If I want to get fit then I need to exercise - this means going to the beach and swimming. But Y'know, it's been a while so I have to take it easy. And after a good little swim I need to recoup by lying in the sunshine on the sand for a bit. I wasn't lazing at the beach or procrastinating - i was "exercising". There you go - justified.
How can I be so incredibly busy yet feel so incredibly lazy at the same time. Is that a contradiction?
Maybe if I wasn't so lazy, I'd actually get everything done and therefore wouldn't feel stupid busy.
Been sleeping in, got a new car stereo installed, did a chunk of Christmas Shopping (YAY - toys are us!!), did Sculptures by the sea, caught up with mates and made some new old connections.
Things are so disposable these days. I buy a new pair of Havaianas every year, cars aren't made to last much more than 5 years, financial records only have to be kept for 5 years, I disposed of my marriage after only 3 years, I work freelance contracts. Everything is disposable. BUT beware - Things have a tendancy to come around again.
I have been making new connections with people from my past this week. I got an email from someone from the very beginning of my career 18 years ago asking me to work on his new project, and I also found someone I worked with back in 96 by the pure coincidence of doing a small favour for a friend. Very Random! People remember you - it can be good and bad - but so far it's been good for me.
I really need to reduce my alcohol intake of late (I blame you ROB!) I have been drinking like I am on holidays - ie Often. The other downfall is the saturday morning sleep in and hangover which means you don't get your ass to the beach until all the bloody tourists have set up camp.

HIGHLIGHTS
HINKY DINKS - highly recommended small bar at 185 Darlinghurst Road. I had a Dinky 5-0 cocktail. So yeah, a funky 60's decor with cool cocktail names, little kitchen containers like my mum has and they have a mini popcorn maker!! So much fun. But get in early - they close at midnight.
BANK ACCOUNT - A hefty surprise pay out from the corporate job that i quit. Happy Bank account! :-)
So there you go - my priorities and what makes me happy - alcohol, money and cute popcorn makers!
