Things Are Looking Up

First off-Happy Thanksgiving to all the Americans (and everyone else!). I have only had a few minutes access to internet at a time, so sorry this blog has been a bit quiet and my comments few, both on my blog and on yours.

Secondly- I HAVE AN INTERVIEW TOMORROW! They're a good-looking company situated internationally, but my local office would be in England (which will, indeed, complicate my life a alot.) Let's call them Company ? for now (suggestions for a new name are welcome (since X and Y are already taken)!)

Thirdly- met Mr. Y this afterenoon already. We met up, had coffee, and did a little shopping together. I have to be honest here-the good is, the magic is still there. The bad news is, the magic is still there.

I am now hurriedly throwing together this blog before beautifying myself for our dinner. Plans include: Biore, bubble bath, face mask, sit-ups, and a round of masturbation to take the edge off (or to give relief from the most highly-charged coffee-drinking experience of my young life thus far).

More from me later...maybe

If you don't hear from me soon, some interesting things have happened or we are (still!) having too good a time.

And did I mention he presented me with an early Christmas present in the form of a beautiful platinum bracelet? Mmmmm....

-H.

2 Helen, there are times when you just go with it. Even I know that. Have fun. Happy Thanksgiving. Yes, it's really me, and that's my advice. Screw logic, and reasonable living. It's Thanksgiving. You've had a tough run, enjoy yourself.

3 Aah, nothing says "good to see you" like jewelery thats worth $641 / oz ... wait $642 ... $643 ... £644 ... Happy thanksgiving (even though as a brit I see it as nothing more than a cunning attempt to sneak in one last party before xmas!)

4 Best wishes to you on your interview. Knock 'em dead. Once they're begging you to take the job, then you can decide whether you want to move. And best wishes in other aspects of your life. May it all work out as you want. Happy Thanksgiving!!!

6 aaaaahhh, highly charged with caffeine and sexual tension... and anticipating a lovely evening. And a bit o' platinum ain't too shabby, neither! Hmmmm... I'm thinking it's round about half past midnight or so there (or half past one?); wonder what our Miss Helen has to blog about tomorrow???

7 Happy Turkey day, Helen. :-)

9 Best of luck, love. And if things really get bad, you can always hock the jewelry. No, no. Kidding. Kidding!

10 Happy Thanksgiving Miss Helen and I hope you get that job in England. Just think! No more Volvo Man if you do!

11 All the best for your interview. You could call it Company N (n for new job)? Platinum! Mmmm... indeed!

12 Best of luck on your job interview, Helen. I shall keep my fingers crossed for you.

13 Hi Helen, i cant stop reading your blog! I grew up not that far from Winchester so i know it probaly isnt the best place to be for thansgiving! abs x

14 Wow, it's certainly been a busy time for you. I think you should call the new company ZedCo. And I think you should show us the platinum bracelet. <lecture> If the magic is really still there, you should probably have a talk with Partner Unit. </lecture>

15 Happy day after and days to come!

Posted by: Ted at November 28, 2003 05:56 PM (Qj620)

16 Helen, Hope you had a happy turkey day as well. Sounds like you did. Not to sound prudish at all, but I'll echo David's sentiments by saying that you need to talk about Mr. Y to Partner Unit. If you ever cared about Partner Unit you should show him some respect and let him in on what's going on. He may be mad now, but in the long run he'll appreciate you more for it. Its the responsible thing to do. As an aside, how can you stand typing out "Partner Unit" everytime? I always like to abbreviate things, but there's just no abbreviating that term without having to refer to him as PU (pew) or simply...The Unit, which sounds like somebody's pet name for their naughty bits, or perhaps a wrestling pseudonym.

17 That whole "masterbation to take the pressure off" thing; wow! It really works! Thank you!!

18 Good luck, babe...be careful...and, ENJOY yourself! ;^)

19 ok, everyone...is it just me, or are y'all starting to worry?? does anyone have an address or phone number for mr. y? lol......i sure hope this silence from helen is because she is having an awesome time...

Posted by: at November 29, 2003 04:05 AM (yh1rE)

20 Halloooooooooooooooooooooo??? Helen??? Have you absconded to Tahiti with Mr.Y? Talk to us, girl!

Posted by: jean at November 29, 2003 05:27 AM (Af9+w)

21 Happy belated Thanksgiving! And let us know what you thought of the interview. It's always hard for me to seem enthusiastic and upbeat about new opportunties when a layoff is still fresh and painful. Hopefully you're way better at interviewing than I am! As for the Mr. Y stuff, I'm paralyzed. Is no news good news? Bad news? Just...news? Or even just...no news? My little mind reels. Hugs!

Posted by: Sedalina at November 29, 2003 12:34 PM (eKujN)

22 OK, if we don't hear from you in the next 24 hours I'm sending a search party.

Posted by: James at November 30, 2003 01:41 AM (0SrUW)

23 I am starting to get some serious concern going on here....Jim, Don, have you gotten jealous and taken off with her?? If anyone has heard from H., please....let us off the hook....we are getting worried (or maybe I am jealous that she is quite possibly having the most awesome sex ever).....

Posted by: MiMo at November 30, 2003 03:06 AM (BscK7)

24 Still on the run?

Posted by: madhu at November 30, 2003 05:16 AM (jktP/)

25 It wasn't me. Not this time anyway. Don't worry, folks. She already said she was going to have intermittent internet access. Helen's all growed up and an experienced world traveler and she's visiting people/places she's familiar with. Just relax. She'll be back soon regaling us with tales of her adventures.

Posted by: Jim at November 30, 2003 02:48 PM (fkewd)

26 Happy Thanksgiving to you, too. I hope the interview went well. Hmm, first it's coffee with good-looking company, then it's diner with the same good-looking company, later an interview with another good-looking company, and now it seems some good-looking company or other has abducted you. ;-)

27 ..not worried, per se; just miss her smiling, er, text. Plus, I want the lowdown on the last few days!!! Wanna know if she's happy...

Posted by: jean at December 01, 2003 01:04 AM (Af9+w)

28 ok..I am starting to get a little freaked out...yes, Jim, I know she's a big girl, but....damn....she's out past curfew!!!!

29 As I wend my way through my blogroll I'm noticing that quite a few bloggers haven't posted in a day or two or three. I'm sure Helen's fine, taking advantage of the long Holiday weekend (yeah, I know, she's in Sveden; but she's still a thanksgiving American, gosh darn it) and having a great time. Yeah, I'm sure she's fine. No, I really am! What...?!

Posted by: Tuning Spork at December 01, 2003 04:32 AM (4sM+s)

30 Hi Helen! I have been lack in my blogging also, so don't feel bad. My mind has been dealing with personal issues and the holidays which I am not all that crazy about. I just wanted to drop a quick note and say, "Hello!" More later---I promise.

31 A quick comment to ROB... even though as a brit I see it as nothing more than a cunning attempt to sneak in one last party before xmas! That is very true and in New Orleans we take full advantage of every chance we can get to have another party. Hell, let us face it... We love to party in this city, but it is a shame that most tourist never get to see the nicer side of NOLA (New Orleans). There is so much more than the French Quarter & drunken college students to our wonderful city. The Quarter only represents a small percentage of this city. We are also one of the few American cities that you can visit and enjoy doing "WALIKNG" tours, which is something most American cities can not offer at all. From what I understand, Europeans often dislike touring American cities because of the amount of vehicle touring you have to do... {Hum, perhaps I should get a job with the tourism boardÂ…} So, if anyone is in the states and can swing by NOLA let me know. I need an excuse to party and show a few friends around our city!
