Job Hunting

A weekend by the sea got my daydreaming about a better life going into overdrive again, and whilst I have the Great Road Trip of 2010(TM) to look forward to and plan, I started wondering about how nice it would be if I didn't do what i was doing at the moment. Maybe that means a new job, maybe a new town to live in, I'm not sure. But getting time out of London definitely clears your head, and I am now sitting at the computer trying to start looking for jobs, or at least updating my CV.

Of course, it takes more than a bit of idle thought to turn wistful pondering into actions - it takes direction, drive and ambition, as well as hard work. So far tonight I have watched Hollyoaks and a documentary about gangs (featured towns - Glasgow and Brixton - hmmmm....), smoked about four rollies, spent an hour looking for a used car on Autotrader and the last little while spying on my own house via the Superzoom photos on 192.com. It's really rather marvellous, as long as you find it exciting looking at people sunbathing in Trafalgar Square. I managed to have a look at the roof of my house and the deck chairs in our back garden, and got a bit bored quite quickly. Efforts to find any random celebrity's house proved fruitless - at least to the best of my knowledge. So here we are, almost 10pm and yet again I've failed miserably to do anything constructive, unless downloading "The Wire" is classed as such. Which in terms of life plans, I don't think it is.....
