This is going to be a long day

bored already, It's 11:10am.

I went around to the flat last night but only stayed until 7pm. I had a good tidy up and filled in some holes while Nick carried on cutting tiles. Today he starts sticking down the tricky corner pieces. Once they've dried overnight be can begin to assemble and fit the kitchen units. I must say the room looks so much bigger with the floor tiles down. they are a light sandstone colour and look good.

I made chilli chicken noodles last night, it is becoming a bit of a favourite. Then we sat and watched Wimbledon, very predictable and good if you just want to switch off and not have to think. Quite enjoyable but nothing amazing, then we watched the end of Return of the Jedi and went to bed, me with a feeling of great satisfaction, I love the end of that film. Enough Star Wars, I went on about it too much yesteday. But since you're asking, 'A New Hope' is my favourite and 'Empire' my least out of the three, only because it has a depressing ending though and isn't a complete story in itself. The third one is very satisfying but not as good a story as the first.

I am feeling a bit snappy and annoyed, probably I'm tired you there you go. But it would help if my colleagues didn't treat me like an idiot. I am not an idiot and I feel I have to constantly prove this point. I probably have a better education than anyone here and also I am quite intelligent, not to blow my own trumpet but I know I am. I got a higher than average mark on Beat the Nation so it must be true.

I just feel a bit ratty and maybe its time I was doing something a bit more challenging, I have been looking in the paper but there isn't much around. Working here is good but it is like being sat in a comfy sofa, I kind of feel like my life is stagnating around me and my brain is running on almost empty. I have been selling property for three years now, a year of that in Guernsey the rest of the time in England. So with moving around all the time it has been constantly challenging and quite rewarding but it is so much slower and quieter here in Guernsey maybe I need to do something else. But what? I have an arty degree, not very helpful in the workplace. And all I know is selling houses, OK I've done plenty of office work prior to that but it was such a long time ago I'm going to be so rusty. Maybe I could go into the legal side of it and become a conveyancing clark but where would that lead? Or maybe surveying but I don't have any of the relevent qualifications so that would mean studying again. Bleh. I don't want to move back to England to do that, not when I've just bought a flat and am getting married and all the rest of it.

Or maybe I'm just having an off day. A cup of tea and a wee might help, I'm off to do that.
