Bits and Pieces, Revistied

« previous next »



Going back to the points in this post:

She is passionate and romantic but not at the expense of her intellect.

  • Check
  • She's sexy and wild but never inappropriate: she'll go to the fetish club and the black tie soirée and not be out of place or uncomforable at either - there's even a good chance she'll pull them both off in the same dress.

  • Check
  • Friday she'll go to the pub and drink a pints and talk about philosophy and comic books.

  • Wouldn't be out of character at all, so "check"
  • Saturday morning she'll shop for antiques and speak of laquers and varnishes, but Saturday night she'll down drinks that could peel paint and dance like she's kicking someone's ass in boots that make her ten feet tall and while wearing plasitc hair.

  • Check on the former, not quite on the latter as she is more the pointy-boot type, which is even better ;-) Check.
  • She knows the bartender that freepours.

  • We talked about drinking "spillage" at TZ, definte check
  • She has one foot in the 19th century and the other in the 21st.

  • Check
  • Sunday she'll do the Times crossword

  • Bit fat "check" (crossword freak!)
  • waiting for Sunday brunch and spend the afternoon sipping coffee and listening to jazz

  • Check
  • while she makes art that I am envious of but not competative with.

  • Check (even have some hanging on the wall now!)
  • She'd rather have her name mentioned in a textbook than have a baby.

  • Haven't had this conversation, but I suspect this to be the case, tentative "check"
  • She won't want to move in with me but she'll want to get an apartment in the same building.

  • Check
  • She'll be able to put on a black dress that makes you want to bite your hand like Squiggy and dance in a swishy way that makes you shut your eyes at work on a Wednesday afternoon and smile a private smile and makes the pile of crap on your desk go away just for a minute while you remember how she looked.

  • OK it isn't Wednesday yet, but definite "check" nonetheless
  • And when work is out of control and you need to bring some of it home and work late, she'll sneak up behind you and kiss your neck while you are working and put a coffee beside you.

  • No data available at this point
  • She'll call you on your shit but not make you feel like shit while doing it.

  • No data, but I suspect so, tentative "check"
  • She'll go walking in the park with you and make fun of dogs.

  • We made fun of dogs over brunch, so definite "check"
  • She's a city girl who'd rather go to a night-club than take a walk in the woods as a general rule,

  • Check
  • but she'll love the ocean and the mountians and visiting places like Duncan and Tofino.

  • No data
  • She's challenging, but rarely frustrating.

  • Don't know yet
  • She won't leave and argument unfinished and refuses to go to bed mad.

  • No data
  • When she's tired she curls up on the couch with the cats to read or watch TV and wants you with her.

  • Check
  • [wow]
