No more dragons

I haven't really written much today. I feel so tired and I'm not so sure I should be feeling tired. What matters is that I am. A lot of frustration today, especially when a CD jammed into my laptop and everyone was watching over it as if it were a miracle. I just needed my man. In exactly the same way as a child wants his mummy. The expert computer man from I don't know where just stared and suggested I call Mitts. Mitts couldn't have done it, I could have screamed and stamped my feet and thrown a big tantrum, because I knew the Mister would do it in a click. He did. Precisely in a click. What a man of many resources. Sometimes I wish I could take him to work. I would just hand over a whiteboard marker, find a place at the back and listen. He'd be good, very good. He'd be one to enthrall kids with his knowledge, and with his enthusiasm for music. Perhaps some people are born to be teachers, nice ones at that, but they branch out in other fields. What a pity, for me, for kids. And since I don't think I can pull taking him to school with me because it's not as if I can microwave him into a tiny boy with a lunchbox, then it has to stay here. So much music, so much excitement, so much knowledge, and so effortlessly blessed with the knowledge of imparting the joy for music. Sometimes I don;t think he's ever grown up. Which suits me just fine because I haven't either. And which is probably one of the many reasons we seem to be an item. We have had the roughest of times. When I look back I am surprised at how we braved it all. Perhaps it was because we were two kids trying to fight off the dragons which came in many shapes, colours, sizes and forms. And hurray we have fought off the dragons, and us being so soft on the outside as on the inside, we didn't kill them, we just let them off with a good telling off. They won't be back. But just in case they do, we are now more equipped than before. We know the warning signs, and we act on them. Kids do not have much experience perhaps, but we're a girl and a boy who by chance stumbled on each other, took each other's hands and vowed to take care of one another. Nobody messes around with me because he'll swoop down like an eagle. And nobody messes with him, because I will swoop down like a falcon. It's strange but that's how it is. Everybody thought this girl should have walked out the first minute because there were too many dragons. But I thought I'd braved enough dragons of my own to be able to fight. And for some reason I wasn't scared. And I'm so very glad. Because united we stood and divided the dragons, for good.
