Mojo

By your silence I presume you are in today. That was to the very nice, now ex, young lady what I was going out with for an all too brief period. Geography getting in the way. Long distance relationships - bad!

Hey ho, back to the grind for us wage slaves to earn a buck or two in order to fulfil our dreams. Which are what? I dunno. This/next year is going to be different. Not something I normally say, New Year's resolutions are pointless, why make them when what needs to be done can be done when required, but I know that so much is going to happen these coming months that I am feeling tired already. So, the health and fitness programme is gearing up to take me there. There's going to be some serious running this year, attack a few specified races, ultras, marathons. Feeling empty at the moment, a void to be filled. Kickstart the social life again, got to meet some new, different people. But where? Salsa or Ceroc class? Evening class? Always pretty dire. Online dating seems to be a bit hit and miss. Random person in pub. Not sure about that. I know there's nothing wrong with me, just not meeting anybody. Perhaps travel about a bit, get some fresh ideas. Amazing how stale everything feels.

How did you manage it, get lucky that is? Where did you meet him? Am completely fed up with the people around me, always arguing and drinking. Or drinking and arguing. Need to get out and find some others. But where? Back to Ceroc? Try Salsa? What other avenues are there? I need someone smart, clever, imaginative. My bloody brain is going into meltdown with the tedium of it all. Need to do some work on those profiles I guess and start afresh. Activity holidays is something I've been toying with. A few like minded, similarly single souls, doing something adventurous. Sounds good to me.

And then there is the whole house / work balance thing. More drama. More thought required.

Am off to Club La Santa tomorrow for a week. A week of running, swimming, gym and yoga. Bliss. Get a tan, loose some weight, start the new regime. Fantastic. Was advised to; Just try and relax on your holiday, you have the rest of the year to plan and worry, just let go for a few days. Sound stuff, really. Did a 3.5M race yesterday, bit hilly, mostly on road, 22:34 mins, which was quite reasonable and I felt pretty good afterwards, so I'm getting there.

Later kids
