Sunday and my faith in weather forecasting has been shattered
It's Sunday, 1147, 27th November, it's sunny(more or less) it's been pretty cold for a while now. Not cold by home standards but cold enough to freeze a little puddle in the shade on a windy day down by the river. Most people seem to think it's quite cold but I'm still not convinced. It's been 4 days since I was promised snow and not a flake has fallen. Today the weather is to be mostly cloudy with sunny breaks, a high of 7'C cooling down to a low of 2'C this evening. There's a northerly wind blowing at about 17mph. There's moderate visibility, the barometer is rising steadily from 997mB. The relative humidity is 77%. The sun index is Low, as well as the pollution. I'm not even sure that I can trust this! I have to resort to sticking my head out the window that won't open. My world is crashing down and all I can do it just look at the weather report and know that it's all lies! Lies! Lies! Lies!
The last couple days have been nice, besides getting lost on my way to the party Friday(but really now, it's not a party unless I get lost at some point in the evening). The party when I eventually got there was good times, but it being kinda out of the way meant that we would have to leave early inorder to catch a bus back to "civilization" but I met some nice people, many of whom happened to be in my program but as yet had not met. Friday afternoon was nice, I went to talk to a Prof about a paper outline which I had prepared and which he then rejected but it's better sooner than later with those sorts of things. I walked home and picked up a couple of small salami at the Borough market. I'm quite excited about them, they're just a little young so they're hanging on my bullitin board right now to age.
Saturday was a wash. Although I did get a new paper idea ready which I think I can take back to Dr Honig without complete rejection. Other than that I did do some readings but mostly couldn't concentrate and ended up watching a couple movies, although not completely not being able to concentrate seemed to transcend ever distraction and I found myself all over the place. I started trying to figure out what I would do over the break. I found a nice site with cheap flights, but I can't seem to decided on a location. Prague would be nice, but maybe Vienna. I'm starting to think Vienna would be nice for a week, just hanging out. I still have some time to decide, although admittingly less than I think. Classes end on the 16th and I need to book my flight a week ahead.
Today hopes to be something close to productive, at least get some readings done, see what's going on with my paper, maybe start looking at my other paper due the same day. It'll be a relaxed day. I'll probably make another one of those breakfast petas that I've been growing fond of, it's just scrambled eggs with sundried tomatoes and cheese, in a peta with more cheese. I've been thinking maybe I should open the more mature of the two salamis and throw some of it in with the egg, but they both look so lovely hanging on my wall. I feel like I'm in a Hungarian Deli!
We'll see, maybe I'll make a grilled cheese sandwich again, it was quite tasty even after I'd burnt it. Nevermind that none of my flatmates know what grilled cheese is, they think I'm crazy.
and everyone has to check out www.areasofmyexpertise.com/hoboes it's quite a wonderful thing. It's not for everyone, I know lots of people who won't get it but damnit I think we should all give it a listen.
