Trade-off

Back to the blog - it reminds me of more exotic times.

Time spent out of the office, out of the house, out of the country in fact. Time spent.

These days I'm working 9-5.30, monday-friday, 48 or so weeks a year. Friday after thursday after wednesday after tuesday after monday I engage the ultimate trade: time for money - my time;their money.

fairwell 2005, I knew ye well!

Hallo!

I've a pretty rad' xmas and new year! Tis indeed the season to be jolly ^^,

Last thursday my lovely other half headed off on her 2 week trip to cambridge and then Switzerland (unrelated, just linked by the unforgivingly sticky glue that is time). I ended up going for a train ride to York with her to bid her fairwell, as opposed to bailing out at Scarborough. It was pretty wierd to see her off actually, after spending the last 2 months with her nearly 24/7..and it got me thinking, or dreading, about what's gonna happen when she goes home for summer - back to China..and worse still, once she graduates.. oo er :/

New years eve rocked ^^, I avoided any parties and such, and instead grabbed a handful of old friends and crashed at my sub zero student house :/ proper cold it be! We missed the countdown like, and instead spent those precious seconds consuming the mound of chips and pizza that I'd cooked.

Hope everyone had a decent xmas and a jolly new year :) Time to get cracking with some uni work...argh..

Silence to my ears...

A deaf guy came up to my band after our gig tonight and signed/gestured how good we were. He also suggested that we were too loud.

Ah, the true sense of enjoyment :)

i quit

right, i'm quitting smoking as of tomorow. The catylist that made me do it has since extinguished. So, nicotine, meet my motherfucking will power (and refusal to buy my own cigs ^^, ).

a rocky road awaits yours truly - sadly i'm not talking about going cold turky or whatever :/
