The Spot

See? I can ignore my blog too :)
Not intentionally though: sorry 'bout that! It's just different 'round here. Dialup + other phone users = less internet, ect, ect.
Well, I went out Saturday night. Jonny P. rather graciously took me under his social wing. We headed over to a grad party in Sydney, a caper get together in Westmount and an ending at Smooth Hermans. I knew 3 people at these parties.. but I still had a fantastic time. Probably because Pat McNeil was driving, so Spottle got a little sloshed :)
Needless to say, Saturday night is a bit of a blur.. but I do remember thinking "Hey, Smooth Hermans is pretty good!". Which it really is, ie: my good opinion is not just a product of beer. In retrospect, this is the first chance I've really had to explore Sydney when I'm of age.
I mean, I'd been dating Dave since I was 16. That's a long time. And if there's one thing I've learned from the experience, it's that dating turns us into turtles. Introverts. Social anti-butterflies. No matter how hard I tried, I could barely satisfy family and boyfriend, let alone fit friends in.
So now that I'm single, it feels like it's the first time. I mean, I've never really been single before, not as an adult. And I think I like it. Sydney is a lot more fun as a single female. It's the little things: smiles, courtesy, getting told I'm beautiful..
If being comitted made Montreal no fun, and being single makes Sydney enjoyable... maybe [just maybe] there's hope for Fredericton.
Speaking of NB, I'm going to visit my grandmother in Miscou next weekend with my father. We litterally can't drop by UNB, even for a few hours since we're so short on time.. but Mom and I might go up later in the summer to find an apartment or house or condo or whatever. We'll wait to hear from everyone else first though. I wish the Brondo were in New Brunswick :)
