Nothing’s gonna get me down

Google Insights is an interesting tool. It measures ’search intensity’ – the number of searches being made for a certain term. More »

Brave little trooper

You know it’s odd how sometimes it still hits me – oh my God, MJ really is dead. Well, it’s not that odd. And yet it is. I mean I know by now, right?

Generally I’m still doing pretty good – and still healthy, and fitnessy. But I’ve recently had some moments of downness. Probably all hormone-related, as Katja would say. More »

It’s been a while

Don’t really get to update much these days. Lemme give you a quick overview of what’s been going on.

You may know that after I got back from Norway I had a Toma visiting for Pride. This was most amazing, he’s exceptionally lovely and wonderful. There are pics on Flickr. Pride itself was fun too, we didn’t get too wet, but we also left early. Like, only did the Parade and then went for a quick stroll through Preston Park and then caught a cab back, cuz we’re lazy.

What else did we do… went to the Marina twice, once by choo choo train, went shopping and bought loads of rubbish (well, I bought rubbish, Toma’s broke), watched Young, Dumb, and Living off Mum (oooh it is so great!), watched other rubbish, and were online. Also, because Toma is so very amazing, he gave me his Nintendo DS so I played with that loads. And bought more games for it. 😀 And am still playing it loads. 😛

His Loveliness left on Monday and I had a boring week at work. Well, partly very stressful, and partly quite boring in a “really don’t want to be here” way. I was glad when the week was over. I kinda want a new job, but I get those phases every few months, and new jobs are hard to come by in the current climate, and hard for me anyway.

I finally went to yoga again this week too, I was kinda not inspired at first and worried my whole healthy living drive had already come to an end (oh yeah, I also ate loads of rubbish while Toma was here), but I have found back into it thankfully. So been to yoga twice and going again tomorrow, and been cycling three times.

The cycling is going really well, I did 42km on Wednesday, 20km on Thursday, and 66km today. I’m pretty beat now, but all in all I really enjoyed it (there were some bits, esp. steep hills and towards the end where I was just so friggin’ tired, that were less fun) and I saw loads of cute places, most of which I hadn’t seen before. I went inland and just rode around lots of little villages. Very fun. Also saw a castle. And ate the most delicious blackberries.

I hope I can keep this going. I also went swimming on Thursday during my lunchbreak, and went for a quick “cooling off” paddle after my bike ride today. I love the sea. 🙂 Am also still (well, again) eating healthily, oh and I’ve started on my secret project again too! Gosh, all those THINGS I’m doing! It’s great! 😀

Going forward… I am excited about NYC of course, not so long to go now, and I must start planning all the stuff I wanna see soon. And I’m going to Germany in October – Mainz for Katja and Tobias, Cologne for Anna, and to Frankfurt to meet work people. 🙂

Yep that’s pretty much it – just a quick update on my life. Hope you’re all good!!!
