Monday
This morning I can confirm that QOTSA - Era Vulgaris is a very good CD to dance to.
I can also confirm that lazy Sundays appear to give me mood swings. Although recently, this may relate to the fact that I'm trying hard to feel positive about having to retake, when in fact what I want to do is crawl under a rock until it all goes away. Which is pretty much what I did yesterday. No more unproductive days for me, then.
I also missed the lovely fruit and veg shop next door yesterday (it closes at 4pm, not 4.30 like I was told by someone that works there a few weeks ago) so I had to go to one over the road that sells in bowls, so you have to buy the whole bowl. I therefore have less variety but more actual fruit. Very annoying, but never mind. I'll still be taking my fruit and nuts to work this week :D
I'm planning on going 4 days a week at work so that I get a study day each week until May when I retake. This means that I can keep my social life, which would otherwise be impossible, and study on my day off and at the weekend. So I still get weekend evenings. This should work out fine as long is I go to be on either a Friday or Saturday so I get a full day's study the next day. All this planning is meant to help me to Keep Positive. Should hear about the study materials today. I hope to have them delivered in the next couple of days so I can have everything I need at home by Friday, which should be my first day off.
ION, Rod's emailed me a couple of times and they haven't all been getting through and I managed to catch him on Skype for about 30 seconds last Thursday then not again. I officially hate the lack of internet connection, but am glad to occasionally be getting messages so I at least know that he's OK. I miss him lots, which makes me sad. Just hope he's enjoying himself and getting a tan :D
