To say that I’m back. Oddly I got the same number of visitors as usual despite not posting for an entire fortnight. Anyone care to theorise on why this might be?
I plan to post in more detail later, but chaos is upon in me in the form of preparations for a new academic year, new accommodation, new GP, and further progression towards the new me. Moodwise I’m a bit down at the moment, but this time there was a definite trigger, so I reckon it’ll ease off in time.
Apparently depressive tendencies run in the familly, though “not in the way manic depression does”. My grandma and uncle have both had it, and possibly my dad as well (without recognising it himself). They haven’t indulged in quite the extremes of it that I have though, so I can’t blame it on genetics.
Seeing my parents next week, though they’ve arranged their trip down to be the day after I start work, despite my having warned them that if they did that I wouldn’t be around, and they should come earlier, and have consequently started moaning that I “only want them for a taxi service”. *hefty sigh* Oh well, I did try, looks like some form of miscommunication gummed up the works. Unsure how to explain that to them without pointing the finger at anyone (including myself!).
Feels strange to be back… I’d just gotten used to being at “Zion”, and suddenly I’m back home, looking for my chequebook so I can settle the rent I owe them. Also hungry, but not sure if I have much food in the house (and I’ve just eaten a 75g bag of pretzels, which didn’t fill me up at all. I’ve put on about half a stone in a fortnight, which might suggest I need to eat somewhat less.
Is there a special place where chequebooks hide? Do they hold secret parties in a faerie realm, along with pen-tops and odd socks? Or is it just me who can never find one when I want it?
