So I’m in bed with me netbook, supposed to be organising things, reading my paper and whatwhat. But I’m feeling a bit maudlin and I have a bit of a headache, which I don’t normally have, what’s up with that.
This weekend was not awfully productive. Played some Xbox, watched some TV, saw District 9 (it was alright, dare I say slightly over-hyped?), had some friends over for dinner yesterday so there was a lot of cooking and cleaning involved.
I baked banana bread. It was nummy. We were having that toasted and topped with mascarpone cream and honey ala Melissa’s. Then I checked the label on that triple cream and saw it’s 50% fat wtf?! Bad mascarpone, bad bad!
And then I felt fat. And then I felt sad. And then I had chips! And then I felt fat. And then I felt sad.
Something cyclical about that.
So here we are. Me feeling like my life needs a bit of an overhaul. And feeling somewhat sad and aimless. And like I’ve had just about enough of Joburg. Getting them itchy feet again. Want to pack everything in a duffel bag and catch the next flight out of here, just me and Intrepid Hubby. Of course, on a trainee stipend that ain’t gonna happen.
*sigh*
I’m losing my lus, like seriously. Need a change.
Come to Cape Town…good friends, good walks in outdoors, good…well, pretty much everything
Plus, we miss you!
OMG! You hit the nail right on the head for me. I’ve been complaining about the same things since last week. I’m so tired of life in JHB…actually SA in general that I could pack and and leave tomorrow, seriously. I need some serious changes around here.
I would like to add a huge ‘ME TOO’ to your last paragraph, although I’d substitute ‘Joburg’ with ‘Life in General’.
