What the hell am I doing here? I don't belong here...

I just realised something freaky... A couple of days back I met this guy for the first time and found him to be really endearing. It surprised me, since I don't normally warm up to people on the first meeting. I met him again today and I felt even more comfortable, he seemed really upbeat in a nice, friendly sort of way. I noticed his eyes, and boy! Are they beautiful!! Too pretty for a guy actually. But they were so arresting that I couldn't move my gaze away from them. They completely overshadowed his lisp and, sometimes, indecipherable speech. And those eyelashes... I would kill for them!

So, it just struck me... He is actually a wicked combination of 3 men that have been in my life - 2 ex boyfriends and one estranged husband. Actually, he is a lot like my first boyfriend, he has a few things in common with the other ex boyfriend, and there is just a hint of the (not so) old man in there!

All this happens on the exact same day that Marmalade and I decide to get married! But more on that later... It's way past my bed time. I need to wake up early and see if any more of my neighbours can be spotted crouching endlessly on the narrow ledges outside their windows, hanging on to the grills at 7 am, for no apparent reason. (That's exactly how I began my day today!)

Good joke but trust me, that was no trick that my mind was playing on me. It was freaky, he just sat there, crouching uncomfortably, for ages. And those window ledges are not broad like mine, you can barely stand on one foot. The ones in my building, you can have a mini party on... no kidding!
