Six Months In

Please accept my apologies for the lack of entries. I know quite a few people have got bored with this blogging malarkey – perhaps moving onto the world of Facebook – but I’ve simply been too busy with my relationship to find the time to post.

I always complained (well, to myself) that whenever my friends found themselves in a relationship I was left to my own devices and out in the cold. Now I can see just why that happened as both "P" and I have noticed that we’re not doing the things we did prior to meeting each other. Mind you, I’m not complaining because I’m enjoying every minute of it and we’ve both commented on just how fast the last six months have gone past.

Up until now I’d never been in a proper relationship during Christmas and with it rapidly approaching I can’t wait to dish out my carefully selected presents. There’s no stupid "gifts" for the kitchen or naughty underwear (although I’d relish the idea) but items which are for "P" and her alone. After carefully watching and listening to what she likes (fingers crossed) I hope she’ll be delighted. However, the only downside to this Christmas is that I won’t really be seeing her – "P" will be at her parents whilst I’ll be at my own.

Being Christmas and all, the next stage of our relationship is navigating the tricky office Christmas party. Apparently, there has been much interest in just who this mystery man "P" is bringing to the party. Naturally, I’ll be on my best behaviour but I’m sure I’ll be as nervous as hell (especially since, out of ten or twenty people, I’ll only know one person in the room). I’m sure she’ll feel nervous too but, equally, I’m sure she’ll be just as nervous when it comes to my office party too!
