Ik heb zelf een nieuwe einde geschreven (quit short maar oke)
wat vinden jullie ervan:?
Monday 25 December
9st 5 (oh God, have turned into Santa Claus, Christmas pudding or similar), alcohol units 2 (total triumph), cigarettes 2 (ditto), calories 2657 (almost entirely gravy), totally insane Christmas gifts 12, number of Christmas gifts with any point to them whatsoever 0, philosophical reflections on the meaning of the Virgin Birth 0, number of years since self was Virgin, hmmmm
9.55 a.m. Staggered downstairs after a horrible night. God, mum and dad had fight all night. After all, mum and dad were a couple again and Julio leaves with another wife. Dad beamed all morning. I was glad for him, but I wouldn’t think of my own boyfriend-problem. ‘Oh, hello, darling,’ said dad, noticing me. ‘Now, what are you going to put on for Christmas Day?’
‘This,’ I muttered sulkily.
‘Oh, don’t be silly, Bridget, you can’t wear that on Christmas Day.’
Nice, your own mother doesn’t like your snowflake-dress. Hmmmf, feel v. sad without boyfriend. Maybe must call Mark, ask for some company on this sad morning.
1.45 p.m. I mustn’t feel low said mum to me. I can’t believe she said that! Gosh, she is so in heaven again with dad that she completely forgets my problems with Mark Darcy.
I hate her, I hate dad, I hate Mark Darcy (that bastard), I hate Daniel Cleaver (No, I don’t miss him at all), and most of all I hate myself.
2.30 p.m. Still hate myself (should get a how-do-I-love-myself-again-course).
2.45 p.m. Jiiiehaa! I love the postmen (or actual Dan)! Just get a card from him (you know, the guy who lives below me). He invited me to have dinner at 9 o’clock. Yess! Must get ready now. What should I wear? O No, I forgot, I already have a bad hair day since Thursday!
Okay Bridget, Slow down. All right, I know, Dan also has v. many spots in his face.
And he can’t even hide them with a cover stick. Ha! So I would look better on our date.
7.00 p.m. I’m sitting quite nervous next to mum and dad, (Still beaming), and check my hairdo for the 15th time. (Doh, I want to look good on a date with someone else than Mark or Daniel!)
7.05 p.m. It’s time to leave. Hope I will have a great diner (including sweet kisses from Dan), and that finally I have found the right guy to live with.
I’m the most happy, beautiful and loveable woman in the whole world!
NOU??
