Amy, Amy, Amy.....

So 

When I last left you 

I was just home from Belfast 

I took yesterday off

And only left the house to walk the dogs

And do a bit of food shopping 

I had last heard from The Plumber on Sunday

And he said he would contact me when I was home

For some reason 

I had a feeling that he wouldn't though

And I didn't get my hopes up

I live by the rule never to expect anything from anyone

Because then I am never disappointed

But lo and behold

Last night he texted

Did you get a chance to see what's on in the cinema?

Ok

Deep breathes

Try and behave like a normal human being 

Hey yea I did, is there anything you'd like to see?

Then instead of texting back

He rang!

I turned the sound off the tv

Try to stay calm

And answered the phone

Hello?

Hello Ruby?

Hey how are you?

Good, you?

Yea good 

Was wondering if there is anything you'd like to see in the cinema?

What about Jurassic World?

I was thinking of seeing Amy, would you be interested?

Oh yea I would like to see that, do you know what time it's on at?

I'll check and get back to you

Ok talk soon

Bye

Amy is the documentary about Amy Winehouse

To be honest 

I was deliberately avoiding seeing this movie

As I though it would be too upsetting

I'm a huge Amy fan

And love her music

But I found watching her demise so very hard

And the fact that she had similar problems to me just makes it all the more difficult

But I will go

I was actually surprised that he wanted to see this movie 

If he likes Amy Winehouse

Then we have something in common straight away

And the other good thing is that he rings when he says he will

I like that

He's reliable 

So the plan is to go to the cinema tonight

And people I am a bag of nerves

But it's also very exciting 

I feel like a teenager again!

How I wish you all could come to my house and help me get ready

We would have such fun

And it would definitely help my nerves

 But again

I'm going to have no expectations 

I'll just go with an open mind 

And an open heart

And see how it goes  

At least we will have something to talk about 

What with going to see Amy

But the other thing is

That I'm not 100% sure what he looks like

I mean 

I have seen him

From a distance 

But I don't know if I could pick him out in a line up

So that will be interesting

Again

I don't want to get my hopes up

But I do hope he's a nice kind guy

I hope we can talk easily

And I hope he's a good and decent person

I'm not terribly fussed about looks

Obviously I either will or won't be attracted to him

But I'm more concerned with his personality 

So now I have the whole day to wait 

I'm seeing Mary later 

And have to go in to town 

So plenty to keep me occupied in the mean time

I have my outfit picked out 

Which I will show you later 

And of course as ever

I will keep you posted....
