Had a pretty good day today. Don't know what it was - either it was because I started reading a new book this morning on the tube, Joesph Heller's Catch-22 which thus far has been thoroughly entertaining or the pretty good days work I did today. It certainly wasn't the good nights sleep I had last night because there wasn't any particular part of last nigh that consisted of any good sleep whatsoever.

I'm at the moment infatuated with the need to describe something as "pedantic" and "Belligerent" although I must confess I have no apparent reason for this. Only perhaps to amuse myself with the humorous description to which one might describe something. This might be a symptom of interpreting Heller's amusing way at describing people - Pedantic, Belligerent bastard would seem quite fitting perhaps of one Yossarian's army colleagues in Heller's Catch-22.

Work was good for a few varying reasons today. First was that I was so busy I didn't have to talk to anyone. Second was that because I was so busy no one could talk to me. Thirdly and perhaps the most profound is that there was no need to talk to or pay attention to anyone or anything other than that which was keeping me busy - which is rather satisfying in its own way. The other rather good thing was that I was listening to new music I had discovered recently and had my earphones on as much as I could to further enforce my will to become void to the world most suddenly. Now, it must be said that I'm neither, old nor belligerent or pedantic which one might associate such pleasing social inertness, rather, I'm only god willingly pleased by my tolerance of it and gentle amusement to which isolated distinction has brought me much pleasure today. Neither is this because I detest or resent my social environment(which I don't) only that every once in a while, complete and utter ignorance and social detachment is rather blissful.

That or my reading of Yossarian's opinions, which serve only to provoke and satisfyingly irritate are slowly becoming my own and I rather enjoy the sarcasm of today's apparent solitude.

I did run a rather excruciating 10km trial on the weekend and did rather well despite my recent decline in gym attendance. In fact it was my best time ever. Very surprising.

Besides this, My purchase of the iPad has remained rather non sensical but has had a fair bit of casual use, as I try dismally to justify its purchase.

All this talk has put me into a rather good mood. I feel ones brush with sarcasm coupled with an enthused ability to draw parallels to ones own experience is rather pleasant and hugely amusing. That said, it's time to go to bed.
