incoherently rambling since 2003

Ok so since the boy is nowhere near a computer probably for the first time in years I’ve been instructed to give a run down of what Adams been up to.

: He arrived safe and sound. His highlight of the flight was the alcohol he consumed on the plane. Mind you he was on an 8:30 a.m. flight. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again he’s an alcoholic.

: The boy was taken shopping and he now has a new wardrobe, I’m going to give him uber-brownie points for being completely open to anything I suggested. Didn’t like dirty denim? Now has two pairs. Didn’t think he could wear gorgeous striped and patterned shirts? Now his favourite. Men’s leather slides? Wears them with everything. Chunky gorgeous men’s watches? Check. Needless to say he looks gorgeous.

: He actually turned his work mobile off for probably the first time in years. And I wish I was lying but he twitched for the first couple of days, physical withdrawal symptoms over your phone not ringing is wrong on so many different levels.

: He’s loving being in Sydney at the moment and it suits him. He’s been dragged willingly to the Art gallery, hung out on Manly Beach with Rachel, gone for afternoon drinks at one of the locals, tried a “Sydney” pub and absolutely loved it and has just generally been soaking up the Sydney sun and atmosphere.

He finally met the Talented Mr Caraxus and as I feared they get along like a house on fire. So much so they have two more dates before he goes home, I predict man babies before the end of the year.

: He’s handling the Sydney traffic like he’s been born and bred on these roads, even if he has a penchant for illegal u-turns at sets of lights.

: Apparently his plan for the holiday though is to save money by not eating properly, sleeping little and then drinking. Needless to say there is muchos tiredness for all but it does make the days seem longer which is a good thing as he’s already halfway through his trip.

: He’s done the SYdney tourist thing and rode the Monorail and had heart palpitations in Centrepoint Tower and rode the ferries and taken lots of photos.

: He’s finding that wearing decent clothes leads to more girls thinking he’s gorgeous. After going out for dinner and drinks with a couple of my friends one of then was decidedly taken with the boy. He’s now convinced it’s the clothes only and not the fact that he’s an entertaining and charming boy. I keep saying if wearing new clothes ups the odds of getting some them just accept that fact and move on.

: Seeing a deliriously tired Adam singing and dancing to Jamelia’s Superstar is probably the most disturbing sight of the trip.

: It’s his birthday Friday and there will be much drinking after we finally go see Ferris Bueller ( I’ll confess I haven’t seen this movie yet, but Adam, Caraxus and others have threatened to stop being friends with me if I don’t see it pronto). So I’m just putting out a warning that the likelihood of drunken phone calls from Adam Friday night is quite high.

: I’m going to miss him like crazy when he goes.
