Better, no rain.

I had a great ride home, even though everything was still a bit damp from this morning, and am looking forward to a few days off. It’s odd really, my new job seems good and the people are nice but I just haven’t settled in as quickly as I normally do. As I mentioned before I think a lot of this is to do with being knackered and the sudden increase in commuting distance, and I guess I’m still a touch nervous that it will all go to shit again after building up my hopes with previous company so much.

Anyway some good rest and relaxation and I think next week will be so much easier to cope with… Oh and still no laptop!

Rain!

Lady in rainToday the heavens opened like I haven’t seen in years, and thanks to my new job I had no choice but to ride in it. My usual 50 minute commute turned into about an hour and a half because, basically, I couldn’t see anything, the rain was that harsh.

This has been a tough week all in all. Giving up smoking has screwed up my sleep patterns and my longer commute and slightly harder day has just made it worse so I am looking forward to a restful weekend so I can start afresh next week.

My weekend will hopefully comprise of…

  • Maybe a trip to Warwick to collect my new laptop (looking doubtful I must admit)
  • The European Formula One GP
  • Some World of Warcraft
  • Sorting a few computing bits out for my Dad
  • Sleeping… lots…

With any luck the weather will improve and I can use it to dry off my clothes on the ride home ;)
