Time

Office hours are crazy. I fight my way through the traffic in the morning (in order to get a parking space), do no work in the morning (because my brain isn't yet in gear), have lunch, have a short kip afterwards, then settle down to actually get some work done.

By 3pm I'm actually awake and working, but I have only 2 hours before I have to go home to have dinner! Furthermore, I can't do any evening activities (sports or drinking) in Reading, because of the aforementioned dinner.

I look forward to living in my own home, when my day will begin with breakfast at 9, followed by light work (such as reading or email), then a journey in to the office around lunchtime. Decent work will be achieved from 2:30 until 7; I can then have dinner, and do something afterwards.

And I'll also be able to breathe: I'm finding it increasingly impossible to survive with both my parents smoking like chimneys, leaving the house in a miasma of smoke. God, give me clean air!

Kill Bill vol. 2

Wow. A few of us cruised over to Maidenhead to watch it in a nice cinema, and boy was it worth it. Ignore the critics who've said it's not as good as the first one — yes, it's a little slower in pace but it's as good, if not better. Funny, violent, enormously well-acted.

Boxed set, welcome to my wish list.
