I’ve been in an odd mood all day today. I think maybe it has to do with the fact that I’m exhausted… an early start on Monday plus a couple of bad night’s sleep are the culprits. So nothing has changed in the new year then. My train home was delayed, then as soon as I arrived back in Karlsruhe I went into town to transfer some money and do the shopping. By the time I got home all I could do was put the shopping away and make tea (which is now eaten). Only 11 days into the new year and I already feel like my entire life consists of nothing but work and what would be called chores if I wasn’t all growed up (I spent most of the weekend doing housework!). It’s like ground hog day, except that my version is at least broken up by weeknds. Perhaps I’m living a ground hog week instead? Except that in my version time actually progresses, it’s just me that’s stuck in a loop. I think I need a new hobby. Something productive that will make me feel like I’m actually doing something – but nothing that feels too much like work. Ideas anyone?

Sleep. That’s going to be my new hobby, I think: I enjoy it, it’s fun and easy to do, and I never get to do it enough. Yes, sleep.

Do you like to cook? I’ve been enjoying creating new filling meals. Could be a new hobby for you too!
P.S. Germany celebrates Groundhog Day? I didn’t know that! 🙂
pinklea – sleep sounds like a great idea. Maybe I should just hibernate til Spring!
Pauline – I do like to cook! I already make all our meals though, and I experiment a LOT. By the way, they don’t celebrate Groundhog Day here – I was just talking about the film.
