Caught In The Act

We sat glued dreamily to the television:

Sis: "How old do you think he is?"
Me: "Who even cares?"
Sis: "Imagine having a voice like that woman, and singing with him..."
Me: "Imagine being able to get that close to him, never mind singing at the same time."
BIL: *rolling eyes, getting up to walk out of lounge*
Sis: "What's her name again?"
Me: "Dunno...something-or-other...her surname sounded like pussy"
Sis: "Lisa!"
Me: "Well it did!"
BIL: *quick backtrack* "What was that?"

We were watching a DVD of Michael Bublè in concert. His name runs off the tongue ooh soooooo easily don't you think?

Michael-Buble


Michael Booooblaaaaaaay...*sigh*

I'm not one for having crushes on celebrities but I have to say...I could listen to this man sing and watch him move for hours...and hours....oh and did I say, hours??

When I mentioned his name to my sister on Saturday night, she clapped her hands..."Oh yes! I've got a DVD!...Let's watch that eh?" Who was I to argue? I was already in love with the man's voice...what better way to wile away an evening but to feast my eyes upon him. He does all those cutesy, jaunty moves at the same time as belting out some beautiful old classics...it was a win/win for me.

He came on stage at the top of the stairs as the strings commenced their harmony...."Feeling Good" had begun....mm, mmmm. As the sexy beat of the bassline and drums thobbed in, he strutted downwards. Lord....*slaps hand on heart*...I swear my jaw hit the floor the same time my knickers did! I had definitely started to feel pretty good myself.

My stomach did an achey flippity-flop that can only be described as hopeless desire for something unobtainable. Hot damn, as if I haven't been dealing with enough of that lately, pfft lol.

As he crooned so clearly "You Don't Know Me"...I threw my arms out to the TV and cried passionately "But I really want toooooo." My sister pinched me...maybe she was trying to get me to come to my senses.

If he EVER makes it to New Zealand, I am SO gonna be there...I don't care WHERE in NZ he may perform, I'm there. Security could end up carrying me off, only to be chasing me away again later...but hey, it'll be worth it.

Honest, I really AM going to be 42 in a couple of months...you'd never know it half the time eh? I reckon I can be just as good a groupie as the rest of them. In fact to quote my oldest son recently "Mum, you're acting like a school kid, it's not on", so there lol.

Never know how much I love you,
never know how much I care,
when you put your arms around me,
I get a fever that's so hard to bear...

You give me fever...
when you kiss me, fever when you hold me tight,
fever!..in the morning, fever all through the night...

*gasp* Who IS that masked font?

This far down the track, it's sometimes hard for me to remember where Dan and I came from. Not in the "Who am I?" or "What is my purpose on this earth?" kinda way you understand...but of how we met and how much that totally spontaneous meeting unexpectedly affected both our lives and the lives of those around us. It's been over 3 years since Dan stumbled across this blog, and almost 3 years since we actually met in person for coffee. Next February it will have been 3 years since I told him I was in love with him. Don't panic...this is not going to be a post filled with sunlight and rainbows, extolling the brilliance of the above-mentioned man and all he means to me. Would I do that to you? I mean to say...this is the first time I've put font to screen in over 4 months, do you really think I'd come back and get all gushy/mushy on you? Nah...that'd make even me wanna gag. The fact of the matter is...that it HAS been such a long time sinc...

A Wandering Post

Hallo Everybardee! (that's my Sharon Osborne impersonation.) I'm listening to Lemar's "If There's Any Justice" while I'm sitting here wracking my brain as to what to write today. And this song coupled with the recent brain-hurty questions that are being flung at us via Lisa's blog have me wondering. How many people out there are sitting in unhappy partnerships/marriages out there? How many are bobbling along in their marriages, for fear of not wanting to be alone or for the sake of the children etc? I spent 15 years with my husband before I finally realised we just weren't the same people we used to be and no amount of compromise was going to get us through the rest of life together. I met him when I was 18...seperated from him at the age of 33...one a teenager, the other a much different woman and the mother of two boys. I don't regret this time of my life, not one iota...there's a lot of learning and growing to had in those 15 years. My ...

Sleep, Blog, Sleep, Blog, hmm

Working extra hours will of course take it's toll on my body...and to be honest, things are going fairly well in that respect...that was...until last night. Cos ya see, last night, I didn't go to bed at the usual time of around 1030ish. I sat here and read my entire blog history...and although that's not HUGE because I've only been blogging since the beginning of the year....that's still a fair amount of reading to get through. That, coupled with catching up on some of your blogs (didn't always comment on them, forgive me)...I ended up crawling into bed at 1.35am. 1.35AM!! I haven't stayed up that late since I first started playing backgammon on the MSN Zone (and then we're talking about 3 and 4am, I must've been nuts!). Now I know that 1.30 isn't an unusually late night for some of you...but for me? it's big these days...real big. So this morning (some of the only free time I have this week, I...am...knackered. Why do we do this to ...
