Shame on me

I've been busy with my new job the last week so I have been neglecting my poor little blog. My sincere apologies to those of you who might've been craving some news.

Truth is, not much to report. Work is going well. My team of staff are all getting along really well. I'm learning to drive a truck with attached trailer and as they say, "Practise makes perfect" so I'm not quite there yet. Driving = OK. Reversing = difficult. Tomorrow is a day of practise for me and the other new driver.

I've been to the gym twice this week since admitting to myself that the reason I am often too tired or feeling too lazy to go to the gym at all is because I am out of shape. SO, in order to feel better in general, to start to look more like my old self, I am forcing myself to the gym even on the nights when "I'm too tired to go to the gym." Right now, I am too tired to go, but I WILL go later tonight.

Blah blah blah.

I went to the movies last night and saw The Incredible Hulk and Get Smart. Both enjoyable but I did prefer the latter... although, the fact that my adolescent crush on The Rock aka Dwayne Johnson has seemingly resurfaced might be part of the reason for enjoying the movie so much. I watched Once the other night and LOVED it. I went out the following day and picked up the soundtrack. It's a lovely, lovely movie. And as I say that I'm not sure everyone would agree with me, but I LOVED it. So, my recommendation is this: If you like music, if you are inspired by the songwriting process, if you like passionate people, and if you have ever met someone and spent a brief but wonderful period of time with them you should watch this film.


That's all for today.
