It seems to be only Sundays now that I have given up sleeping, which could be worse I suppose. It means that only one day a week I will be completely knackered, and I can hardly complain at that. As they say, everything in moderation, and I suppose that counts with insomnia too.
Another day at work completed today, and it surprises me - pleasantly, I must add - that I am still there. My original month of working seems to have stretched further than I'd thought and so far not snapped, which is surely a result. The money I am earning has not only fed my eager lust for beer, but also this weekend, allowed me to buy a laptop off of ebay. Something I've wanted for a while. I must point out that if you read my recent post about struggling to win auctions on ebay, I didn't get better at it, I just bottled it in the end and went for a 'buy it now' option. My poor record with actually winning items on ebay through skill in an auction remains intact.
And so, the first month in 2012 is almost up. And its been pretty good! This time last year I was in my first unemployed spell, and was about a stone fatter and feeling sorry for myself. But this time this year, well now, I suppose, I am working, I've played a few gigs with my rock band, I've been out with my friends a lot, walked almost half of the South Downs Way, have made friends with another Tom Sadler on facebook, continued to write a daily - if largely uneventful account of my life and have really gotten into eating Mexican food.
The year has started well.
With any luck my year will continue in this positive way; I will find a more permanent job, maybe have a couple of holidays, finish walking the South Downs Way, improve my batting average and hopefully have sex at some point.
