Return to Innocence

Haven't been around much at all lately. Been working lots. Every weekend since October has been full... And there is no end in sight. These are busy times. It is good though - I am not bored like I used to be. No time for that.

Last weekend Bam came to town. She is a girl I have known for like 12 years or so - and at one time... I was her legal Guardian. Really this was in name only, as I was only 21 at the time, and not very responsible myself. I tried I guess, but I was so messy myself, it just all ended very badly and I have haboured a lot of guilt over the years about this. I always felt like I let her down, because no one else was going to help her.

Now it is years later, and she is great. She is married, owns a home, graduated from University and is not a licensed teacher. She is great.
And then she came to Toronto for a visit. It was a good weekend. She went out the Friday night with the Roomie - he took her on a tour of gay town. I didn't go as I was going to go to work on Saturday morning while they slept.

It turns out that I started to play some video game ( WORMS ARMAGEDDON if you care) and Bam woke up earlier than expected. She asked what I was playing and if she could try.

We began the video gaming weekend.

She didn't go shopping, I didn't go to work. We played video games all day and ordered in Pizza. We did manage to watch some TV with Roomie for a bit... And also managed to do so drinking too.

Sunday - see Saturday - except we ordered Thai.

It was a weekend of pajamas and liquor and take out food - and of course the Worms. It was great.

We managed to pry ourselves away by the evening, as her Husband returned from some Bachelor Party in the Muskokas. I finally got to meet him and he seems great. I do like him.

It was a lot of bonding and talking this weekend, which was great.

I can't wait for another weekend like this.
