I hurt; my shoulders are
bruised. I expect that this is probably from having been hurled about
upside-down yesterday. I've also lost four pounds in weight since
yesterday morning. Not eating much and loads of adrenaline must have
done that. It's amazing how my weight varies. I take my "official
weight" to be that on a Saturday morning, but I weigh on a
daily basis; sometimes at different times. It's amazing how I can
sometimes put on weight overnight.
After a quick bit of
brekkie I set off to distribute catalogues to the masses. Or actually
not the masses this time. Today I tried my luck with the elite. I
went to what I had always thought to be one of the posher parts of
town to find it was a right mess. It was dustbin day, and for every
bag that went into the dustbin lorry, one had been scattered over the
roads. Our bin men are really good; why was it such a mess over in
the posh area?
With only six weeks
until Brighton kite festival I got five gallons of beer started in
readiness. In years gone by I have spent over eighty quid on beer for
that festival. This year (if all goes to plan) I will have
spent a tenner. Much more sensible (!) I then ironed shirts.
Twelve of them: it took a little while to do.
Whilst I was ironing "My
Boy TM" came visiting with part of his
entourage. He needed to do something on-line, and Dad's computer is
always good for that. And after he'd computed we all went up the
school. Littlun's school was staging a cake sale in honour of the
jubilee. It was good to be asked along; and it was odd to go back to
Victoria Road primary school. I've not been there since "Daddies
Little Angel TM" knocked the place on the
head some twelve years ago. Walking about the place brought back some
memories, and made me wonder if being a teaching assistant mightn't
be a bad career move. I might do some research....
And then home; into the
garden where I mowed the lawn. It's amazing how fast that thing
grows. And then I turned on my PC and checked emails. One of which
was one which had reviewed my C.V. Apparently my C.V. needs to list
my achievements; I was told that it reads more like a job
description. So I again re-vamped it and I then spent a little while
applying for jobs. I got a call back from one of the agencies;
something might come of it; but I'm not getting my hopes up. I then
did some on-line surveys. If any of my loyal readers would like to do
on-line surveys do let me know. I get a bung for everyone I recommend
(!)
I had planned to get my
paints out and do some small canvases, but by the time I'd finished
mucking about on-line it was nearly 7pm. So I didn't.
And then for tea. What
with late finishes, bowling, one thing and another, we rarely eat
together these days. So this evening it was good to open a bottle of
plonk over tea. I expect I shall have a headache in the morning. One
of the problems of having considerably reduced my body mass over
these last few months is that my alcohol tolerance isn't what it once
was....
speak to Sam with regard to you reserch
