bellatif's blog post - an ordinary Friday??

It was anything but ordinary. I got up EXCITED and stayed that all day long. Not that there was anything to look forward too. It was cold, cloudy and raining. But I can’t really explain why but I had the feeling I could EXPLODE any minute. So I had to go out. Boyfriend stayed in (still recuperating from Thursday drinking). And I went to the aquarium. I so wanted to get WET and have some FUN. But don’t think I could take a fish back home.

Back at the hotel I was burning again from tension. I had to do something to put the pressure of. And seeing I didn’t feed that big fish I wanted, I thought of taking a swim. Just when I was ready to make that dip, boyfriend had some great news. Hmmmmm. Just say he was occupied when I was away. Yah, he wants to buy a car. When he told me I was like: ‘you crazy, you can’t buy a car over here. We don’t have a place, and you thinking of a car!’. Just some hours unsupervised and I get this. Oooh, I was TICKING.

Of course boyfriend was charming his way in. Trying to convince me with ‘oooh, but it’s a beauty, you will love it’. And I’m trying to get this idea out of his head by telling we don’t need a car. We have other things to be concerned now’. But yah, when boyfriend has an idea, it is hard to get it out of his head. So after some time he convinced me to have a look with him. He told me I had to see this “‘56 Chevrolet corvette” (a convertible, navy blue). But boyfriend knew I would not fall for just an old car. Unless it was a “Herbie” that would drive my everywhere, I was sure of my opinion: NO NO and again NO.

But yah, that changed when I saw it. Ooooh, it was such a cool car. And in such great condition. Was just fully restored. I must say I was still doubting at first, what do I know about engines and engine sounds. But the final kick was when the guy took us for a spin. After that I knew boyfriend was in love. And to be honest, I like it also very much. After we were back at the hotel (1.37 AM) boyfriend was almost begging me to have this car. Guess what I said? Yah, and saying I’m the boss, pffff. So the next couple of days boyfriend will make an offer. I wonder how things will go.

Oooh, and another thing today (now Saturday). I’m going to a party/drink tonight. One of the guys (the lazy, crazy dude from Thursday) has invited us to his house. And I’m so excited now. My first home drink. I can just imagine what the conversation will be tonight. Hmmm, no soccer I suppose.
