I've been doing some pretty good runs lately. The run of good runs started with me down in Dorset and I've been doing great since - 3 runs since really. I'm not always accompanied by my fairly regular running friends as I think running hasn't the appeal it did. So I'm solo and I get to listen to my playlists which is kinda cool. It's important to be regular, in terms of how often you run so I just keep going - Monday, Wednesday and like today which is Friday.
I had a hair cut yesterday which was like discovering myself again. I had been in between deciding to grow it longer or cut it and while I remained undecided I wore it longer, side parted it but now I'm way over it. Had an Electrician come in yesterday to get my kitchen lights working. Learned alot. Won't be forking out £80 to hire him again; The dimmer light module went bad and just needed to be replaced. Anyway I now have my kitchen back, not for cooking oh no - I don't cook, unless I'm feeling self inflicting but I have my sorta computer deck back. It's wierd I hang out in the kitchen and sit there on my laptop(or stand) and I prefer it. Wierd. Had a bowl of breakfast, Cheerios, and a cup of coffee and a toffee low fat yoghurt. Not bad.
Found myself learning through teaching recently at work. Pretty cool but have recently neglected my lunch breaks fully. So I went for a full 1 hour lunch the other day, brought my kindle and started to read one of the books my mom read recently(we share the same books in our kindles) and I'm loving it. My lunch breaks are quite, less frantic and business and more outside, food and reading, peace and calm. I like that. The actual book is called "The mysterious case of the dog in the night" or something like that. I phoned my mom yesterday evening to tell her that. I also spoke to my dad about Linux. I actually re-started reading recently on the train to Weymouth with me continuing Zen and the art Motorcycle maintenance which I'm finding quite hard work. Ive had that on pause for a while, sane with The Idiot...never mind I'll come back to them.
The other day I had to travel to Stanstead airport to fetch luggage that my cousin left as she couldn't take it on the plane. I was cool with that - it was long but it was quite and peaceful. The nice thing about being alone is your evenings are all yours and you can do anything. I decided to not fetch them on the day they departed and instead fetched them about 2 days ago. No one telling me when I have to collect them, I decided when I wanted to. Sometimes I think it's necessary to do what you want, decide what you want and do it. People call this being selfish but I think that's only when other people are involved in your decisions...my decisions are just mine. There is a book that I've never read about what it calls the 'Selfish gene' and how it is instrumental to animal evolution...but whatever, right?
It's Friday today and I'm psyched. I got home last night and after meeting my neighbour below me(because I wanted to know if he was experiencing any electrical issues as I was) and the Electrician left, I sat down, switched MTV on and carried programming on my laptop while the TV carried away in front of me. It's times like this that I know that that's what I'm doing and a little incling says thy I should do more...
I've just discovered that I'm on the wrong train. This is Waterloo. I must have been on the Charring Cross Branch of the north bound northern line... So I'm doing a new route today.
I'm feeling really pretty boring of late. I'm being boring, I'm not bored. Im just not fun to be around right now. I feel this way but I'm ok with it. Really I like it. It's a relief. Like for example, I'm not really up for the sports fun day our company is planning. I'm a loser really - I should be up for it right? Also I'm not really up for going out that much recently(like in he last 2 weeks), like to have a beer or something. I'm basically ok though with it, but I'm sorta happy about it but then I'm sorta cautious that I'm so cool about that. It's like I'm letting go a bit. Then again, reasonably I've been involved with so much recently, with people, with moving, having people around, going to wedding, helping out contractors, getting electrician in an all the stuff that I've been doing. I'm sorta anti it now. Maybe I'm just on the defensive right now because of that. But you know what? That's ok.
Played Xbox today in the office and as part of my new defensive passiveness I wasn't eager to involve everyone around me, they just watched and I just played and I wasn't too actively involved in the background conversations and that's was cool. It's wierd, I think I'm so done with facilitating people that I'm just not up for it right now. And I kinda think if that's the mood I'm in, there in no point putting myself in positions right now(like this sports day) where I'll have to exercise all that right now I'm not into. And people dont want me to be boring, even though I think I need it.
That said, I'm super keen to run home tonight!
