And so
I did it!
I managed a year away from London. Without consulting last years diary, or my memory bank, I'd planned a night on the disco dance floor (ok, so it's a cool lil pub that has a cool indie night, not quite disco, but the beer garden cranks with all the cool kids) last Friday night, with Kristen, John & Liamski. And by Friday afternoon I was in no shape to go out. No, I hadn't cracked the bottle of emergency bubbly in my cupboard at the office, I just felt wrong. Thought just maybe a power nap & a cool shower would do the trick & some necessary medication. Nope. Night out CANCELLED. I made it down the street to buy a kebab & curled up on the lounge to watch Jaws (wow, sooo slow) & read, before the 11 hours of snoozing that followed. Straight, no wake up in between. Must have been necessary. I read my last years diary & found out that the last Friday in February last year - I'd gone out for my last dance at the Borderline in London with none other than Kristen, John & Liam. D'oh. One year on, I feel ok about where I am with myself at the moment. I kinda like Sydney. It’s public transport is rubbish though, so I still feel isolated. With a few more mates moving to the city though, that should help things out…..settling in takes such a long time. I’m so impatient.
Believe it or not, I'm walking on air. Never thought I could feel so free…flying away on a wing & a prayer, who could it be… believe it or not it's just me. Oh err..i digress. I loved that song as a kid. Tell me who sings it & what show it was the theme song for & you get 10 brownie points.
Had to cancel the next night out too - housewarming & pub crawl. I was sad. Sad that the coincidence didn't quite happen, sad that another year's passed and there are so many things I need to do - I just don't know what they are. I think my next goal, is......
to buy a motorbike, after I get my motorbike learners permit. Just gotta save up a wee bit more cash.
Anyone got any suggestions for hobbies I should take up, cause clearly, snowboarding just isn't doing it for me at the moment. Given I'm about 10 hours away from the nearest rideable mountain. And that’s 10 plane hours...
