Return of the mack....

...or precisely the ex!

Last weekend, sick as a dog and really feeling sorry for myself, I was cleaning my apartment, shopping up a storm and thinking...yes...thinking.  I know, I know, sometimes that is a dangerous thing for a RSG!

Since I had time to actually slow down (well was kind of forced too - as everyone was occupied by the HK Sevens), I started thinking about what I needed to do and what I hadn't done.  My thoughts strayed to my emails and letter writing.  

As I come from a family where my Dad was a 'happy surprise' a lot of my relatives are older and the internet and computer are not apart of their vocabulary, let alone their household!  My train of thought then went to David, a guy that I was seeing when I was in Wuxi and who came to visit me at Christmas a year and half ago.  

We had a great connection but as with the perks (or downfalls), of living overseas he was here for a short time and then returned home to finish his study.  We kept in contact but it was a struggle as feelings kind of got in the way and we felt it better to let things alone.  We have the odd contact every so often but I hadn't replied to his last email from a while ago and remembering, thought 'Crap', I must email, even sending a message to my school account to remember to do so.  Obviously thoughts were lead to other places in my cloudy, foggy, sickness induced brain and fond memories were thought of -it's inevitable, I am a girl after all!

Imagine my surprise, when the very next day I received an email from him, before I had even had time to send one to him, talk about in tune.  It stated that he was in Brazil (what the - he's from Germany!!), talking about spam mail that had come from my account (care of China - typical), that he only wants emails about how I am doing and that quote 'Still have you on my mind, Love David xo'.  

A year and a half later!!!!

Wow!  I mean seriously, what does one do with this information!!!???  Haven't been in contact for awhile, still thinking about each other, thinking of emailing within the same 24 hours...I mean seriously!!!!

Of course I was so excited, I mean how random!!! So I replied with a semi long email, asking about Brazil, and so many other questions, eager to hear the answers and find out what my lovely friend was up to.

Next day, around the same time as the first email: 'So, just missing you, Kiss David xoxo'

WHAT THE?? No answers to the questions just the one answer in response to them all...I guess that is just what IS going on!

BUT SERIOUSLY!! What exactly I am supposed to do with this information! ????  Of course my brain immediately starts swimming, should I see him, will we meet soon, what exactly is going on? WHAT THE? WHAT the? WHAT THE?

Of course I replied to this and to this day no reply!

Typical!!!

So, I have this phrase that I am seriously almost on my way to patenting.  My friends have even started using it a lot:

'Boys ARE dumb'

Simple I know, maybe even obvious to some, but oh so true! No matter what happens, any situation, I tell you, that phrase is definitely one that works!  This situation, is definately no different!  

Don't get me wrong, this phrase is not meant to be used as an insult, this statement can be used in many different ways - jokingly, in frustration, screamed in anger, said with a laugh...but it really is true!  And an oh so frustrating FACT.

'BOYS ARE DUMB' I am stressing to my friends (in reference to my current situation), in frustration!  I mean seriously!

Go on try it......I dare you.....apply it to any situation that you are currently experiencing (or not experiencing), even in relation to boys in your family.... it works, I tell you!!!!! 

The world really is a tricky and testing place because my god they are dumb but boy do we love them!

And I know that I am definitely number one in that respect!

Love RSG! xo
