Sighing, she sat down at the computer, switching it on and resigning herself to another lonely evening. Why was it that her relationships always finished around this time of year? She could not remember the last time that she had spent an Xmas with another person, it was always a lonely time for her.
She logged into her mail and checked it, Yer, just the usually crap there. Messages from a few groups she belonged to and a couple of forwards from friends & workmates, but that was it. She had her name on a lot of contact sites, but did not seem to get much response to them. She was not sure what she was doing wrong, but she must be doing something wrong.
She decided to surf the web for a while and looked at a couple of sites, but soon got bored with that, she went to make herself a meal. She went into the kitchen and prepared herself a meal, and a cup of tea.
Then, went into the living room and turned the TV on. The computer beeped a few times, but she did not bother to check it, it would probably only be junk mail, so she did not want to read it.
She watched some inane program on the TV while she ate her dinner. She must have been tired, as she dozed off. She did not know how long she slept, but was awaken by a beeping off the computer. She wasn't sure why it woke her, but she wished that it was a man caressing her body that had woken her rather than some junk mail on the computer.
She thought that she might as well read it and clear it all out, after all she had nothing else to do. Maybe she would go out for a drink after she had done it, then she looked at the clock and was amazed that the time was past midnight. There would be no-where open now, so she would check the mail and go to bed.
