Chip shop


I was walking home from work this evening when all of a sudden out of nowhere came this urge to get tea from the chip shop; I don't know why, I didn't have food on my mind or anything like that. In fact my mind was just kind of rolling free, I was looking forward to getting home and seeing my baby when the chip shop floated into my thoughts out of nowhere. Isn't it strange that once you have such a thought you just cannot get it out of your mind? For the rest of my walk home variations of pie and chips, fish and chips and chip butties were making me feel so hungry my stomach was rumbling, it was crazy.
When I eventually arrived at my front door I opened it to be greeted by my baby - a smile, a kiss and a hug; it was the best welcome home. So good that my glasses steamed up, no joke, my baby says it's because I came into a nice warm house straight out of the cold; but I like to think it was because my baby is such hot stuff. His kiss and hug was so hot it set me on fire inside, so much so that it steamed my glasses up - we both like my version, it made my baby laugh at the time when I told him. It's true anyway, he's seriously hot stuff, hand on heart there's no other guy that comes close; a kiss and a hug from him makes me go weak at the knees - but that's another story for another day.............
But it was just wonderful to be greeted by him when I got home, he was working today too but finished mid afternoon, he went back to his flat to pick some stuff up and then, there he was waiting for me. To come in out of the cold, and it was seriously cold to be given a big warming, comforting hug and an even bigger kiss warmed me instantly through, right through to my heart and soul. I went upstairs to get washed and changed and all the time the chip shop was eating away at my thoughts, I couldn't clear it from my mind. I returned downstairs to find my baby had brewed up, we sat and talked about the day, drank some coffee and I told him about my obsession for a chip shop tea; thankfully my baby was in agreement with me which was a minor miracle. I don't know what I'd have done if he said he didn't fancy it, seriously I think I would have had to seek some therapy or something, maybe consult a psychiatrist over the phone. Can you imagine it, I'd have probably got sanctioned straight away - I've got a guy on the phone and he can't stop thinking about the chip shop, he's completely gone!
My baby offered to go in his car but as there's a chip shop around the corner from me I asked if we could walk. My baby said it would be just as easy to go in the car but I told him I really wanted to walk there because I wanted to walk with him and hold his hand. I know, it's kind of sickly sweet there's no need to tell me, but I did, I just wanted to walk through the cold night with my boyfriends hand in mine. Whatever, my baby gave me a kiss, a cuddle and told me, well, he told me something that made me feel so loved, you don't need to know everything but, gosh he's just so beautiful and he's got a direct line straight to my heart.
We walked to the chip shop, hand in hand through the cold and the darkness; it was just magical - to feel his hand in mine, I don't know, it just means everything. It's a trust, a bond, a sharing of feelings and of love; our love unspoken - it says I love you in silence, it's pure, it's innocent and it's life deconstructed to its most fundamental state. Gosh, I'm getting carried away aren't I? Anyway, tea was just awesome; seriously and totally fantastic - just so tasty and satisfying, you can't beat proper chip shop chips, it's impossible. In case you're wondering I had cheese & onion pie, chips and gravy; my baby had pudding, chips, peas and gravy; we demolished a tower of bread & butter and now, well it was just as good as I imagined. Even my baby said it was and he wasn't even thinking the thoughts!
We're heading out for a few beers tonight, nothing major league, we're just staying local but it'll be good all the same; life's always good when you keep things simple.........................
Have a great night blogger friends - be safe, keep warm and have fun; if you love someone tell them. I'll start the ball rolling - I love you boyfriend, I love you to bits xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox.
