29th August 2006 - I'm in love..........

It's 9pm and I have just got in from my first dance lesson with Ben. Oh my God, in the flesh he is the most beautiful man in the world!!!! Plus with his moves, I reckon he could just about have any woman alive. We started off gently with some basic steps and then once I had half-mastered those, we started on the lifts. We tried a good 5 or so moves. I cannot believe how strong he is!!! He threw me around like a rag doll! We even did the "death drop" which is a very fast spin in the air and drop to the floor. I started laying horizontally at his head height and ended up an inch from the floor being held up only by one arm and one leg. I screamed the first time we did it. It's scary!!! After that I was fine though. I know that with practice I'll be fine on the night. As long as I know the routine like the back of my hand then I'll sail it. Practice makes perfect like they say and I just know that with him as my partner it'll be amazing.

I am now on a mission to find myself a dancer boyfriend. Watching Ben in action today has stirred something in me. I KNOW that I need a bloke who can dance like he does. Ha ha. There's nothing sexier than a man who can dance, well, actually maybe a man racing a motorbike is as sexy but NOTHING else! Ideally I'd like Valentino Rossi but with the moves of Ben. A man who dances and rides a bike - I don't think my heart would cope with it! Seriously, I was mesmerised watching him today, and actually trying a few things out has made me wanna take it up full-time and spend the rest of my life dancing. After a few hours getting sweaty, I got in my car to start the 2 hour drive home and called my mum to share my excitement. She watched Strictly Dance Fever as well and she loves Ben. She is sooooooo happy for me (and a little bit jellus cos she's always wanted to be able to dance like that!). I then called all my mates, one by one to scream down the phone to them that I've had the best afternoon ever!

On my way back from dancing, I realised that I hadn't eaten all day but that also I had left my credit cards at home. I managed to scrape together £8 in pound coins so drove straight to the kebab shop in Brentwood before I went home. I got a salad pitta and portion of chips and decided to eat it in the car. I didn't want to take it home and eat it cos it wouldn't be fair on Paddy and Lyla. They were over-due their dinner and if I walked in with food they would have gone nuts. If I'd have left it on the side while I made their dinner then mine would have gone cold so I thought, "I'll quickly wolf it down in the car" then shoot home and feed them. As I sat eating it, a group of teenagers walked past the car and clocked me. They then stood gawping through my window at me, all giggling and shouting "Jodie Marsh". I tried to ignore them but they wouldn't go away. How annoying is that?! You haven't eaten all day, the first morsel that passes your lips is at 8.30pm at night and you can't even do that in peace! Very annoying I tell you!!!! Ha ha. Oh well, price you pay and all that.

That said, when I did walk into the house tonight, Paddy and Lyla gave me the best greeting ever! They bounced around for ten minutes, jumping up giving me cuddles and licking my face. They were so excited to see me. It's times like that when you just know you could actually do without a man forever more. They give me so mush love and happiness. They look at me like I'm the best thing in the world and act like they haven't seen me in years even though I've only been gone 6 hours! They're always cuddly and loving but tonight I really felt their love as I came in through the door.

I had another annoying thing today actually. When I moved into my new house, I bought a new huge plasma TV for my bedroom. I haven't even had it 6 months yet and it suddenly stopped working! I called the shop I bought it from (as I had also taken out a warranty on it when I bought it) and they sent someone to come and get it to repair it. I thought that was a cheek anyway cos surely they should just give you a brand new one but hey. The repair place has now had my TV for over a month. I called them today to ask what's going on and they said that they think it has been struck by lightening and that's why it's broken. If that is the case then they can't fix it because it's not covered for being struck by lightening. Do they honestly think I'm stupid?! I know I've got blonde hair but it's not real - it's dyed you twats. Both my TVs are on the same aerial and they both run off the same sky plus box so if one had been struck then both would have gone down. My main giant TV in my lounge is absolutely fine. I am going to call them again tomorrow morning and get very angry with them. In fact, once I threaten to get solicitors involved I'm sure they'll change their tune. That or I'll out the company on here for being a bunch of cowboys and make sure no one ever buys electrical goods from them ever again. They're obviously trying to get out of paying for the repair. I am NOT going to let them get away with it. It's a brand new plasma TV for God's sake. It shouldn't break after a few months. I'd hardly even watched it too. I've only watched two films on it since I've had it - I don't really watch that mush TV in bed! Anyway, my dad is also going to get on their case for me while I'm away. Twats!

Anyway, moving on. Jordan has shaved a Mohican into his hair for the holiday. He's completely bald except for a strip of hair running from front to back! He reckons he looks like a convict!

Fit Bod texted me today to say that he can't stop laughing over the blogs. I'm glad they are entertaining someone at least. Ha ha. They make me laugh when I write them, I always have a little chuckle to myself so it's wicked when my mates enjoy them. He's gonna train me and Tony when we get back off holiday. We want to get mega fit. Me personally, I wanna get so fit that I can go out naked and look amazing. Ha ha. Seriously though, I do want to get fit. I'm looking good at the moment but I could just do with toning my butt a little bit. It's just a fraction too peachy right now. I told him I want to get so fit that I can have any man in the whole world! Ha ha. He's going to take us boxing training (oh no, not again - the last time we all did boxing training was for my boxing match in Manchester. I nearly knocked Lauren out during sparring. I wore Kyle out to the point of him sitting on the floor nearly crying and I killed myself so mush that at one point I couldn't walk up the stairs!) but I am looking forward to it. The line of the day is "I wanna get so fit that Fancy Boy finds himself waiting at the back of a very long queue to get anywhere near me" - yes Fit Bod!!!!! I want them queuing up banging my door down!!!

Tonight I also have to give a little mention to my mate Smashfest. Smashfest is a real cheekie chappie who, when he's had a drink gets very rude and funny. He invents his own words and makes us all laugh. I've known him for years and we've had many a funny night out together. Smashfest came to my last garden party. He spent an hour in the kitchen with Lauren trying to spell a word on his phone (he was trying to send a text to his girlfriend) where he was so drunk. He gets absolutely mashed when he goes out but he's always got a smile for you no matter what. I went upstairs during the party and found him lying on my bed with Paddy. They were "having a little chat". I know Smashfest has been reading the blogs too so I just wanted to say "hi" and that I'll see you when I get back from holiday of all carnage.

Right, I've got too mush to do and not enough time to do it in. Gotta go, just wanted to tell you I've had the best afternoon ever and that the next time I write will either be from abroad or when I'm back home after a week of absolute mess. I'm in love with Ben - he's GORGEOUS!!!!! Sorry, don't want to make anyone jellus but my God, what a man......

I'm hoping that when I get back from holiday a certain young man will ask me out so that I can be taken off the market for a while. It'll do me good to get into a semi-serious relationship. At the very least it will stop me from snogging twenty boys every time I go out. I don't even mind who I go out with, I'd happily have Blondie, Blondie No 2, the good kisser from the other night or the 16 year old. I'll say "yes" to whoever asks me out first. I'm back on WEDNESDAY - got that boys?! ha ha ;)

So, if I don't speak to you, have a great week. Love to all my amazing mates who sadly aren't coming with me. Don't have too mush fun without me - save it for when I'm back and we'll go on a rampage of Brentwood. And Fit Bod, get those pads ready - I'm going to knock seven shades of sh*t out of them when I'm back!

All my love Jodie

p.s I'm not going back over this to check on spelling mistakes or anything else so if it's a mess I apologise. I'm too tired and I've got too mush to do. That said, it can't be anywhere near as bad as drunk blog. Ha ha.....
