Yes, this is another of THOSE threads.  I tend to create a new one when the old has grown too large and unwieldy. Hope nobody minds... I'll start off mostly with trivialities. There might be more serious stuff added later, we'll see if I feel I need it or not.
I've mentioned before how much I appreciate Tim's stories. I've only read a little Chris and Nigel, but I have checked out most, if not all, of the short stories, and the "Nice Try" series too.
The "Nice Try":s is the ones I like the most so far. They're wonderful, just wonderful! I really loved the first two parts, it just connected with me on a very deep level, seeing the events out of two different perspectives. The third part was also very nice, but I liked the first two the best. They were bloody marvellous. Liked the characters, liked the setting, and the storyline itself was very sweet and beautiful. I'm so glad I read it, it's a make-people-happy kind of story. It sure made me happy while reading...
I picked out my "Pitch Black" T-shirt as change today (it's a promotional thing for the movie with the same name, complete with a Burger King logo on the back. Won it at the premiere, quite a stroke of luck). It's my smallest shirt, and it has always made me feel kind of like a stuffed sausage when I wear it.
Now it fits quite nicely. Whoo-hoo.
But I will regret going to the gym. I've definitely overloaded my right knee, maybe both of them even. I'm going to rest tomorrow, and then try the running-cycling-machine thingies Tim tipped me about. I've cast them glances but never actually tried them. Maybe that will work better. Today was really difficult by the way. I was all the way up to 178bpm and it really FELT inside my chest! But relaxation afterwards was great too.
On the way home, I saw a blonde kid on the bus that I've never seen before. He sat facing me a few rows up, and he was just the type to set off some of the members of this board. Not awesomely pretty, he had good looks, sure. But what catches your eye is that he had a special kind of charm about him. Slim, you could see it on his face even though he was dressed in thick winter clothes. Chin and lower jaw, straight lines, distinct forms. No prominent cheekbones to speak of, they were there but not making much noise of themselves, just adding to the overall aura of cute charm. Hair was straw blonde and kinda wet and ruffled. The tips curled just a bit, but not the hairs themselves, as they stuck together from the dampness in bunches. More cuteness there in that hair. Blue eyes of course, small mouth with an impish grin to it, showing off fine lines in his face when he smiled...
He was talking to his father I think, so I had to look at his reflection in the window for much of the trip. Grownup man's head was right between us unfortunately. It was dark outside and the bus brightly lit, so it was easy to study him. I had to tell a young woman not to lean her head against the window (because she just about blocked my view completely). I used the excuse that the glass was grimy (and actually, it was).
Okey-dokey... Dinner's ready in the oven now, time to go...
