The Master of Indecision....
This month has turned out to be one of mixed emotions. From happiness and excitement in one moment to another of anger and frustration.
The new house has been ok at times, but on occasions I can feel confined to a certain space with no possible means of escape for a certain period. It also seems that there is still a lot I need to do, but just don't have enough time to do everything that needs to be accomplished. There is also a bit of an uneasy vibe at work at the moment, because of the early Easter this year it meant that I had to spend two weeks inside the office, doing an archiving task. It was going alright until the two colleagues who were helping me were assigned to something else, and after finishing the remainder of what needed to be done I felt that enough was enough and at present, am being less co-operative than usual. This may have had a knock-on effect on my spirituality, but thankfully here I have taken a normal, laid-back approach and that at least continues to go on just fine.
Thankfully, there has been just as many ups as downs to help restore the balance. As well as the flash mobs that took place at the beginning of this month, the spring TV schedules have helped to bring in the returns of Doctor Who, Have I Got News For You, and the second series of Heroes which should hopefully bring in some further character development. In the weekend just gone, I undertook my first ever expedition with the
tubewalkers, walking from Crossharbour to Mudchute via the Thames (where there was the unusual sighting of a small beach) and then on the following day I had a meal with the family over at Essex, at the venue where my sister's wedding recpetion will be held next year. Quite a pleasant and secluded venue, I have to say.
The last couple of days have also brought some amusing writings - first up, after a little while away and a job reshuffle, Steve Ainger was back in Metro's letters column yesterday:
"So, Esther Rantzen says people are ruder than they were ten years ago. As people are much more likely to be rude to Esther Rantzen than they are to anyone else, I think we can take this with a pinch of salt."
And also worth mentioning is this picture I saw at West Ealing this morning, in reference to demand for the new Grand Theft Auto 4 game (which, I'm pleased to say, I won't be buying).
After all of that, it is time to bring this month's events to an end. May, in the first few days at least, could be promising, taking into account that it can set out my future if things turn out a certain way....
