My deviated septum appears to be getting worse. I’d be worried about a tumor or something if the other side wasn’t so concave. I hope this isn’t something I’ll need correcting at some point, but my sinuses are pretty stuffy at the moment (I’m just getting over a rather nasty cold) so it’s hard to breathe through my nose.
Not sure if I mentioned this before, but I just got through the latest Jack Reacher novel. Lee Child sure knows how to write a thriller - boy, it was good. I’m constantly impressed by Child’s ability to keep us interested. I saw his tweet the other day about the new one coming out sometime next year. He says he hasn’t really started writing it, but he’s already made a cover, and the covers usually have a reference to the plot, so maybe that’s bullshit. Either way he says he’s shooting for a release this year, so it should be all good. He hasn’t written a bad one yet.
He’s also mentioned something about the next movie; although no concrete details are floating around as yet, he’s confirmed that it’ll be a different director. Well, no offence to Tom “Shorter Than Reacher” Cruise, but I hope it won’t be him in the role. Look, the guy’s just too damned short, and that’s the end of it. I was impressed with some of the dialogue, but for me it just didn’t work.
Finally beat that fucking Antlion in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. Fucking nightmare, let’s move on.
I’m sort of stuck in this weird limbo where I want to move on but I don’t know where. I’ve had it before, but this one is hard. I’m not even begging much, I;m just making enough to survive. Getting free food helps, so I’ve spent the last few days just making, like, five or six pounds, using a couple on internet, and spending the rest on a few cans of beer. Rinse, repeat. It’s no way to live. Truth be told, I’m yearning for female company, if you catch my pretty fucking obvious drift, and I’m not in the right headspace for it. It also doesn’t help that the majority of the women in this town aren’t my type. Shit, I’m actually extremely picky, although if you looked at my previous, say, four girlfriends, you’d think I wasn’t. Well, they had several subtle things in common that aren’t immediately obvious to most.
Jesus, listen to me. Change the subject.
So, yeah, basically I want to go someplace else. Someplace I’ve never been. Sadly, in this country, I’ve been almost everywhere. Not just that, though. The weather. See, I’ve got to pick the optimal time to start moving, because the baggage I have at the moment is insane. I hate travelling with a giant rucksack full of clothes and Army-surplus sleeping bag, because it’s massive weight. Okay, not huge, and in the winter it’s actually better, because aside from the warmth of all the clothes and whatnot, the heavy pack makes you strain a bit more, which helps the circulation, which helps the body temperature. But in the summer that shit’s a killer. You need to be as light as possible.
So I guess I’ll stay under the radar, like I have been doing, and wait until… mmm… maybe March 15th or so, just as the last of the cold dissipates, and it starts getting warmer. Then I’ll head someplace else.
Maybe up north. Maybe back in Somerset. I just don’t know.
