• Wilde (y) Things- Part One

  Posted: January 27, 2009, 12:22 pm by Wildeyearnings

  (n) Teenager - oxford dictionary: person between the age of thirteen and nineteen ( prone to strange and excessive habits ) really :)
  
  (n) Teenage girl- Wildeys dictionary- out of control, petulant, alien life form that inhabits the body of a previously docile sweet young thing.
  
  (n) Teenage angst *- Urban Dictionary- Someone (most likely a teenager) who is very attached to their sadness, and think they are the only person out there who has it bad.
  
  New year, new things, new developments... Wildey is a father.
  
  Ok if you wanna be technical about it- Wildey is a father figure. I have my 18 year old kid sister living with me for 6 months before she goes to Uni. Its not like I volunteered for the task but seeing as I'm the only family living in Kenya... I 'graciously' surrendered to the inevitable.
  
  I haven't really lived with my family since I was shipped off to British boarding school for my A-levels back in the 90's so this is a whole new experience for me.
  
  Also, whats up with teenage girls? I don't get it!
  
  Someone who was once a teenage girl, I need help (preferably boarding facilities- but advice will do for now).
  
  I love my kid sister- I do. But apparently evey once in a while (which is pretty much every two hours) some thing takes over her body and proceeds to scare the living daylights out of me.
  
  Case in point:
  Yesterday I had to succumb to a half-hour lecture from this previously sweet? much younger sister, much much smaller ( 5 foot 2 anyone?) ;) gargoyle over the sheer evilness of leaving the toilet seat up/hair in the shower (in my defence it was ONE microscopic strand) and using her shampoo (I only opened the bottle to sniff it I swear!).
  
  In the two weeks since she's invaded, I mean moved in... she has also:
  
  a) Maxed my credit card on carvings,paintings, ornaments, new linen etc... to 'modernise' my house.
  
  b) Encouraged her equally young friends to spend each evening at the house waiting for me to come home whereupon they begin to simper/flirt/serenade etc... me. ( Every. Night.People!) I now appreciate the joys of working late into the night. Can I get an Amen.
  Of course this denizen of 'sweetness and light' has conveniently neglected to inform them of my gayness ( proven I might add) and is really getting a kick out of my efforts to escape the progesterone fueled horde.
  
  c) Oh yes and speaking of gayness et al.. my little darling of delight has also scared away my erm...partner (just being polite here). Meaning no happy liasons, no mutual fulfilment, no ecstatic periods of extended appreciation of each others attributes and no sex.
  
  
  
  
  I know!!!!!!!!!
  
  
  
  On the bright side, I get to bond with her, we share a laugh together and my house is always clean :) and now...'modern looking' (whatever that is).
  
  So are all teenage girls like this? Or is mine just a mutated life form?

  *creeping in a bit shamefaced at how late in the month this post is*
  
  Ermm... Happy New Year everyone!!! .
  
  I am still on blogosphere... fortunately for the girls and boys who all enjoy my deep intellectual narratives... LOLZ!... Lets face it folks, y'all are here for the SMUT. And I shall not disappoint...thats my New years Resolution.
  
  I do hope your holiday season was uneventful and/or memorable. I cannot fail to mention my dear friend on blogosphere, Billy, whose dear husband passed away on the 24th December. My thoughts and love are with you. Billy its lovely to see you here.
  
  I'm a bit sad Bush is gone... because he was the only comedic bright spot in my otherwise mundane life. ( I'm trying to keep a straight face saying this...its ...almost...worki...oh! who am I kidding!- So Long! Farewell! Its time to say Good bye! Open up the gay bars folks- W is history!)
  
  I changed jobs earlier this month- hence the disappearing act- was getting busy settled in (and trying to beat the firewalls on this damn work internet thing!). All in all I'm truly thankful for this year and looking forward to even better things.
  
  See you all soon!

Blah blah blah
