Totally Awkward Tuesday
Well it’s that time of the week again when I’m going to share my TAT moment.
As many of you who read my blog (not that there are many of you!) you will know that I am madly in love with my wonderful boyfriend Kevin. Anyway on to TAT day. I was going to share my Tat moment with Kevin’s mum today but i’ll leave you with that one next week before I head off to Salou for 11 days. Here’s this weeks.
About two and a half years ago, not long after Kevin and I had started going out, we were at his house one Saturday evening after having been out for a few drinks with friends. We didn’t have much time as my lift home would soon be arriving and being a little tipsy we were fooling around as you do. Making out on his settee.
Now Kevin’s folks have a chime thingy on their door, just so that they know who is coming and going through the day if they’re home. His mum was already in bed and his dad was down at the club with his buddies. “He’ll be ages yet”. Kevin whispered.
So we carried on making out, one thing lead to another and well you can imagine what happened next.So there we were, pants round ankles etc….suddenly we hear the door chime, like music to one’s ears. We began a mad dash round the small living room to put on our clothes and make ourselves look respectable…we managed to get ourselves straight just in time before his dad walked into the living room. I’m sure he knew what we had been up to….I couldn’t look at him for a month after that.

I always remember saturday evening with The Dukes of Hazzard and eating tea whilst watching it.
3. What is your favorite quotable line from a movie?
my favorite movie quote is: “Have fun, that’s what your twenties are for. Your thirties are for learning the lessons and your forties? Are for paying for the drinks.” (Carrie Bradshaw in the S&TC movie)

Cheddar and lancashire cheese with chopped spring onion, beef and horseradish sauce. Chicken and Bacon. BLT. Too many to mention really. I’d be here all day.

Totally Awkward Tuesday
After reading Tova’s recent blog about totally awkward tuesday’s I decided to give it a go from my own perspective. So here’s my totally awkward tuesday moment for this week. I don’t recall it being a particulary funny story but here goes.
I remember being in the 5th grade at primary (thats elementary school for my american readers)and going on a week’s trip to Pwhelli in North Wales. It was something of a school ritual and every year the 5th graders would go on this trip. There was around 40 of us on the trip. 20 boys and 20 girls. All sharing one block of chalets. They were quite run down when we got there and a bit dirty so none of us really wanted to stay but we had no choice and began unpacking. The girls stayed in the lower row and the boys on the top. After a couple of days being there we had to go up to our teacher’s chalet for our spending money and seeing that the only way past was via the boys chalets.
There were four boys, all of whom I had a little bit of a crush on the trip. They didn’t know this however and as I walked past boy one’s chalet (let’s just call him Kev D), imagine my embarrassment when he was coming out of his bathroom in nothing but his boxers. I went bright red and my three friends saw this and proceeded to taunt me for the the remainder of the trip. They later found out that I had a crush on Kev D and wouldn’t let it lie.
Then a couple of months later, it had come to the end of our time at School, the school dance upon us. Everyone was there and that included Kev D. My friends were acting strangely and I was soon to discover why. The night wore on and soon it was time for the slow dancing and everyone except myself and Kev D found themselves with a dancing partner. When Kev came over to ask me to dance I said “No thanks. I’m ok.”
At the end of the night Kev came over to me and asked me if I fancied him. I didn’t know what to say and looked away awkwardly, seeing my friends giggling in the corner of the school hall.
I must say that I am glad that we went our seperate ways and headed off to different High Schools. I have never seen Kev D since that night and don’t suppose I will see him again. I have never forgiven my friends for telling him and I don’t think I ever will.
Salou Bound
It’s almost here…in 24 days time and at this exact time, I will have arrived at Reus airport and will be on my way to the Calypso hotel for our 11 night stay in Salou. Whoooo Hoooo!!!!!
