Exploits

Energy.

I'm full of it right now. Not just a figure of speech to say I'm cheerful or whatever, but right now I feel REALLY energetic. I'm in work but I want to go for a run. Anyone watching me now would think I'm on speed or something, but I'm not. I've not taken any substance since the crazy summer of 1995 when I used to pop ephedrein (which was legal at the time).

Anyway, it might be a sugar rush as I just had a cuppa with about 5 sugars - don't know why I put so many in, boredom probably. I ordered a pair of new Nike AirMax trainers last night, they'll arrive tomorrow and I'll really be able to work on my cardio. I've surprised myself recently with how well I've progressed, I've decided I've got enough muscle now - I just need to lose a bit of the gut and improve my fitness.

Bridge have asked me to do some more shift next month but I've had to turn them down - I seem to be permanently tired these days and more tech op slots will make matters worse - the studio is so comfortable there I'll probably fall asleep - not quite what I want.

M+D are going away this weekend so I'll be house-sitting - Alex will be down from Kent too so she can help me with Alyssa. That reminds me, 2 weeks today and I'll be back online! Finally! A word of warning to anyone thinking of using TalkTalk for broadband....don't. Absolutely pathetic Customer Services - that's if you can get through to them. They're one of those companies who like to keep customers at arm's length. You know you're dealing with one of those when their automated telephone service (press 1 to get cut off, press 2 to get through to the wrong department etc) have hardly any options to speak to a human and when you do, they're either in Indian or South Africa. Anyway I cacelled with them, sadly too late to have BT broadband straight away: technically I'm still with TalkTalk for 2 weeks but once that's up I can go back to BT and have their internet service.

Really can't wait for tomorrow.
