I have been struggling for blogging inspiration lately, and am hoping that by making this post, and commenting on various events of the previous week, I can inspire myself to get back on track…

Tuesday I finished work early and made, what I hoped to be, my final trip into town this side of Christmas. As I have mentioned before, I hate shopping when it’s busy. In fact, I bought the vast majority of this years Christmas presents online, thus avoiding the madness of town.

During just one short trip into Bath City Centre, I had the ordeal of facing pissed tramps and their dogs on the bus, slow old people walking down narrow high streets and mothers with wide pushchairs in shopping aisles, making overtaking impossible.

I made a lot of successful purchases, but as always, there were items that I forgot. Next week I will have to try and finish work early and make yet another trip into the abyss.

The rest of the week was rather stressful. Due to staff absence, I was left virtually on my own at work, leaving me feeling rather flustered, stressed and tired.

When Friday finally did come I was knackered. I did find the energy to watch Jaws on DVD with Simon. Jaws being one of my favourite films of all time and one which I had not seen for some years. Last night I attempted to watch Steven Spielberg’s other monster movie, Jurassic Park. It was no good. The fatigue hangover from the previous week had caught up with me and I went to bed at some ridiculously early time, sleeping well into Sunday.

And now here I am, writing this blog, full refreshed (well, less tired) and ready for another five days back at the workhouse. Life couldn’t be better.
