Berry bushes...?
I went for a walk with Cameron yesterday. We both got stuff off our minds and it was good because we tend to bounce off each other and tell each other how it is without being insensitive.
We ended up at a park and had a D&M.
On the walk home, we passed these berry bushes. They have hard little red berry looking things on them. He picks them off the tree and I knew what he was going to do.
"Doonn't.. Nooo.."
He laughs at me - " I haven't done anything!"
"Just don't.."
He giggles, we keep walking
"I mean it, don't.." Wary I smile
He pifs one, two and one gets stuck in my hair. He got it out,
"No,dooon't, I told you not to"
"Aww, come on - your no fun, Fi (he's girlfriend) would of been slapping me and rubbing them in my hair by now."
"Yeah, You like that don't you!"
"Yeah"
"Well, I don't, I think it's stupid. I was brought up that you don't do that because you'll poke someone in the eye with it. It's not fun"
We laughed.
He then passed a gum nut tree. He gets a gum nut.
Need I say more? I just looked at him.
"I won't throw it at you ..."
He tried to then tried to put it down my back.
"Don't!"
"Ok,ok " he laughs.
This is me. I don't do that sort of stuff. Some people might put it down to maturity.
But I've always been like that.
Snobby? Well, I don't think anyone thinks that. I just think it's a stupid thing to do.
(Ha, another stupid thing to do is reading a letter while driving a manual van on a freeway, with two other people in it! But that's another story. I was that passenger, telling the driver to go read it in his own time! Passengers not impressed.)
One thing Cameron and I spoke about is being completely yourself.
For example, When Frank and I were being driven home in the van that night by Brian,
The van was swerving about into the other lanes. I saw what Brian was doing and said the above.
"It's ok"
"Nah - you have others in the car and your swerving all over the place"
I asked Frank if I sounded harsh.
He thought about it and said
"Yeah/no - Well, When I drive the van I make sure that I drive extra carefully with people in it. I wouldn't be reading a letter"
"Yeah, so do I that's why I think it's wrong."
I think it sounds worse when I re read it now but Brian didn't seem to care.
So I don't think I'm being unreasonable, In a situation like that I do speak my mind.
I guess I was compleatly myself.
Years ago I would of just said nothing and made a mental note of it.
I watched the good old, trusty Dr.Phil. Dr Arrogance if you ask me.
My mum came back from the oldies club, I'm glad she's got out and involved with other oldies. She hates me calling it that, I think it's funny that it gets a sincere reaction of "Their not all old"
Yeah, to be a member of this club you gotta wait about, roughly a year before someone keels over and your able to take their spot! Te he he
I guess it's funny cos' it's true!
