed the deal. that, and including the agreement to meet in newtown instead of the city. catching a bus to the city is a no go zone for nev. yes, it is after all no other than the nev who is the eternal newtown fringe dweller. i had promised that we didn't have to watch a ben stiller movie nor go anywhere near any ice cream, vomit jokes aside.

after meeting at the bank, we made sure we checked out the passing traffic, not just cars too, mind you. we turned heads and heads turned as they saw how cute we both looked. gee, that ess shirt looks good from a shop window, might buy that one day. the smell of shakespeare pies was nice but we knew to save our appetite for mama maria's chicken, pasta, cute eastern european service staff & hot diners. as usual, we had to go into hum to pick up nev's order: the latest special release britney cd with a special weight watcher sticker and a voucher to a big4 caravan park somewhere in parklea/ quakers hill or campbelltown. wow, the delta goodrem DVD was too good to let go, so i had to get it for me. as nev & i ordered at the restaurant, the latest beyonce ring tone went off. it was my phone, a ca ll from iti. iti is apparently in sydney for a couple of days and will later meet up with us. weird, as nev's jimmy barnes ring tone went off afterwards. apparently, the coke mobile was in the area and nua can meet us too...

9pm, just in front of the newtown hotel, TRO & div gets off the taxi, and right behind it was the coke mobile. nua could not persuade nah to come in and join us so he ended up swapping the drivers seat with nah, who quickly drove off to get out of the ghetto and instead stay at home to sew winnie the pooh bath mats. we all walked in together at the newtown, and iti was already there, chatting up the girls. nev's friends were there too, even the one who had left after being corrupted. i gave bindie a big hug and scratched my head wondering why her friends kept calling her kate. we all danced, laughed, drank a lot and enjoyed the show. as they played the acereje song, iko walked in with kra, yno and kca. and me and iko kept wondering, are they? are they going to?

there were later noises of cicadas but it was only laura imbruglia. she sang some carpenter songs and dedicated it to her girlfriend, casey chambers. apparently, they were soon going to move in together and live in tamworth. TRO asked laura & casey if they knew an australian girl called hissy. no no, she is not black. she is australian. apparently, hissy was laura's friend until she had a fight with laura's brother in law, daniel. hissy stole some eye make up a week ago from daniel's handbag.

we later saw will & craig in the corner and realised, the place suddenly nose dived. luckily, ian rob came in and offered to give us a lift to the shift. at the shift, we continued partying until we realised it was getting late and the music videos got scarier. as soon as they started playing some toni pearen song, we all left. and agreed to meet up again on friday night.

nev then decided to sleep over, but not until after a cigarrette on the balcony and doing the full monty for the hotel guests. there was a video playing in the lounge room and that made us rush to the bed and lights out....wow, not bad for a valentine's day...

oh well, am sure in your island, although it is heart shaped, you would not have as much fun as the one I made up. but as you know, although it may sound fictional, some of these things did happen and one day, it may happen again. whichever way, am already thankful of the past, optimistic of the future and hope that in the present, you are doing okay.

e-mail back, one day.

please?
