I know she can see me. I can see her. There are only three things in the room and the chair doesn’t count! Hello - over here.
Nice dress, by the way. Don’t think I’ve ever seen you in a dress. Not… that one, anyway. Red is definitely your colour.
Hello - I’m talking to you! Trying to get your attention over here. Remember me…? Hello….
Hmm….
I thought I knew her… from before. Like when she was running around being all efficient and shit. Things got done. She was soooo… with it. Who knew. I thought I knew.
There was that one time, when she actually listened to something I was saying, and laughed. In all the right places too. That was cool.
Then she was aloof. Still there, but not there, you know? Women - I don’t get it.

While once at sea, a Toucan did I see,
beating her outstretched wings.
She flew so fast, my hopes were dashed -
No time to hear her sing.
And then it occurred, a splash I heard,
A Penguin could she be…?
Laughing and smiling, swooping and diving
in and out of the sea.
Another look, perhaps I mistook
a Hummingbird in flight.
Over and over, she darted for cover,
Always just out of sight.
And then it was clear, she flew so near,
At last I could truly see:
Not a Hummingbird, Toucan or Penguin at all,
But a Puffin… she was all three!

What do you see when you look at me…?
Yeah, red is definitely your colour.

‘There was that one time, when she actually listened to something I was saying, and laughed. In all the right places too. That was cool.’
Proverbial nail. Proverbial head.
*sighs wistfully* Why is that person so goddamned hard to find?
(Incidentally, nice to have you back blogging, Randy!)

The ones I find always seem to laugh in all the wrong places! Haven’t given up though.
