A Chris-in-the-morning inspired blog. Somewhere I can hypothesis on human nature and narrate my own journey of self discovery. That sounds so cheesy! Basically somewhere that I can just spill out the contents of my head.

 
Apparently David had to apologise to his boss and I was because of me! Well he didn't have to but he felt he should give a reason for his lack of productivity lately. The thought that I could provoke such a response in a guy that his work suffers is a little beyond me. He really is quite amazing. His brains and humour faultless. And he's affectionate. In public. Arms around each other holding hands. We spent a large part of this evening (at the pub quiz) holding hands and he kept stroking the back of my hand with the back of his fingers. It's just such an intame feeling. What has this (I'm not sure I can really call him a boy) guy done to me! I con't stop kissing him. I want to spend all my time with him and although I'm not going to say it out loud I definitly find myself thinking _quite_ often 'I love him'.

He's really crazy about me! As I am about him. But I'm still in disbelief that he feels for me like he does. He wants me to go with him to Napier for Labour Weekend. Although it seems that I'm going to be working 2 days of the 3 day weekend. No!
Also I told him that I was really falling for him and he didn't run away! In fact he said 'I'm in a similar boat myself'
This is really serious. I mean _really_ serious. I know we've only been together for a week but he could be the one, he really could.

It's all official. I have a boyfriend. One that I really really like. He's, well he's just great. I should be able to think of something more eloquent but my mind is kind of blank after this evenings' exertions - and I don't mean the quiz. Although I'm beginning to think it was all an elaborate plan on the part of Lianne to keep me in Hamilton for as long as possible. In any case I don't begrudge her it if it is.
To be honest, when you look down my list of ideal guy type criteria he does fill quite a few.
Kiwi - so will want to live here.
British accent - so is very hot.
Nice body but not too nice
Glasses
Smart
Nice
A bit shyish
likeable
Friendly

But there's more there than just the criteria. There's something. Something that lets me be completely comfortable around him and so nervous I freeze up sometimes when those awkward moments come along. But not freeze up in a bad way. The lack of nervousness when were together most of the time had me wondering whether or not this was just one of those nicest-of-the-currently-available-guys-I-have-contact-with things. But no, there's more. So much more.

I have decided that I absolutely have to document a part of yesterday. It was sunday, Lianne had invited me to go for a walk with the to the Kauri grove in the Hakarimatas (just across the river from Taupiri hill, we could see where Dame Te Ata was buried from the top). Andrew Dirk and David also came. Dirk as part of his get ift for Canada regime went up the direct route to the top and was going to meet us part way down as we went up past the Kauri. We saw the 600 year old Kauri and carried on to a lookout type area at the younger Kauri trees. It looked out over a bushclad valley in a roughly sou'easterly direction. Absolutely lovely. No sign of civilisation, just a beautiful view of tree canopy, and the sound of birds in the air. Then Lianne realised she'd dropped her glasses somewhere further back on the path. Andrew offered to go back and have a look for them and Lianne went with him. It did occur to me at the time that this move might have been orchestrated or planned as it left me alone with David - for the first time since our first kiss. A couple of awkward minutes later and we were in a romantic scene from a movie. Kissing against the backdrop of the untouched wilderness. We were happy doing that for a while then I think we both got a little worried that Andrew and Lianne might have found the glasses and be on their way back. So we decided to carry on up in search of Dirk and the water - we were both rather thirsty at this stage. We'd barely gone a dozen steps uphill when we saw him heading in our direction.
I think I can honestly say that that was the best kiss I've ever had in the best setting by far.

La! Isn't life wonderful! I've got me a really great guy! I can't quite believe it. Kissing wise we're both a bit out of practice apparently but Dacid suggested that we could do something about that. Huzzah!

I have a date tomorrow effectually although unofficially. So David and I have been orgaising for me to go over to his place to show him CloneDVD and to watch some Spaced. Tomorrow night about 7 he's making pasta. Eeeeee!

Eeeeee!
I feel like such a teenage girl. Lianne sked me in an email if it might be possible if I 'like' David. I replied saying that I did yes but I wasn't sure if it was a welcome sentiment. Her reply was this
OH MY GOD!

OF COURSE he likes you!

And in reference to my question of who them 'all' who were talking about it.

Us "all" is our pub quiz team - Carmen and Corey and Kate and Glen and Dirk
and David and I. We weren't like totally gossiping but we have all been
friends for a while and would like to see David with someone nice like you -
even Andrew thinks you'd be a good match.

They think we'd be a good match! Always good news because Dirk and Lianne know him really well. ANd that they think I'm nice. ^_^
I'm going to be bouncing around all day now.

Oh boy what is it this time I hear myself saying at some point in the future when I look back over these posts. What lovelorn teenage girl thing is going on now? Well I have a crush. So I'll start at the beginning.
I've become quite good friends with Lianne. After she and Dirk found out that I was into Firefly at Mike's Midwinter Christmas thing I think we both realised we have more in common than we thought. I saw Lianne and Dirk at Jimmy's EP release gig and Lianne pointed out to me that the two Davids were single (being David Hamilton-who although nice and quite hot isn't my type, and David Scott- Who I didn't know at that stage and I didn't get the chance to talk to that night). After the workshop the next day when Michelle came down , she, David Hamilton and myself went back to Liannes. I was much fun and I'd mentioned to Lianne that I wanted to go see a Britich comedy movie I'd heard good things about that had actors from Spaced (which she'd told me about). She suggested that we go on the Sunday. So we did and David Hamilton came along too. Then the next weekend Lianne was having a DVD night originally to shew Andrew (from taiko) that Firefly wasn't too geeky. But it turned into a British comedy night with Look Around You, Spaced, Green Wing, Monkey Dust and Eddie Izzard. We ended up staying until the next afternoon. Then because there was so much to watch we had to carry it on the next weekend. I ended up leaving Liannes at about 7pm Sunday. ANyways, during all this time there were 2 single guys. Andrew - who plays in the Hollow Grinders and David - who has a british accent [melts]. There were some moments I believe, between Andrew and me. Things like sitting quite close on the couch when we didn't need to be quite that close etc. But I like David better. This last weekend we watched Pulp Fiction (we being Lianne, Dirk, David Scott, David Hamilton and myself) and we (minus the Tron) went for a short hike to Wairere falls. Even though I haven't got any signs from David I still have a bit of a thing for him and some of that stupid pointless teenage girl hope. I'm trying to stop myself from making up any mini fantasies in my head because otherwise I'll get all worked up over it and when nothing comes of it I'll feel all deflated. But I can't help hping, he's smart, hot, funny, not an ass, loves Green Wing!, and generally very nice.
Venting done, I feel a bit better. I think some of it is because I'd just really like a boy to be interested in me. To know that to someone I'm actually attractive. Although Dirk has said some flattering things to me (in a nice way, he is married). Failing any single boy I know making any advances on me I might just have to earn heaps and fly Darren down here. That'd fix it.
