Happy New Year
New Year's Eve and New Year's Day, (for reasons I can't go into because they involve other people,) were the most difficult 48 hours I've ever lived through in my 36 years. I slink home on the train on a grey, wet, cold, typically miserable and lifeless New Year's Day, wishing only to get home and get into bed and make the world go away. I don't want drink, I don't want drugs, I don't even want chocolate. It's too early to go to sleep. I go online and have an almost visceral craving to watch Dirty Dancing, but it's not available. I want pink, I want fluffy, I want mindless and girly, I want easily resolved problems and happy endings. So I watch Legally Blonde and Mean Girls back to back. I would have gone on to watch Miss Congeniality but I fell asleep. It didn't make things better but it did work exactly as I hoped - I was anaesthetised by chick flicks. Praise be for chick flicks!
Happy New Year, dear readers. I hope you and yours remain safe and sound for 2008.

I hope the rest of the year will be a vast and positive improvement for you, with minimal chick flick viewing.
sorry to hear it, Annie. here's hoping 2008 brings better times x
Hopefully it's the lowest you'll experience in 2008 and it'll be all fabulous from here on in.
Sorry to hear you had a rubbish 48 hours but I'm assuming the remaining 363(?) days will be great! Hope so
That sounds grim, Annie. I hope things improve for you very soon. Meantime pink , fluffy, indulgent movies to be taken 4-hourly or as necessary. xx
Hope you're okay and that general horribleness resolves itself soon. Take care.
Sorry to hear it, Annie. But at least there's only one way to go - up!
(PS I deleted the last comment because it turns out I wasn't posting as myself!)
thanks my friends - I hope you have a great year too.
Happy New Year.
Hope whatever you went through is all over and done with.
What everyone else said. I hope everything works out for the best. Happy 2008!
Of course you can go into the reasons. Just change the names very very slightly, so they can't be Googled.
But, yes, anyway, schlocky films always do it for me. Beaches, Heaven Help Us, Big, Pretty In Pink...
Not good Slammers. The only way is up! Happy New Year sweety! x
Ah, merci my dears! Onwards and upwards indeed.
Happy new year Annie.
Happy New Year and very sorry to hear about the woes. I so hope it's an improvable situation.
This means you are allowed to buy a new pretty bra AND matching pants and stockings, AND to spend at least a whole evening building yourself a beehive for kicks.

Thank you for your kind words, they cheer me up a lot xxx
