Female Clitorectomy

I was all set to write about last night's, long awaited theatre restaurant but it may have to wait for another day as something rather more pressing has come up.

I was trying to come up with a suitably erudite but practical gmail address (needless to say I failed) when I was struck with the idea of looking back through all my previous searches by inputting each letter of the alphabet into a search box.

This was all going quite well, I could recall a lot of old odd searches (alpaca, anchovy, beetroot, Drop Kick Me Jesus Through The Goalposts Of Life - the usual sort of thing) and also saw a few I didn't recognise which I attributed to either forgetting about them or them being searches carried out by my partner.

This began to cause me a little concern when I came across the name of her ex-boyfriend but then I remembered doing something very similar with a number of ex's and a number of people I wish were ex's. We've all been there, a wistful moment in front of the PC, waiting for something to download, feeling lonely, nothing to worry about basically.

But then I can across the following, all in the order presented below -

Falling In Love
Female Clitorectomy
Fertility Testing In Melbourne

Now, as mentioned above, I get bored at the PC like everyone else, want to see what's out there but I seriously doubt being bored enough to enter, "female clitorectomy", as a search. It's not the first thing to spring to my lips even when in search of a (very occasional) cheap thrill.

This leads me to several unwelcome conclusions with regard to both my partner and the conspiracy of the fates. I'm more than a little reluctant to draw any public conclusions with regard to what this says about my partner's state of mind or possibly the parlous state of our relationship. I think the searches speak for themselves.

However, to be arranged in that order is nothing short of remarkable, I can imagine it being issued as some sort of creative writing exercise. Of course she didn't necessarily enter the searches in this order (lets hope not, and while we're at it lets also hope that they were not all on the same day, as part of some strange thought process) but to have them presented thus strikes me as something more than happenstance.

I'll share more thoughts on the theatre restaurant next time, possibly the dust will have settled by then.
