February 2012
It’s a leap year. Oly tells me that means I can propose to men all year.
Great stuff.
They think I should make a proposal a day - law of percentages should mean I get some take up. And then I can weigh up my options in six months. Classy/drunk.
Had a 3-day staycation, home from home in Hurstpierpoint. Some sea air, some country air… I needed it.
I need much more though.
I...

I’m so fed up with recruitment processes. Employment law. Job descriptions. Salaries. Politics. Contracts. Recruitment requisitions. Bloody paperwork. It’s a waste of my life.
Some of Friday:
Started five new homeless trainees this morning. They are going to be a handful.
Left work at 1.30pm. This was wonderful.
Sat in Lichfield cathedral for half hour and thought about light.
Had my haircut.
Went to see Tom. Got fed tea and doughnuts. And scored some of his sourdough starter. Legend!
Met Alex for drinks. He is a better man than most.
Ate a cinnamon sugar...

Dad just bought me over some chilli. What a legend.
Progress in balance.
Regressing in patience.
Got a stall in a shopping centre. Can’t be bothered. I’m there all day tomorrow.
Did I mention can’t be bothered.
Missing someone. Distracted.
Just had to deal with a pansy complaint. I made it sound like it mattered. But there are many more important things in the...

I made a list of things I need. This includes: Gloves A tv in my bedroom Ramekins Plain flour Haircut New strings for guitar Decaf tea Cottage getaway Blueberries
I’m pretty sure this comprehensive list would fulfil me nicely.
I am more and more convinced my theory to be alone would suit me. Because people be annoying. Because I can’t stand seeing people act SO out of character....

I am cold.
I am gentle.
I want something that is light. I need to feel light.
Taking the 27th-2nd March off. It can’t come soon enough.
When I complain, you can talk me in.
I met someone who is as fascinating as he is frustrating.
Baking is therapy.
Baking is distraction.
I mostly want to bake macarons at the moment.
It’s my birthday a month today. I’ll...
