Leftovers

I'm sitting here at 5.14p.m. in an empty office (apart from my boss who just came back) and I'm pretty much ready to call it a day.

And what makes it worse, today, I've had my first "afternoon nod-off" in ages. Oh yeah, you know what I mean. When you're sitting in a completely quiet room and there's no music, no nothing and you're supposed to be staring whilst reading a research article....zzzzzz. Yep. That was me. Have not had one of those in a while which was...uh, no, not really nice. Just goes to show that energy levels are drooping like mad.

Another little thing that I've started to do lately is that whenever the Girlfriend asks me what I'm thinking, I tell her.

Literally.

It could be anything from the usual "Nothing. I just blanked out there for a moment," to "Oh, you know, I was just thinking about how milk ferments and how people make cheese and then I was looking at the guy in front of me. Yeah, that skinny runt? I was wondering if I could take him in a fight and all. I'm pretty sure I outweigh him by at least 30kg but do you think he can punch? Its one of those Fight Club things...nah, you wouldn't understand..." and she would kind of look at me funny and shake her head.

I'm trying to keep myself entertained. Can you tell?
