They Say What They Say

I have to admit, I'm not feeling very Christmassy at the moment. Work has been a drag on various levels and I've failed to catch up with any of my friends before we all scatter ot the four winds for the next few days. Plus, it was this time last year that I broke my nose so I'm kind of having anxious thoughts about all that.

I'm sure I'll get more in the mood once I'm surrounded by various members of my immediate family and have a drink in one hand and a canape in the other. Until then I'll muddle through and try and work out where to get coffee tomorrow now that the coffee shop next to the library has closed until next year.

I was going to go to gym after work tonight. I had an especially late lunch so I wouldn't be too hungry by 7.30. But it's 5 to 8 and in a burst of Christmas generosity I told someone I stay open until 8pm so they could use a thesis. Which means that by the time I get out of here, make my way to the gym, do my thing and ride home it'll be nearly 10pm and I've still got a pile of things to do before I take off for the old home town for Christmas tomorrow.

Thank god I did a lot of riding up hills this morning, 'cause I think that'll have to do for the exercise thing for the next couple of days.

ETA: It turns out the gym closed at 8pm anyway, so even if I had gone I wouldn't have been able to do much.

I'm home now, eating dip and watching A Few Good Men on TV. Mmm, Sorkin dialogue and social posturing. Although I have to say, I wish someone would buy him a book of names for Christmukkah. Sam, Danny, Sally, David... they're all there and I'm getting a little tired of hearing them.
