ex boyfriends who never grow up (or out, or longer) !
this is something that i have been wanting to get off my
chest since i saw him for the first time in 3 years.
i
guess the hassle of liking em young is that they will always seem
immature. not always thank goodness, every now and then
you get a good one. the thing that gets me most about my ex(s)
is that most of them repulse me now (what the hell was I thinking?)
in considering this - here are some things that i really wish i had
said to him :
- i've smoked fatter joints than that
- why dont we just cuddle
- will it squeak if I squeeze it ?
- can I be honest with you ? (yes at times even pea holds her
tongue)
- why dont we skip straight to the cigarettes
- are you cold ?
- if you get me drunk first ... (thats just an invitation really
aint it ?)
people (mainly men) who honk their horns at me
while i am putting on my makeup in the car in the
morning. i'm a jafa damnit, i can put mascara on in
70 kph rush hour traffic !

but at the end of it all, its about family ... |
i was bought up in the wairarapa - a smallish town called
masterton - all except a year or so when we lived in wairoa and
then dannevirke. i've got 2 younger twin brothers who live
in wellington, mom lives in whangarei and dad and pam have just
moved to the hawkes bay. 
mummy is very very successful and i am so proud of
her. shes in radio, a general manager nonetheless,
but also like the wolf on pulp fiction, shes the cleaner
that you call in to mop up the shit and put the shine back
on it.
dads given up the job he had for years and taken on
something with no responsibility - i wish i could do that!
still its about time.
james (jazel) is finishing his masters in theatre
and film at victoria university and iain (ewi) is already a
senior teacher. its crazy
watching some siblings with each other, always arguing and
baiting each other and shit. me and my bros
cant stop yabbering and hugging each other and when the
beer flows, so do the songs.
my family make it easy to love them. i
wouldnt be where i am without them and all their support
(and the shit they give me as well).
when mom moved
to whangarei, i got all the photos to sort out.
there are some crazy ones in there and so i've been
sorting them (throwing away the ones of people i dont know
and the ones of people that are really ugly. now
that dans bought me a new scanner (after blowing up the last one),
i'm back on the mission to scan all the photos into an album for
my family. i've started with a new page - with some of the
good ones that i think they will enjoy the most. pea's

i think i'm
very lucky to have a wondeful man to come home to at night. i
know that sounds a bit pukey and sickly sweet - and i dont give a
shit. my man looked after me when i first moved to auckland
and although neither of us knew the others intentions, all
intentions were on getting each other. so a dance and a snog,
and my suck flatmates pushed us together. in oct 2002 we'd
been together 2 years! yaaaaay!
we have a kitten - jaxx. he's nearly 2 now.
mental is the only word to describe him, but then dan likes to pride
himself on raising jaxx, so go figure.

stalker!

vehicles have feelings too ...
|
|
i like a nice
ride, luckily dan does too - although sometimes his ideas sound
better than they actually turn out. or is it that he starts
something and never finishes it. this is my campaign to buy a
new car. if you want, i'll beg. just click the pay pal
link on any of these pages and your donation will aid me in getting
rid of the giggle (granny) mobile and into a safer, stylier
ride. cheers.
