82. Don’t screw without a condom…no matter how good it’s going to feel

83. Don’t buy birthday cards, make them yourself. They’re a lot nicer coz you’ve put the effort in and it’ll save you 5 bucks!

85. Tell me why i dont like mondays?

86. Don’t lie to yourself to the point where you convince yourself that what you’ve made up is the truth

87. Laugh at dogs with buckets on their heads

88. Take your make up off before you go to bed…remind me to actually follow that one!

89. If you’re buying a new bed, get a queen. A double bed is futile

90. I’ll think of some more when my brain is more active

I had the most surreal experience today.
I went to the Muse Bar in St Kilda, which is a lil divey place that has an open mic on Sunday nights. There was actually a very good guy who did some stand up. He talked about online dating…haha he was so spot on with some calls he made.
There was also some guy who wore a shiney silky see through coat, and a womans Melbourne cup style hat who did some odd interpretive odes. It was really very strange, and I only remember the words “I’m so grubby, I’m so grubby, I got a chubby for Tara McGubby” I don’t know who Tara McGubby is, but if he had a hard on for me, I’d run a mile. He was one of those odd freak kinda guys. And he went on forever.
He was followed to a woman who talked about lemons for 10 minutes or so. The taste of a lemon. How her life was a lemon. She had a big poofy bow in her hair, that was reminiscant of the way Jennifer Warne looked on the front cover of the Blue RainCoat album. The surreal part hasn’t happened yet, by the way.
It didn’t happen til we escaped the vocal wrath of a one man stooge show. He had a guitar and I couldn’t understand a word he said, which was a good thing, coz I don’t think I wanted to know what he was talking about.
We snuck out the back, thru the kitchen and into a room no bigger than my kitchen. There were some couches and some cushions scattered on the floor. I felt I’d walked into some sort of 70’s ‘leave your key in the bowl’ party. A couple of joints and a bowl of fondu, and you would have said it was love in.
There were these 2 guys who were playing guitar. They were fantastic. They call themselves the Gypsy somethings…one of the guys looked like Patrick Swayze in Point Break, as Teeda pointed out. Sitting next to him, was a Steve Buschemi look a like. Next to him was Caren, then Jamie, then Jim and his new girl Marie, and then Teeda sat in front of them, looking incredibly uncomfortable on a poof…okay, ottoman. I love calling them poofs hahaha. I sat on the floor on a cushion, next to some woman who was wearing PJ pants and kept remarking to me how good the Gypsies were. 2 cigerettes later, and we’d decided to head off.
Went to the Inkerman a block down to grab some dinner. It was a gorgeous night so we ate outside. It was a great pub. Unpretencious without being so divey it’s trendy, ya know. Just a nice pub. St Kilda can often be a trap for those places that are bohemian that trendies find and make their own, then they become cool, and lose their heart. Since when did sitting on Op shop couches become cool?

Anyway, it was beautiful and great value food. 12 dollar steak, chips and vegies. I had a 7dollar fettucini matriciana and it was great. I couldn’t even finish it, it was so big. We sat outside in the warm night air, with our new friend the happy but dumb as a post Kelpie dog. He was beautiful, but an absolute doofus.

Love this John Butler song…Take. Wicked song….

I got the wierdest vibe from Jamie tonight. He didn’t seem himself. Jim kinda annoyed me tonite actually. I hate it when he gets a new girlfriend and starts to act kinda different. It’s probably not noticable to other people, but I know him so well so I can tell.

Oh, went and visited Andrea too this arvo. Thought it would be good for her to take a break from study, so we just dropped in. She has an exam tomorrow. Good luck angepange.

That’s about all I have to say….
Apart from the fact I felt like a bit of a loser being out with 2 couples. Hahaha Teeds and I are so often eachothers surrogate dates. Lucky she’s a hottie, I guess. Think I might go to Teeds tomorrow nite for her sisters 21st birthday bbq. Fingers crossed it’s a good day for it.

Love prue

How annoying is Frank Walker???
HELLOOOOOO.

274

I just finished watching Amelie…
I loved it. It was just so beautiful. So very few films like that.

Cut to thoughts about DW.
Miss him so much lately. No one else makes me want to slap them in anger, or rip off their clothes with desire, or kiss their forehead when their sad and whisper I love you. Don’t think I’ll ever find it again. Don’t know if I want to find it with anyone other than him, even if it does exist.

I need a new journal layout. Working on another for my website.

I’m hungry. Need food.

273

Last nite I wrote a rockin song…although I’m stuck for a chorus.
If John Foreman or my local musical genius Bri wants to have a go trying to do something with it, then by all means, lemme know.
It’s actually a bit of an angry song about being trapped in a relationship. I don’t know where it came from, I just sat down and there it was! Funny how one can write about stuff that doesn’t really apply to oneself. Normally, I have to be inspired by my own heartbreak and misery to write, but whamo! Whaddyaknow!?

I have the song from “Diff’rent Strokes” stuck in my head. I’ve had it there all morning. I was just wondering if I could get it as a ring tone? Now THAT would be badass.

Tuesday night, I spent my first official nite away from home in some time. I can’t remember the last time I slept somewhere other than my own bed. Actually, come to think of it, I fell asleep on Teedas lounge room floor a few months back, and when I woke up in a daze, I stumbled in to her spare room and collapsed. But that doesn’t really count, coz I’m talking about one of ‘those’ kind of sleep overs. Actually, god, the last time I spent the nite at a guys place has to be well back into last year, when I stayed at DW’s place. Jeez, has it been that long?

It was actually very wierd…I mean, it was wierd having someone sleep next to me. I’d forgotten what it felt like to fall asleep having someone hold me. Not that I actually slept until just after 6am, and only for about 40mins. Not because it was one of those nites filled with sex, but because after he fell asleep at 2, I just lay there. And lay there. And lay there. I looked at the cieling. I was even grateful that the birds are waking up early, coz it gave me something to focus on. I was so paranoid that I was going to fall asleep and snore that I actually stayed awake all nite. That’s wierd huh? Yes, I know it is…I don’t need any confirmations. I was so worried I would snore really loudly. Maybe it’s coz I’m fat? But I’ve always been fat, and my snoring didn’t start until after I had really bad tonsilitis last year. And then just out of nowhere, it started. Crappily enough, I did fall asleep briefly, and he heard me snore. I blushed. He gave me shit. And it was all good. He said now there’s no excuse for me not to go to sleep next time. I might be able to rest a little easier if there is a next time.
Don’t ya hate it when it’s all early days and ur not sure if there will even BE a next time?

I miss having a steady relationship. That’s one thing I know. But as Murpheys law would have it, the best way to get a date, is by getting another date. And it’s true. I have a drought for what seems like years, and then all of a sudden there’s blokes comin out of the woodwork all over the place. What a strange phenomona (sp?)!! To try and stop that from happenin, I’ve taken myself off all these personals sites and crap. Well, all 2 of em anyways. Funnily enough, after I had taken down my profile, I got an angry email from Leigh telling me I should take down my profile so I don’t ruin the lives of other unsuspecting victims, ahem, men, I mean.

Along with that lovely piece of advice, he also let me know that I was an emotional slut who had basically ruined his life and how I’d torn him to shreds and that he needed his 3 books back, to purge himself of this ‘disgusting’ situation. I certainly didn’t waste any time in giving them back after that ambush. I actually feared going in to give him his stuff back though. His emails were so irrational and angry that I wouldn’t have been suprised had he gone postal on me. I actually had my phone in my pocket, with Teedas number ready to dial if anything happened. Thankfully it was all smooth sailing, but I guess I can add him to the list of people who will forever begrudge me.

Anyhoo, I have some stuff to take care of and some people to call.

Take it easy, sorry my rant is so long.

It’s freezing right now. Why are the nights so cold lately?
I just got off the phone to Brian (see, I spelt it right!?). We might catch up tomorrow arvo or evening, after he’s finished doing some stuff with his band. I have printed out some song lyrics and stuff, so we’ll have some tunes to sing. I wanna record some sort of crazy album. Speaking of crazy albums, I miss singing with Jamie! Come and sing with me you goose. We’re always talking about this fantastic crappy loungey retro flamingingly gay album we’re going to make. One day we’ll have our own float in the Mardi Gras, with hot oiled up queens dancing on top of a giant phallic microphone, wearing gold lame`short shorts and top hats. Look out for us in years to come.
I haven’t discussed this float idea with Jamie, but I’m sure he won’t need any convincing. In fact, I imagine I’d have to convince him to give up the spot of prized queen for the nite, that’s my job.
Thinking of oiled up, tanned hot boys… that’s it. I was just thinking of them.

Hahaha I was meant to go round to my own tanned hot boys house tonite, but he didn’t finish work til late the poor bugger! He must be knackered coz he starts at 6 and it’s not like he’s just sitting at a desk all day, he’s got one of those manly gardening and digging jobs! Maybe I can get a job as his sunscreen attendant. Oh man, I can only dream about having a job like that.
That’d be great, I could go around building sites and lather hot tradies in sunscreen….I’m purely interested in their wellbeing, you understand? Ofcourse

Andrea has her first exam tomorrow morning, so here’s wishing her a billion wishes of good luck, although I’m she wont need it.

It’s 3am so I should probably head for bed. Oooh I need to send off the form to go to this seminar in Funeral Services. They are holding this 3 hour thing on Dec 4th about what it’s like to be in the funeral industry from an insiders perspective, and what you can do to get into it. I thought it was amusing that on the website they pointed out that “Deceased will not be viewed during this seminar”
Why do they need to point that out? Are there a heap of morbid wierdos who would come if they thought they’d get a glimpse at a body? What a laugh.
Depending on how much it costs and whether or not I can find a mortician to be my mentor next year, I’m going to consider doing “Cert IV Funeral Services-Embalming”. Being an embalmer isn’t my idea of the perfect career for me, but it’d be a foot in the door and you gotta start somewhere. Otherwise it’s off to Holmesglen to do Community Services. So, gotta send off that form tomorrow.

Okay, now i’m really going.
Be good, or be good at it

Awesome nite…
Just got home from visiting Teeds at the Park Hyatt, where she treated herself to a birthday stay. So Ange and I went in to visit her, and considering Jase was only 10 mins away, I invited him up. He’s so gorgeous! When I walked him out to his car, we were hugging and I said something about being embarressed about this crappy cold sore I have, and he put his hands on my face, looked at me and said “What about the coldsore?” And then kissed me! Awww it was too cute for words.
And with that, I floated back into the hotel…floated home…and I’m about to float into bed…
Nite guys

It’s nearly 5am, but I can’t sleep yet. I thought I’d post some of the things I got up to this week and in days gone by.
Last weekend I met up with a mate of mine from the net Adam. He’s a really good bloke, but some how reminded me of a guy named Joey I used to work with. Bad thing about that was that Joey drove me crazy. It was just a resemblence thing and completely threw me.
I decided to follow on with catching up with a few net friends that I hadn’t met before, so on Thursday I had lunch with Andrew. He’s a nice guy, and was much taller in person than I had expected. He reminds me of a cross between Luke and Franco. But ofcourse, nowhere near as suave and cool as Franco. I don’t think many people are! Good bloke, but I don’t think we’ll catch up again. We hadn’t really done alot of talking online, and in person we got along, but I don’t think he’s the kinda person I’d hang out with.
Thursday night was Teedas Birthday. We all went along to the Beauy for dinner, and then headed out to the Sandy Hotel for Karaoke and drinks afterwards. Had an awesome time, and once I get these drivers off Franco for the camera, I will upload them. I met some cool arse new people too, which is awesome. Shoutout to Rocky!
I pretty much slept thru most of Friday, and then went to Teeds to do some home karaoking. God, we do way too much Karaoke. I think I need a 12 step program.
Today I was meant to catch up with a mate of mine Zane, but my phone was on silent all day and I didn’t get his msg til tonite. So sorry mate. I will have to call him tomorrow and try and re-organise something.
Tonite I spent hanging out with Bryan. He’s this guy I’ve known online for ages and ages, and he just lives in Frankston. We’d been talking heaps on the phone lately, so we caught up tonite. He came and picked me up and we went back to his place and hung out and played guitars…well, I kinda just pretended to play. He’s an awesome guitarist though. It’s so cool, I suggest a song, and he can just pick up his guitar and play it! Talk about awesome talent. He’s in a band Ten Penny Joke
They rock! I left my cd he gave me in his car though! doh! It was awesome though, to just chill and play and sing together. Will definetely catch up again soon and do it again. Perhaps the long awaited album “Prue Sings Her Hits- My Life As A Bagel” will come to fruition! We can only hope!
Tomorrow nite I’m sposed to have a date with a guy I know Jason. I have to call him tomorrow and figure out what time. We’ll see what happens.
I got a msg off Gords tonite saying he missed me and was thinkin about me. I was kinda shocked actually. Was good to hear from him though for sure.
Shit, my foot is sleeping again. Maybe he’s onto something…….
I should go to bed and let the rest of me sleep.
Love prue
