liadnan"Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure nineteen nineteen six, result happiness. Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure twenty pounds ought and six, result misery."
Hmm.
Leaving that to one side, as ever, I'm shatteringly tired, and not very interested in the case I'm supposedly working on.
I took yesterday to try and sort out various pressing matters: things I'm either doing or supposed to be doing that are generally unconnected with being a lawyer. I managed about half of that, including, for rather tedious reasons with which I shan't bore you, going to Oxford for the afternoon. That did at least give me a chance to go and see a friend I made when I was in Greece, which was a plus. Even more of a plus she and her boyfriend insisted I stay for dinner, which I wasn't expecting.
Sunday, on the other hand, I spent sitting in a pub at Hays Galleria drinking Bloody Marys with the Clique, or some part thereof, including J. Actually, I think I was the only one drinking Bloody Marys, but I'm sure that's a grammatically valid way of putting it.
That, however, is about it so far as pluses are concerned, at least so it seems at the moment. I'm trying to write something new at present but frankly what I'm achieving remarkable success in doing is staring at screen and keyboard while thinking aimlessly about something completely different. Any coherent sentences I have managed to put down are, frankly, crap. Maybe it's time I gave up on this lark.
Add to that the fact I'm having one of my recurrent attacks of the Being Past 30 And Single Blues and my mood at present is not exactly good.
Maybe I shall skive off this afternoon and go and see a film or something. Though the only thing I'm wildly interested in seeing at the moment is Bright Young Things, which isn't open yet.
Heigh ho, ho hum.

Date: 2003-09-30 08:18 am (UTC)And fuck work. Have a drink (but not bloody marys, 'cause those are icky ...) ... only way to deal with the stupid bad mood is to look it straight in the eye and tell it to go fuck itself. For this, the liquor is essential.
And, 'cause i'm random like that - i totally considered calling with a silly song. but then i decided against it - 'cause that's just weird and bizarre.
