I cannot believe how quickly this year is going. Only ten weeks (ish) of 2008 left... it's been an okay year. I feel like I have much more of an idea about what I want to do, where I want to go... haven't done that much about actually getting there, however :)
Work is even more stressful than usual - a couple of people have been fired/made redundant, which is not doing anyone's motivation any good, least of all mine! I am keeping my head down and ploughing on until the Christmas break, hoping that those couple of weeks off might give me the time and space that I need to make some decisions and make some changes.
I met up with some friends from university a couple of weeks ago - one of the girls I haven't seen since our English Lit graduation ceremony in 2003! I was most jealous to hear that she is nearlya qualified teacher AND is doing an MA in poetry, where she is tutored by Andrew Motion. Andrew fricking Motion. The poet laureate (not that he likes his job very much).
I WANT TO BE BACK AT UNIVERSITY!!!
Thankfully, I'm going to see David Tennant in Love's Labour's Lost next week, which should take my mind off things...!!! And I'm writing lots at the moment too... though sadly it's for the Day Job, meaning that it's all dull, dull, dull pieces of copy for dull, dull, dull audiences. Well, At least it's something...
