I am not too sure if it is just me, but I cant seem to get this little gripe out of my head. I cant help but feel a bit of a hypocrite?<br />I always said that I never wanted to be a single parent, or I <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">didn't</span> know how people could do it. There seems to be some sort of social stigma <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">attached</span> to being a single parent, and I openly hold my hands up and admit I am as guilty of <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">pre</span>-judging as the next person. Now, all of this may well be in my head, but since I found myself in this situation, I constantly feel the need to justify or explain.<br />Admittedly I'm not the 16 year old, no house, no money, no support, no father for baby type we constantly hear about but still...I feel as alone and scared as I am sure she might do.<br /><br />Tbrings me to my next point. Im 24, ( Iknow, i look so young...cough). The thought that I am a parent, absolutely, terrifies me. (and im sure it scares the hell out of people who know me too!!:o)) So, I can only imagine how these young girls feel. No matter what they say, they are not ready to be parents. They are only children themselves. <br /><br />Im not too sure where Im going with this, but all I guess I wanted to say was, this parenting lark is not easy, even if you have the support of a partner. So I know it doesn't help to have the judgemental stares from passers by, or comments from so-called friends.<br /><br />Humph.<br /><br />Moan over.Flicstixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01079146039194072100noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14621616.post-38756587072174817782007-05-28T21:29:00.001+01:002007-05-28T21:32:27.570+01:00Baby top trumps...<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEia5xPuZkEDbE8UVjuE664SRLgBOInAbADduyK3tOuzIITsW7xHSYaLonmKdTqjy0ALdXXxWyDBHsEsbAbpvD0zO91-wfDbWuxt58-gQ3Q6n5crSuO4fBmdOG1RP-x_d35ZuEN4/s1600-h/Random+067.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5069712071651350786" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEia5xPuZkEDbE8UVjuE664SRLgBOInAbADduyK3tOuzIITsW7xHSYaLonmKdTqjy0ALdXXxWyDBHsEsbAbpvD0zO91-wfDbWuxt58-gQ3Q6n5crSuO4fBmdOG1RP-x_d35ZuEN4/s200/Random+067.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div></div><br /><p>Nuff said</p>Flicstixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01079146039194072100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14621616.post-22653729362163899532007-05-28T21:24:00.000+01:002007-05-28T21:28:47.788+01:00Oceans 11<div>Just watching Oceans 11, for about the millionth time, and the dude in it, have no idea what his name is....

from 'Laguna Beach- the real OC'. It Is so funny to watch these kids, living the life in LA. The drama is so funny and the smalles of issues is always blown up to be a major event. </div><div><br />The best though, is having a conversation on this programme, takes about 15.7 years longer than it actually needs to. I mean, if they didnt always put in the word 'like' like every other word, then they would get it all out a lot quicker!! Im a girl who likes to get in, get it done, get out!!! Also, everything is spoken as if it is a question... the end of the sentence always seems to end in a higher tone than it started. So so funny!!<br /></div><br /><div>Anyway, you should check out <a href="http://www.mtv.co.uk/overdrive">this episode</a>.....has lots of great examples of the above, and even a bit of a girly bitch fight!!! </div><div> </div><div>Just good, mindless tv!!</div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIQGpgmSqxUILnAu-4z9ZPcdOB6Or-7E30l6qk7LIvFLv_qfyi1sqkHCrLVpQndjflgp676UoyMZga1XuMfvBvJZ_UY83iIff01e-DaTbCPbY_NERtBApdoeifaA9C_r0lXiKd/s1600-h/series_main_281x211.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5063048617909736306" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIQGpgmSqxUILnAu-4z9ZPcdOB6Or-7E30l6qk7LIvFLv_qfyi1sqkHCrLVpQndjflgp676UoyMZga1XuMfvBvJZ_UY83iIff01e-DaTbCPbY_NERtBApdoeifaA9C_r0lXiKd/s200/series_main_281x211.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><p></p><br /><p></p>Flicstixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01079146039194072100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14621616.post-59010694493154936762007-05-09T22:40:00.000+01:002007-05-09T22:59:48.897+01:00'Soooooo, this is where the tragic happens'<div>Ok, so the title has absolutely nothing to do with what I am writing, but i just heard it whilst watching Ugly Betty and thought it was FU**ING Hilarious!!!!!<br /></div><div>I think I am pretty good at putting on a brave face and pretending that everything is ok, but you know sometimes... my god!!!!

You literally could read about it in some weekly magazine. I am trying very hard, given the circumstances to constantly do the right thing, make sure everyone else is happy, and try to ignor the feelings I have inside desperately trying to expolde out of every available pore!!!<br /><br />Sometimes I feel as though there is a huge silver lining, but when I look closer, it is all cracked, scratched and would give you that nasty green tinge should you try to wear it as an accessory. Constant false hope, disguised by friendship, ignored and hidden under trying to keep a happy environment.</div><div> </div><div>I am bursting with not knowing the right thing to do!! I know what I should do, but shoulds and wants, are very different things. Sometimes our hearts do rule our heads.<br />I hope mine finally gives up......soon!!!!!<br /></div><div> </div>Flicstixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01079146039194072100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14621616.post-79515956000366004522007-05-01T22:03:00.000+01:002007-05-01T22:19:35.206+01:00Dust?

I will also begin by saying I am not the slimmest of people. However, I have an excuse, I had a baby! ( Although by 6 months, I will definately have no excuse to have it all shifted!!) </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>I was shopping with my Mum last week, when all that surrounded us, as far as the eye can see, was fat people. Im not talking a little bit of extra weight here. Im talking about legs chaffing, 4 bellies, no neck, need a wheelchair because they cant take their own weight kind of fat.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>What the hell is happening? You would think with all of these image obsessed celebrities filling our tabloids, and the huge (or not so) debate of the infamous (and ridiculous) size zero you would think that we as a nation could just say no.<br />As a child, I distinctly remember my parents saying that to me. A LOT!<br />No, to new shoes.</div><br /><div>No, to new clothes.</div><br /><div>No to the shcool trip.</div><br /><div><br />So where along the line did we forget how to say no. I dont want a second helping thanks. Im full.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Instead we keep going.<br /><br />Guilty pleasures.<br /><br />I blame comfort eating. But even in my size 12, I still know it time to do something about the excess poundage.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Surely we must all get to the point when enough is enough.... maybe not.</div><br /><div></div>Flicstixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01079146039194072100noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14621616.post-26908014126552147622007-05-01T22:02:00.000+01:002007-05-01T22:03:13.012+01:00hmmmWhilst eating my cereal this morning a piece of oat got stuck in my throat... think it is still there, its really sore....<br /><br />Just thought I would share that with you!! :o)Flicstixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01079146039194072100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14621616.post-35775765368387687442007-05-01T21:50:00.000+01:002007-05-01T22:20:14.408+01:00Explination<div>OK, so when I started to re-post yesterday, i mentioned about giving a little explination to my somewhat soap opera life.... below is a snippet from an email I sent earlier, which will give you the general idea of what is going on...</div><br /><div>The whole thing is a bot of a soap opera really to be honest. Boyf and I were together for 3 and a bit years, we then broke up, but didnt really, I moved out but we stiill spent all of our time together etc, all very complicated. </div><br /><div>I was having loads of tests done because the docs thought I had cancer and couldnt have children. When I went for my MRI scan is showed up I was 5 months pregnant, and in perfect health!! SO STRANGE> I was not showing at all and had actually been losing weight. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Boyf and I have not got back together so actually living out my worst fear and am single mum-tastic. We see each other every day and always do loads as a famaily, so it is not to say we wont get back together, but at the moment, we are just taking one day at a time. </div><br /><div><br />So this is my life! Weird how when something like this is thrown at you how you adapt so quickly. Not to say it has been easy though. I do miss a lot and have had to give up a lot, but to be honest, it is totally worth it! ....</div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5059700463269237554" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieAgr4eYRxITbZVGOsqJEVuN6lu1HarhWIEK3vhYCoo544317g1eAwarU-yDq8p0PmbvBaOYFQBO73xUb-VM6FsVNtlEJVq2i7WCxVGC2J9NHQ-RqIUp14K-v-SfV-284gpvhu/s200/Olly+%26+Jimmy+%26+Alis+Birthdays+london+April+07+002.jpg" border="0" /><br /><div></div>Flicstixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01079146039194072100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14621616.post-49323955861661681842007-05-01T21:49:00.000+01:002007-05-01T21:50:02.258+01:00Ok so, after what feels like forever trying to get the stupid MySpace site to work, I have finally manged to log back in! In the meantime, I crossed over to the dark side and went to check out Facebook. I have to be honest, I was pretty impressed, really easy to use and set up, and.. I have got back in touch with tons of the old school, Norf Leam massive ;o)<br /><br />After checking out all of thier pics and having little chats with them, I kinda sat back and evaluated what I have done. Yeah I have had some awesome jobs, seem some amazing places, have some of the best friends I could dream for and an amazing Son, but, for some reason I feel unfulfilled.<br /><br />I know I wanted to travel more, party a lot more and be considerably more stable before bringing a child into the world, but sometimes life just throws you a curve ball. I am a huge believer in fate, everything happens for a reason and all that, but just sometimes, a little heads up would be nice.Flicstixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01079146039194072100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14621616.post-43011366609719580952007-04-30T22:21:00.000+01:002007-04-30T22:44:04.214+01:00The Wonderer Returns<div><div><div>So after a VERY long time of not posting I AM BACK!!<br /></div><div>The new and very much improved FLICSTIX is back in action and ready to shock you all - or just myself with the usual ramblings.<br /><br />So, I will get the most shocking news out of the way first.

However, the ones who are close to me, have stuck around through it all, from the start and despite a lot of things, they are here now.<br /><br />This leads me to one very strong point, which I feel has caused a lot of completely unnecessary heartache.<br /><br />I have a lot of 'friends' who live very close to me, and I see on a fairly regular basis. Now, these people have been my friends since I moved to High Wycombe, 6 years ago. So, it makes me wonder, how a random meeting of another friend, who lives so far away but has totally proved herself to be a true friend, creates such issues amongst other people (or one person in particular).<br /><br />I think now, I am at the age where I can call myself an adult, (some may well disagree, especially when my alter ego comes out after a few drinks) and therefore am more than capable of controlling my feelings, behaving in an adult fashion, and conducting an adult conversation - perhaps about said feelings. So, I cant help but wonder, why is it some people (person) find it difficult to talk about feelings they may well have, and instead conduct 'Chinese whispers' in order to get a message to me.<br />I absolutely understand how the unfortunate people who got roped into playing messenger must feel, and I would like to make it perfectly clear, NO HARD FEELINGS.<br /><br />I think I am just disappointed that I could not have been approached direct, to hear it first hand, instead of third. I am also disappointed, that there has even had to be any kind of issue at all, especially as I am not under the impression that I have any significance in a certain persons life anymore, and do not understand why they cannot behave in an adult fashion, and at the very least, just deal with any issues they may have.<br />Because, honestly, I COULD NOT CARE LESS.<br /><br />I am happy in my life now, and I value my friends more than ever, my real ones especially. But even more than all of that, I totally value the amazing relationship that I am fortunate enough to say that I have.<br />I have a man that is perfect in everyway, funny, outgoing, excellent job, great prospects, is gorgeous, and to top it all off, is my best friend. Even if, for whatever reason, things turned out for the worse between us, I know, I would still be treated with respect, and we would both be capable of behaving like adults.<br /><br />I guess what I am trying to say is, if there is an issue amongst a group of friends, you should be able enough to deal with those issues like a man, (or woman) and the true friends out of that group, will stick by you, defend you, and feel terrible for the position they would have been put in, when really, they should not have been involved in the first place!I am grateful for those who do defend me in any circumstance, and appreciate the real friendship I am fortunate enough to have.<br /><br />Sorry to rant, but had to get that off my chest.Flicstixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01079146039194072100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14621616.post-1134640004087657092005-12-15T09:45:00.000+00:002005-12-15T09:46:44.100+00:00Noddy....is a CUNT!<a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/1600/noddy.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/320/noddy.jpg" border="0" /></a>Flicstixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01079146039194072100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14621616.post-1134565968236858112005-12-14T11:28:00.000+00:002005-12-14T13:12:48.276+00:00Long Time Coming!<a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/1600/Budapest%20-%20Hilton%20-%20clean.0.jpg"><img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/320/Budapest%20-%20Hilton%20-%20clean.0.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />So, I have not updated since the 22nd of November... OOOPS!!!<br />Not that there are too many people who are particularly bothered by this I am sure, but well, WTF, I am going to ramble on for a bit anyway!<br /><br />Hmmm, what has happened this past few weeks..... Well, Budapest.<br />What can I say? It was awesome! Lorna and I had such a great time. We walked absolutely miles, which inturn required me to purchase some new shoes, (that was the only reason I bought them... honest!) saw some beautiful sights, and generally got drunk and had fun!<br /><br />On our first night we bumped into a group of about 12 guys who were over there from London, so naturally, we tagged along with them. I dont think Budapest has been the same since!<br />We found a hungarian Karaoke bar, that was probably one of the funniest things I have ever seen. Hungarians singing along (well, more like howling really) in 'english' to various songs... hilarious! Tim, Olly, Oz and the rest of the guys were shakin' their thang, drinking loads and just being generaly brilliant! It was a great night - pictures will follow!! (Some of you - <strong>BeWarned</strong>!!!)<br /><br />The second day was somewhat quieter! We were both so hungover and tired from not getting to sleep until about 5am, that it was a relatively tame one. Few beers bit of (rubbish) food then off to bed for an early night!<br /><br />We continued with the shopping theme for the entire holiday, visiting the Christmas markets, which btw, were beautiful, and of course, it would have been rude to not go into one or two of the high street boutiques!!<br /><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/1600/4022.jpg"><img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/320/4022.jpg" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/1600/Budapest%20-%20Hilton%20-%20clean.0.jpg"><img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/320/Budapest%20-%20Hilton%20-%20clean.0.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br />The next few days were a bit of a blur, particularly the final day on the Sunday. We went out to the shops, again, and had pretty much finished everything we wanted to do by about lunchtime. We headed towards a bar we had found on the first day called Pauls pub, for a quick drink and to get out of the rain. 7 hours later we are still there, and pretty hammered at this point! We decided rather than go back to the hotel and glam up, we would stay out and make a night of it. We certainly did that!!<br />35 Irish men on a stag weekend are a definate ingrediant for a good night out!<br />Again another very late night, which was perhaps not the best idea when we were flying back to England the next mornig.<br />Disaster on the last night, as I lost my purse, with all money and credit cards it in (at least is was the last day though I suppose!) and trying to get hold of the Boyf who was in Sri Lanka so he could cancel his card that I had been trusted with, proved pretty impossible!! We also, booked a taxi to take us to the airport the morning of our flight, which we thought was very efficient of us. It started very well, turned up on time, took us with no delays to the airport, so we head on in with our bags... only to find we have been dropped at the wrong airport!!!!<br />WICKED!<br />So we have to rush to find another taxi - you would think there would be more at an airport - 6k in the opposite direction to try and make our flight!!!<br />Once we got to the correct airport, the hangover really started to kick in so we pretty much just monged out until we could get on the plane!<br />thankfully, Lorna's parents were there at the other end to collect us, and we made it home safe and sound!!!<br /><br />I will soon put up a picture gallery of various events of the holiday - it is easier to describe it via picture..... just think, drink, dancing, rubbish food, more drink and shopping - that would sum it all up quite nicely!!Flicstixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01079146039194072100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14621616.post-1132671617831186002005-11-22T14:55:00.000+00:002005-11-22T15:02:32.160+00:00Separated at Birth?<a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/1600/hart-melissa-joan-photo-melissa-joan-hart-6232055.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 188px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 208px" height="208" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/320/hart-melissa-joan-photo-melissa-joan-hart-6232055.jpg" width="258" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/1600/photo14.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 192px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 208px" height="208" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/320/photo14.jpg" width="240" border="0" /></a><br /><br /> <a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/1600/hart-melissa-joan-photo-xxl-melissa-joan-hart-6223561.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 189px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 258px" height="320" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/320/hart-melissa-joan-photo-xxl-melissa-joan-hart-6223561.jpg" width="194" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />(Nice tan lines too btw!)Flicstixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01079146039194072100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14621616.post-1132653693004021802005-11-22T09:49:00.000+00:002005-11-22T10:04:20.313+00:00BUDAPEST - HERE WE COME!!!I am so excited!! Tomorrow I am flying off to Budapest for 5 days with one of my bestest friends Lorna!! We booked this in September, and got the deal of the century! £100 each includes flights and 3* hotel!! WICKED!!! Of cours, for the past 2 months, we have talked about nothing but our trip, and now, it i the hugely important task of packing a suitcase!! Hmmmmm, What to wear, what to wear? <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/5day.shtml?world=0059">Well as the weater is like this</a>, I think it only sensible, we dress like this: <a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/1600/219618.jpg"><img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/320/219618.jpg" border="0" /></a><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/1600/219622.jpg"><img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/320/219622.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/1600/219642.jpg"><img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/320/219642.jpg" border="0" /></a>They have the most amazing Xmas markets on there at the moment, and of course, we have already sussed out the places that do whole days of FREE wine tasting!! It is going to be so cool, 60p a pint, bit of ice skating, (Marnie, I know you are a fan) and of course, the shopping!!!<br /><br />I think we will have to cope with the fact that the food is pretty much only meat and veg or deep fried meat and veg, but I am sure with a few beers it will all taste great!<br /><br />So, basically, after today, this post will not be updated, but I will have some stories to tell once I get back, I am sure!!!<br /><br />BUDAPEST - BRACE YOURSELF!Flicstixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01079146039194072100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14621616.post-1132567180744207372005-11-21T09:54:00.000+00:002005-11-21T09:59:40.746+00:00Marlow rah!So, whilst killing a bit of time on Saturday afternoon waiting for the boyf to get his hair cut, I met up with Lorna for a bit of a mooch around Marlow. We noticed a new shop had opened, so thought it would be rude not to have a look!<br />Think - Wycombe Market at Marlow prices!<br />Prime example - <a href="http://flicstix.blogspot.com/2005/11/ebay-aka-buy-my-crap.html">you may remember my rant a couple of weeks ago about some boots I bought on Ebay.</a> Well, the exact same boots were in this shop - for double the price!!!<br /><br />Honestly, stick SL7 infront of the postcode, and the prices rocket for anything!!! £4.50 for a glass of wine for example.<br />No Crowne Plaza, NO!!!Flicstixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01079146039194072100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14621616.post-1132566457208291352005-11-21T09:43:00.000+00:002005-11-21T09:47:37.223+00:00All of your Xmas shopping will be done...My great friend Lorna sent me <a href="http://www.oxfamunwrapped.com/">this link </a>this morning, which is AWESOME!!! It is a fab idea for your Xmas gifts, with items starting from as little as £5- so something for every budget!!<br /><br />This is one of those things, that will give you a warm and fuzzy feeling arounnd Christmas time, and definately something we should all consider doing. As much as those new boots, or that perfume would be great, this is also a time of year to remeber those who are considerably less fortunate than ourselves!<br /><br />Please have a gander at <a href="http://www.oxfamunwrapped.com/">this link</a>, even if you only buy one thing, the cheapest thing on there - it would help out the people who need it most - and stop you from getting that lump of coal next year!!!!Flicstixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01079146039194072100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14621616.post-1132158832362227552005-11-16T16:28:00.000+00:002005-11-16T16:33:52.366+00:00BOLLOX!I was on MSN.com earlier today - yes, I should have been working - and i happened upon this little article. Can I just ask - what year are we living in now? I did not realise it was still expected for women to act pathetic and needy in order to cater for insecure, pathetic men. Of course, this does not apply to all cases - but as this article was intended as 'relationship advice' or 'how to bag a man' I can honestly say,. I have never in my life read more absolute trout!!!<br />If you can bare to, please read on and you will see what I mean!<br /><br /><strong>NEEDED:</strong> Men need to feel needed. It gives them a sense of purpose in the relationship. Sometimes, when women act as if they don’t need a man, they end up alone and lonely. Of course, this is not to say that you shouldn’t be a strong, assertive woman. It means you should show your vulnerabilities, too. It’ll make him feel less intimidated because he feels vulnerable too, despite the way he may act. <strong>Rule #1: Show your vulnerabilities to attract a man.</strong><br /><br />DESIRED: Men need to feel desired as much as you do. Many women make the mistake of playing hard to get. Yes, men need a challenge, but they also need their egos stroked. They have the same insecurities as women do, but usually don’t have a group of empathetic ears to rely on after a date. They need to feel that they are attractive to you – that you think they are sexy, handsome, fit, etc.<strong>Rule #2: Compliment his looks, and you’ll look better to him.</strong><br /><br /><strong>CHALLENGED:</strong> Men are pursuers – it’s in their genes. Therefore, in order to attract one, you must have a strong sense of yourself: The biggest turnoff for a man is a woman who is insecure and needs constant reassurance from him. In addition, a little mystery is enticing to a man. Don’t give it all up too soon. Let him want to learn more and more about you.<strong>Rule #3: Walk into a room like you own it, keep a few secrets to yourself, and be flirtatious to catch a man’s attention. </strong><br /><br /><strong>FUNNY, SMART, INTERESTING:</strong> Men gain a large part of their sense of self from being deemed to exhibit these three characteristics. Ask any man and he will likely tell you that he feels wonderful when the woman he’s interested in laughs at his jokes.<strong>Rules #4, #5, and #6: Listen attentively, nod frequently, compliment him on how smart he is, and laugh at his jokes! </strong><br /><br /><strong>IMPORTANT AND POWERFUL:</strong> Men need to feel as if they are the most important person in your life. Moreover, there is virtually nothing more demeaning to a man than to be told off in public, told what to do, or to not be the center of your world when you are together. Of course, this isn’t to say you have to sit there looking pretty and ignore his bantering – just pick a private place to address personal issues, even if it means waiting, and speak respectfully, which you should expect in return. <strong>Rules #7 and #8: When you are together, don’t look around at other men, compliment another man on his looks, or talk about other men. It doesn’t take much to make a man feel fantastic. </strong><br /><br />In return, you’ll reap the rewards of your investment – a man who treats you just the same too.<br /><br />Is it just me, or did we just take a huge step back in time??Flicstixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01079146039194072100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14621616.post-1132158495036880872005-11-16T16:18:00.000+00:002005-11-21T10:10:40.656+00:0015 Things That Never Happened On Star TrekWhilst surfing the Net earlier, I stumbled across this little gem - I thought it was pretty giggle worthy! I am a geek, I know!<br /><br />1. When informed of a crew dispute in the swimming pool on the deck below, Spock says: "It's like a bridge over troubled water," and falls about laughing.<br /><br />2. Uhura puts the Klingons on hold listening to Greensleeves for 10 minutes, causing them to destroy the Enterprise in sheer frustration.<br /><br />3. Mr Scott's pessimistic estimate of only being able to manage 30mph by the middle of next week turns out to be accurate, and the Enterprise is toast.<br /><br />4. Starfleet remove red jumpers from the uniform code, after which the mortality rate of senior crew members on away missions increases dramatically.<br /><br />5. Phaser gets long overdue development to supplement 'stun' and 'kill' options with 'a bit winded', 'kneed groin', 'speeded-up Benny Hill-style running about', 'morning-after-bad-curry' and 'drag queen.'<br /><a href="http://www.msndvdrental.com/startrek"></a><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/1600/phaser.jpg"><img style="CURSOR: hand" height="70" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/320/phaser.jpg" width="225" border="0" /></a><br /><br />6. Picard puts up signs on the Bridge and Holodeck reading: "No running, pushing, bombing or heavy petting."<br /><br />7. Kirk discovers that when peering into his little viewer, Spock is actually just playing Minesweeper and Tetris.<br /><br />8. During a major space battle, the Enterprise shields remain intact, no wiring comes loose from the ceiling, and no sudden but containable fires break out.<br /><br />9. For a laugh on April Fools Day, Worf plays a tape of an incoming Borg vessel on the main viewer, causing everyone else to abandon ship.<br /><br />10. Having made the exciting discovery of a brand new lifeform, the crew is disappointed to find out that it is, in fact, an entirely familiar lifeform wearing a funny hat.<br /><a href="http://www.msndvdrental.com/startrek"></a><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/1600/enterprise-3view.jpg"><img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/320/enterprise-3view.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br />11. There's a bizarre time-warp incident that has nothing whatsoever to do with the 20th century.<br /><br />12. Electrocutions from malfunctioning Bridge panels are banished forever when some resourceful Engineering bod takes it upon himself to install fuses.<br /><br />13. Captured by a hostile and apparently invulnerable alien race, the crew manage to bribe their way out with sweets.<br /><br />14. Doors on all Federation starships inexplicably stop going 'pssht', which forces Starfleet to order all crew members to make the noise with their mouths.<br /><br />15. In one unprecedented day on the Enterprise, Mr Scott fails to mention the laws of physics, Dr McCoy avoids going all wild-eyed and melodramatic, Mr Spock's eyebrow remains unraised, and Captain Kirk avoids snogging the new female arrival, while also keeping his shirt on and untorn.<br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/1600/Spock001.jpg"><img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1534/1329/320/Spock001.jpg" border="0" /></a>Flicstixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01079146039194072100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14621616.post-1132070241313211442005-11-15T15:55:00.000+00:002005-11-15T15:57:21.313+00:00Final note for today...This is definately to be expanded on....<br />I have a very talented friend who I went to school with who produces his own art work and photography pieces. I have the link to his own website, and I have to be honest, a lot of his work is amazing!!<br />It is all for sale, so feel free to have a browse. <a href="http://www.eyetakephotos.moonfruit.com/">This is the link </a>- I will come back to this in a LOT more detail soon!!!Flicstixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01079146039194072100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14621616.post-1132070108249486552005-11-15T15:48:00.000+00:002005-11-15T15:55:08.250+00:00Pub-tastic!I am poor!<br /><br />Working my fingers to the bone 12 hours a day clearly isnt enough to keep me in the lifestyle to which I have become accustomed! I therefore, have got myself a second job.<br />In a lot of ways I am really quite pleased! The nights I dont go to the gym, I am now working in a pub, rather than drinking in one or vegging in front of the TV, so I feel as though I am being considerably more productive, and of course the extra chashish every month will help!<br />So I went on down there last night to meet the landlady and some of the yocals, and to be honest, they all seemed like a pretty nice bunch! I am working my first full shift tonight, which I am quite nervous about as it is quiz night, and will probably be quite busy. not that I mind that, I just dont want to look like a plum when I am standing for ages searching for the right button to press on the till!<br />So, Tuesdays, quiz night, Wednesdays, Jazz night and some point over the weekend they have a live band too - so all in all, it should be quite an entertaining place to be.<br /><br />Hopefully it will all work out fine - although I did have a random dream last night about smashing funny shaped glasses etc.... no cheese before bed for me!!<br /><br />Any way - will let you know if I am a disaster or not - I mean it is not like I have never done it before, how hard can it be....famous last words???Flicstixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01079146039194072100noreply@blogger.com0
