more friendship

This afternoon I called Blue Fairy. It has been about 4 months since I spoke with her as a friend and I asked her - are we still friends.
Her answer while disappointing was not surprising, NO! She had a few excuses and such but mostly I understood why she does not have many friends. She doesnt culture friendship, that is unless there is a lot going her way then she cant abide by it.
I bear her no grudges for being honest about the friendship, probably never had much of a chance anyway. Really wot kind of friendship continues to exist because you have one dominant person, constantly and the other agreeing because she knows that the other will not tolerate a disagreement.
I must say that in the last few months I dared to disagree and I could see that Blue Fairy was unhappy with the answer.
AND so that this is not all one sided I have to admit that once I no longer officially worked for the council I had no problems bagging it. This part while joined in enthusiastically and fuelled sometimes by Blue Fairy was very wrong and quite destructive for the friendship because I often disagreed with Blue Fairy on a matter. She seemed to take it on the chin, maybe she didnt!
It is a shame for a friendship to end like this, it is a shame for any friendship to end.

Joke


Woman walks into a ice cream parlour and asks for some chocolate ice cream.
"Sorry miss but we're out of chocolate, could I interest you in another flavour?" replies the man behind the counter.
"Ok I'll have chocolate"
"But we don't have any choclate" the man says firmly.
"What about chocolate?"
"Right spell Van as in Vanilla"
"V-A-N" the woman says.
"Now spell Straw as in Strawberry"
"S-T-R-A-W"
"Now spell Fuck as in Chocolate"
"But there is no Fuck' in Chocolate"

"Thats what I've been tryin to tell ya!!"

Friends


Aint it great to have friends. I mean for all different reasons - they can be your muse, your mentor, they are the one you listen to, the mum or even just plain fun. I think friends are great.


They pick you up, dust you off and even kick you up the bum if you need it - honestly where you be without them.


I think I am very lucky to have so many friends who fit into so many areas of my life, especially with me working on my own now. Sometimes I just need a friend so I know that I am not the only person here on earth alive today.


I had a day where I had a lot of work to do and no motivation to do it. I called a friend thats wot, and we chatted for a while - nothing deep or meaningful, not that I remember anyway. When I hung up I felt like I could go on and get the work done and I did. Nothing earth shattering there but I think it is important.


I have been experimenting with different looks for my blog and other areas of my orifice and it sure is great to get the opinion of someone else to see if you are on the right track.


Dont get me wrong I dont live and breathe my friends and live in their respective pockets, it is just really good to keep in touch, share a little and then get back to work.


One of my friends is having a stressful time at present. She calls a couple of times a day and is really freaking out. I think workplace relations are pretty shite now days. Honestly if you cant communicate with your boss wot you are feeling and they use standover tactics to push you into areas you dont feel comfortable with AND they dont listen to you more importantly, work can be pretty over the top!


I suppose I am biased !!
