When You're Served Lemons...

OK. So I'm still feeling a bit black and nihilistic about it all, but I am managing to deal with my demons again. Maybe it's the fact my back doesn't seem to hurt as much as it has been, or maybe it was the fact work was quite easy today (although very cold - the heating's not working properly and I had to wear my happy hat indoors throughout) Or maybe I just thought getting mad, or sad, about my circumstances in life won't get me anywhere. And moaning about it in this blog isn't going to help either. Actions, however, will do. So I turned off Twitter and my iPhone and spent Sunday getting some things sorted out. Followed by a nice, long rest. And tonight, I'm doing the same thing, and my house is a little tidier than it was as well. Channelling my anger into constructive things certainly works :) let's hope I can continue like this!

I had to walk home today as I forgot to take my travelcard with me - but actually it wasn't that bad as I discovered a little park on the way home I'd never been in before, and it was actually a pleasurable little walk. On the way home I started thinking of this track from my teenage years. I loved it then, and haven't heard it for ages, so first task when I got home today was to hit up Spotify to listen to it, and then hope I could find a linkable video of it on YouTube so I could put it here.

If anyone needs me, I'll be making lemonade. Perhaps for real!

Ever wondered what the current national debt of the UK is? Well, this is it - so big that the commas are in the wrong place! That's over a trillion pounds and rising.

Some of my favourite tracks. Expect a heavy bias towards the 1980s :) There's over an hour's worth of music here. Once started, the playlist will change tracks automatically, but you can use the arrows at either side (or the second button on the player bar) to skip forward and back. Enjoy!
