Since my fabulous ex, J, is Greek, it's natural for me to be avoiding anything remotely Greekish at the moment. However, I'm surrounded by Greek stuff now!
On my recovery trip to Bali during my birthday with a great friend, we HAD to stop in a Greek restaurant just because there weren't any other cafes of restaurants nearby. We had been trying to avoid that place since I spied it on the very first night we were there.
Then last Tuesday, I went to Borders to buy something to read during my upcoming solo trip to Cambodia. (Btw the chick lit book I bought turned out to be one I owned but received a black hole syndrome). I was reaching for the amazing break up book when my eyes were caught by this massive hard cover called "Greek Mythology". Fine. I took a stroll to the travel section and I was amazed by the masses of "Athens", "Cyclades", "Greece" popping all over the place. They were everywhere! Even in spots that they weren't supposed to be in, like just beside "Turkey"! It was a either a plot to introduce me to a new form of mental torture or Greece just really needs the tourists' money. For crying out loud, the bookstore is supposed to be my place of happiness!
And just a moment ago, I innocently clicked on the "Next Blog" link on the top of my blog. Surely it'll be a random blog on cooking or someone's artistic musing... Really who has time to blog nowadays?... It was a fecking Greek blog. Sigh. FML
When u don't notice them they aren't around. When ur trying to avoid any contact, they're everywhere!
Why? Why? Why? Hello, is anyone up there listening to me? I've been in the 'Stupid' queue for a while now, I'm ready to go.
