always get me down. (badly misquoting the Carpenters)
it's so depressing when I take ages to get to church and after 2 buses and 2 trains, i'm still late. and then, repeat 4 times every sunday. the journey really stresses me out. i estimate a total of about 5 hours every sunday spent feeling sick on the public transport network, bleah.
today was especially bad, because the jubilee line was down (again) and it started pouring after church so I was entirely drenched. I guess the lack of daylight makes it worse because when i was on the DLR going to church at 5+pm, the operator was asking some people if they had far to go before getting home, and i was actually travelling AWAY from home, knowing full well that I have to come back the same way. in the night, coming home after YF, it was freezing cold too, winter's just depressing. i also forgot to tap my oyster card when i got off the DLR today, so i incurred another £4.30 penalty charge on top of my already maxed out my day's travel (£6.30 or something like that?)in the 1st half of the day.
it's remembrance Sunday today, maybe it's meant to be a sober and sad day anyways.
i also don't really like having dinner at 10pm on Sunday nights and then sleeping late and starting Monday feeling really crabby.
therefore, i REALLY need to find a solution, and i need a solution fast. this is driving me crazy. every week i feel more and more like giving up.
in other news, work has been stressful too. it's appraisal season - i meant to write my appraisal over the weekend but never got down to it. there are also a million refinancings. why do all companies decide to do the same thing all at the same time, grrr. and project por cu pine flopped, it was just announced :(
3.5 more weeks to finish up for the year. come on Carol, time to man up. :( SO MUCH WORK.
Rainy days and Mondays will get me down-er. so it better not rain tomorrow!
come home then! you can complain about the MRT from CCK to town and still reach home in 1.5hrs... heh
