Hello evenings floating in a pool, heading home smelling of chlorine (which I love the smell of, strangely) and enjoying the only exercise I truly find helpful to my mental state.

Ungrateful little s***s
I am so angry right now that I had to write this down before it caused me another bloody headache that I can well do without. My sister has 4 kids (yes, four). The oldest is 16 (17 in August) and so lacking in any kind of maturity it's scary. At the age of 4 [...]
Game of what?
I have just started to watch Game of Thrones the TV show and to be honest I am not sure what to think about it. I am 4 years behind the rest, though I admit I tried to watch the first episode when it initially aired but I just couldn't get into it. Relating to [...]
Saturday
Well, spring has apparently sprung, although it is hardtell to see that when it is still ice cold and the wind has been unbelievably strong for the last few days. Things for me haven't changed too much, am still unemployed and looking (oh that is worse when you are unemployed and looking than when you [...]
Fic and other things that matter
Here is a brief update on the events that have made up my life for the last week. I am writing again (insert applause here). Seriously, I have been bringing books, college texts and music into work for the last five weeks, and in all that time only twice have I sat down in front [...]
Another day…
...Another wonderfully eventful day in the office!

I can honestly say that this week has been difficult. Oh, don't get me wrong, every week is difficult, but for some reason this one was different. I had yesterday off – hence the new appearance of the journal – but I spent the entire day alternating between thinking "I don't want to do my [...]
Merry Christmas
I hope that your day was as good as mine! I am currently sitting here trying to update all the internet software on my laptop as one of the wonderful gifts I received was a pcmcia card for my laptop - this means that I have spent the entire evening (since getting home from my [...]
It’s cold…
...in here! Well, two days before Christmas and the inevitable happens. Normally only one disaster per Christmas season, but this year that just isn't the way. One chest infection - check...warmth in which to recover - no check! Yup, this morning we woke up to a house that may as well have no windows! We [...]
ARGH – Can you believe this?
That thing which normally happens around this time in the morning, the thing that I struggle really hard to achieve when it's overly warm and I am constantly trying to find ways to cool down? You know, that thing which happens at night when you close your eyes, even out your breathing and calm down...I [...]
