Mad time
Time for a bit of a dribble, in terms of dribbling out a bit of story.
Spent this weekend at P's, as the last one, after the small incident of the roof leaking into his kitchen and ruining almost everything, coupled with less than helpful letting agents. He asked me for some cheering up and I hope I obliged, though no doubt he'll tell me otherwise (:P Interesting trip on the way there though, as I came via a different route than normal which can always be quite interesting, and since not in a hurry was to be enjoyed. Except for the fact that the trains seem to be on turbo-charged heating, just in time for the warmest January days on record, nice one again the train companies! Reason for detour was to go and look at a particular bike that I have now put a deposit down on and am looking forward to riding the hell out of the coming weekend, once I get insured and bank funding sorted for it. Have also the desire to spend a lot of spondooliks on a new riding suit, but I really cant stretch to it. No, I really cant, much as I'd like. Bloggardes, please all forbid me to buy as I'm lacking the willpower.
Anyhow, it's a GSX750F a little like this one, though this is a 1-year later model, and mine is a lighter shade of grey.
So Jon-ster is all happy, and hopefully the lack of red will stop him going faster. Not least because the insurance is also going to cost a pretty packet, what with my decision to go for a fully comp. lot for the reassurance. Also need to buy paddock stand for occasional bouts of chain fiddling. Will once again be able to go where and when I want, and a little of this spray will keep the rust down too, buying food never held such fascination before! Already planning a nice long summer of riding, riding, riding.....bonza (:-)
Work has been slow today, what with arriving slightly late on the train looking dishevelled - badly needing a shave here - and working up two reactions on the trot, what effort! Tuesday is to be spent working harder, though obviously the bike errands take precedence. Feeling quite on top of things, though I'm getting the feeling that the next few months or so will be spent not doing very much (wet) chemistry at all, I'll be running about doing modelling and the like.....fun. Well, it probably will be, but I think my days will be very unstructured and you knows how I likes to have plans, and my little lists.
No real other big news to tell, still verging on the porky side of porky, still not meditating (big news), still not doing lots of reading. But on the other hand, I've dinged up my alt shaman in WoW to a respectable lvl 46 in less than a week of playtime, so it's not like I've achieved nothing at all........
Needing new experiences to have something interesting to talk about, really. Hence need for bike-age. And hopefully soon, a long-planned trip to the capital.
Oh yes, and the Sweeney Todd film is very good, if a tad grand guignol and lacking in character development. Enjoyed. Recommend.
