An Olympic Effort

I'm confused as to why everyone is so pleased. So I'm going to hide in here til the hysteria has calmed down. I can't see why sacrificing necessary spending on things like education and health in order to give Tony Bleurgh another PR wank is something to celebrate. But anyway. I doubt anyone else agrees with me right now.

Speaking of Olympian tasks, that would just about describe the amount of crap piled up on my desk. So much for a relaxing holiday. My stress levels are back up to 11 (yes, that's a Spinal Tap reference), and I've starting mainlining caffeine again. On the plus side, at least our finances aren't as shite as they have been.

Can't seem to make any decisions about the future at the moment. Usually I live with one eye constantly on the next step, so it's a bit odd. My mind keeps flitting from scenario to scenario. Eventually, I may find this change calming, but now it's just weird. Maybe the problem is that I don't like the present very much...

In other news: every time I shower I get a bit less brown... I have my appraisal tomorrow and am bricking it... my hair doesn't like this weather... I am doing a kind of GI (the diet, not Joe)thing and I like it... my life is boring and I need some excitement...
