I woke up this morning from a dream where I was a prison guard sleeping with and stroking the penis of an inmate. The inmate was my old Uni lover T..
T has sent some flirty texts these last three weeks. Knowing I was heading to Melbourne and trying to make an opportunity for us to catch up. He requires energy that I do not have. So I avoided a catch up this last visit to the city. But goddammit – I keep dreaming about him attached to some terrific penis!
On checking my email this morning I have two messages in my inbox from men on the dating site that Kate was using. A man who fixes things for a living.. and a man who is a registered florist and online psychic.
Both look like serial killers. I have noticed all the country men here look like serial killers in photographs.
Not a lot of smiling going on.
I have responded to both – though with a little more encouragement to the man who fixes things. He has used the acronym ‘lol’ twice in a five line email.. but I assure myself that if we meet in person it is unlikely he would say ‘lol’ in everyday speech.
I think all of these are related.. the psychic and the dream.. telling me I need to find a good looking penis.. or get a job in a prison..

Nobody would understand the pressures of the modern day single woman. Nobody. It’s just a minefield.

Go for the man who can fix things…then you two can come and he can fix my roof…I have a modest leak. Stroking a penis in your dreams hey? Well things can’t be that bad if all you are doing in the dream is stroking it!

Don’t you believe it. I have noticed the use of LOL coming into use especially from the younger ages, but not exclusively.
I hope the Mr. fixit serial killer look alike is a peaceful soul who means no harm. x

Until recently I did not text, except with my children. Until recently I did not use “lol.” The good news is I still dream of the male member with regular frequency. This is healthy.
Please stay away from serial killers.
Did you have fun in the city?
How do I get invited to Kate’s blog now that she’s all private? (Hoping this gets to her or you get me her email address.)

Katemate.. right on sister.. [you are private?]
Lill.. love.. it’s always the same penis.. isn’t that funny? [or limited?]
Grump.. I was hoping that it had skipped this generation and was just a sole anomaly of the under 30’s.. but no such luck.. dammit.
S.. you make me smile.. [please refrain from using lol here] I am not sure about Kate?!
Will check and confer via e-telegraph x
Gals.. the fix it man emailed me telling me he thought my job sounded “changlanging”.. took me a full four minutes to figure out what that meant.. eekkk
