I also feel too hot and want to curl up and have a cuddle, preferably with someone nice and warm, but more likely with my floppy dog.
And I want to go shopping!

1) Not only could they not remember giving me their phone number, but it took them at least a couple of minutes to remember who I was.
2)Don't think person in question is very used to girls showing an interest as I could hear fear, panic and the sound of things being dropped, including the phone.
3)Then said they weren't very good at making plans for the future and would call me back, (like hell).
Not super-bothered at it was more an excersize in, well ritual humilation as it turns out, but more to see if I could do it. And it was almost sweet in a totally crap and inept way. But it's still causing me flushes of embarrassment as I think about it.

The seller had been getting impatient, and the buyer for my house had been on the verge of pulling out, so I was delighted. I phoned around the various parties, including instructing my solicitors to go full steam ahead with searches and all that stuff.
Then I got a call back from the estate agents for the flat I'm buying. How was this survey done, without contacting them? I got back to the agent, and he promised to investigate. Today, I learnt that all of this was untrue. No approval, no survey, no mortgage. The agent claims he was just telling me what the lenders told him, but whatever the reason the position now is that I have no mortgage and have to start again. I have run up costs that may be wasted, I may lose this flat, I will probably lose my buyer. All the time I am running up interest on the amount I had agreed to pay my ex-wife, since we are now passing the deadline for this.
I have suffered badly from clinical depression for some time, and this is not helping. I should add that little things do help some - an unexpected social invite made me feel a bit wanted, and I met Julio for the first time today (he studies at UCL, where I work), so that was good too.

But to look on the bright side I did just find a new flat and move into it with few problems. That can be really difficult and stressful, so you have my sympathy Martin, I'm sure things will get easier soon.

Erm, i just finished the last class of term. Anyone fancy a pint?
― petra jane (petra jane), Thursday, 29 August 2002 21:22 (twenty-three years ago)
the floor in my bedroom droops *ever* so slightly right at the only logical place to put a bed. consequently i sleep with my feet just 1 degree higher than my head, which leads to an uneasy sleep and murderous back pain
after three weeks this has taken its toll
