That time..

A quick glance of my recent blogs gets me thinking I should change the name of this place to Cheesecakes and Music - or something a little more origninal - as anyone would think that's all my life revolves around, so I'm going to make this post free from those two subjects. Fingers crossed, here goes...

I love this time of year. The colours on the trees are so much more attractive and I feel so much more at ease in my own skin with that gentle winter nip in the air. Yesterday I actually had to scrape the ice off my windsheild before work while wrapped warmly in my scarf. Perfect.

There's another reason I'm not gonna be mentioning that certain food type: I'm off them. And fatty foods in general. I'm trying to shift a bit of weight and return to some semblance of fitness that my buggerred back (of recent times) and anti-depressant induced lethargy have stopped me from doing so. So I spent yesterday snacking on some rather juicy grapes rather than chocolate and reduced my normal lunch time feast to a normal meal. The exercise also began in earnest this week. I can't reach 27 and wobble when I laugh.

Not a great deal has happened this week. Went up and down to Richmond for a meeting with the company's PR agency. It's a lovely leafy area - really nice infact. Reminded me of Chislehurst. Not too far from the City but far enough to be quiet and green - somewhere I'd happily live if property prices were a little more friendly and less extortionate. Urgh - I must be getting older if I'm thinking like that.

I'm so thrilled to have my car working perfectly again having got the exhaust fixed a few weeks back it's so nice to be able to open the window or door when the motors running and not hear a tractor. I've had many cars (especially the Rover) where there's been a lot of things that niggle me about them and it's so nice now not to have a single thing, to look forward to driving it and for it to not feel like a journey at all.

Sat up late watching a film last night. Having blazed through Family Guy series 6 I suddenly got a real hankering to watch High Fidelity. Unfortunately I don't own it. Thankfully Grosse Point Blank was on television so I watched that. Something else on television that I can't speak highly enough of is Californication, though it's on Five so I don't get to watch it 'live' as it were with my megre 4 terrestial chanels. David Duchoveny brings a lot of charisma to a great part with some excellent lines on a show which is so far from the usual American sitcoms it's near perfect.

Ho hum, things to do. See you tomorrow, dear diary
