Grumpy Monday – time to move, time to buy.

The cranium walls slowly crawl towards each other, brain ache becomes stronger by the inch, pain becomes a familiar face, the payoff so close, yet so far and unbelievable.

The days of UCAS, forms and more forms, I sign on the dotted line like the nodding dog on the back parcel shelf of an old Ford Mondeo.

This time my attention is needed, a signature won’t just do, my life is my guarantor.

Mortgage advisors, financial advisors, solicitors, landlords, join account, arguments, tears passion, IBS: the gauntlet before your dream becomes reality.

They shatter upon realizing what must go – sacrifice.

30 could be the perfect excuse, the starting point.

A change of scenery, a place that triggers inspiration, a place that I call home.

The escapism should be my home, not wanting to escape from it.

29th October is going to end in tears, first through pain and ending with joy.

The bastard phone is ringing again.

Here are some links that should help ease your Monday morning blues.

Guilty pleasure?

Apologies for the lack of Grumpy Monday this week, it was however a Bank Holiday and it’s the only day I try and remove myself from the world of digital.

I’ll be back next week, but in the meantime, here is a site that will piss off a few people.

>YOU HEAR IT<

Turn up the volume on your speakers and see how many songs you can play before the vocal air strike comes in from all corners of the office.

I didn’t get past the first song.

Enjoy.

Grumpy Monday – Fatty? Relocation…

Today’s been a weird one. It all started fairly well as I made my way through the herd of people at Stockwell underground. As always, everyone is looking down, reading their papers with no sign of emotion to their blunt pissed off “I shouldn’t have taken this day off” face. Why can’t people just smile? That was my first challenge – make someone smile.

I look up, calculated the perfect route in and found my arse sitting down on the perfect seat – in front, an easy-on-the-eye lady reading Harry Potter. Just before I dived in to my own world, a lady standing in front, her core fails and she starts to sway.

Was she ill, fat or pregnant? I scanned for clues, “baby on board” badge, commitment patches, or chocolate bar packaging poking from her bag – none. I stood up and offered her my place – I decided with obesity, it made me feel and look good among the others in the carriage.

The morning flew by and the next thing I knew I was working my abs with the Swiss ball whilst some gym freak showed off next to me by executing some fine medicine ball press ups! After, I started to feel like Scarface about a coke binge, jumping from cloud nine to nineteen.

Suddenly a gust of stress floats through the window at work and collides directly with the side of my face. It’s safe to say that I wasn’t feeling like Scarface, but more like I’d been kicked in the face.

Reloction Relocation, or even Come Dine With me are to blame – tediously.

One moment we’re talking, the next we’re looking and finally we could be buying – or that’s how I feel – still a long way off – phew. Buying a house. It’s not the easiest thing I’ve tried to do, but hang on, since when did living become a breeze.

First childhood, then a teenager, then the pre-adult stage, propelled through adulthood and then you realize that you’re an ADULT – a man. I’m not sure where I fit in, but I do heart Paul Smith for the following:

“My whole life is about being childlike; not childish, but childlike. Which means you have a lateral mind; a lateral way of thinking. You are curious.”

Take it or leave it.

So what links have been making me smile today?

“Walking on Eggshells”

I couldn’t sleep last night, this morning, whatever time it is (5am).  This occupied my mind (and the cat’s) for 24 minutes – yes, 24 minutes, but totally worth it (considering I can’t get to sleep).
