  • First day back in the office.

    It has been ages since I’ve been back in the office and the first day back feels really good – free coffee, plenty of fresh fruit to snack on for morning tea and afternoon tea. I’m going to have a quiet night tonight rather than going for a walk but I’ll go for one tomorrow…

  • Another uneventful day.

    Finished work tonight at 10pm then went for my nightly 11.6km walk, came home, did some free weights while watching some YouTube videos, had a shower and now I’m in bed relaxing. I’m looking forward to getting back into the office on Thursday and I’ll head in on Friday as well since I need to…

  • Back in the office tomorrow.

    Well, that was a bit of a nuisance, I setup the alarm on my phone but I forgot to enable it so it would go off at 11:30am but luckily I woke up before 12:30 so I guess tomorrow will be my first day back in the office. I’m currently at the half way point…

  • Getting ready to go to bed.

    I finished watching the first season of Pluribus and I can’t help but get ‘The Borg’ vibes from the whole way in which individuality disappears, it also gives MAGA cult vibes of how eventually MAGA types eventually end up repeating something they heard online without consciously thinking about what they’re saying. The idea of not…

  • Back to work and back in the office on Wednesday.

    Had a relaxing day today, slept in until around midday then pottered around the house watching some television episodes then for dinner I ordered a mixed grill salad from the local Turkish restaurant because I really wasn’t in the mood to do any cooking but wanted something that was healthy. I’ve got the rubbish out…

  • A relaxing day off and a hearty dinner.

    I had a good night sleep after going for that long walk on Sunday night, I woke up, went for a walk down to the local bakery to pick up some lunch. At the bakery I picked up a fresh roll and a chocolate caramel slice then asked back home to enjoy then for dinner…

  • The week is over.

    Finished work tonight and went for a walk – I decided to kick it up a notch and instead go for a 17.4km walk and I was able to get it down in around 2 hours and 40 minutes which is pretty quick when compared to the usual time of 1 hour and 50 minutes…

  • Feeling good, can’t wait for Sunday.

    End of my second week back at work and feeling good. I’m having a looking at ordering the Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds Wild God album after much procrastination along with maybe a few t-shirts I’m at it but it will be ordered through the UK store since there is a larger selection then…

  • A busy day, now at the half way point.

    A busy day to day but looking forward to the end of the shift. What amazes me are the number of people who ring up who normalised the idea that they’re helpless and their first port of call is to ring up for help rather than attempting to resolve the problem themselves. I can understand…

  • What is old is new again.

    I find it interesting how there was first the trend of vinyl returning then tape and how CDs are making a comeback as people realise that paying to hear the same music over and over again isn’t a smart way to spend money. I wouldn’t be surprised if we end up seeing a return of…
