Stop Thinking

Routine couple of days, not much out of the ordinary to talk about. I've been late for work the past couple of days (5 minutes today - late trains, 30 minutes yesterday - slept in), to add to my sick day on Tuesday and my being an hour late last Friday. However, I don't really care, and neither should you, good readers.
On that subject, I have a ton of work to do, but again... I really don't care. Not that I'm not going to do it, it's just that I'm not letting myself getting too stressed about it. Life's too short, it'll all get done eventually.
Still not feeling too good, but I'm starting to think now that I'm over the flu thing I had going a couple of days, and what I've got now is just this year's hayfever kicking in... the usual snotty nose and all that stuff. Pain in the arse if it is, but it'll pass soon enough, usually does these days. I've pretty much gone deaf in my left ear from my sinuses being bunged up, which is kinda funky, actually. Rock 'n' roll will probably do this damage to me permanantly in a few years, so I might as well get used to it...
Been suprisingly good at looking after myself this week, too. Eating proper meals (with vegatables and everything) that I've cooked up instead of the usual lazy junk-food fest that my diet usually consists of. Been eating fruit... lots of apples and oranges. Been having some healthy sandwiches for lunch, instead of the usual crap. Hell, I've even been making time for a bit of breakfast before coming to work. Haven't been out drinking or anything(haven't been well enough to anyway), but I'm still smoking too much and drinking too many cups of coffee, so I'm not completely free of toxins. One step at a time, yeah?
No update on my Gran, she's still exactly where she was when I saw her. My poor Ma must be knackered by now... on the subject, lots of similar bad things happening to a few friends of mine, to varying degrees of severity. Fuckin' weird that bad things are happening to everyone at the same time... trying to keep as level-headed as I can, though. The Show Must Go On, and all that shit. And that's about all I have to say on that for now. Gonna call my Mum tonight and see if I can maybe get out there to see my Gran again this weekend, though. Might get my sis out again, but Meech is back for the weekend so there might not be room. We'll see.
Free time has mostly been spent hanging out with myself this week... what with Meech being away, Jinty not being around (she's having to go to her placement at Blantyre stupidly early in the morning, too much hassle to get there from Paisley), I've been sick anyway so it's all good. I've mostly amused myself watching DVDs and playing MGS2: Substance on my PC, nothing too exciting... a little bit of 'self' time goes a long way though, y'know?
Still not much happening band-wise, but that's OK for now because 3/4 members of the band have some bad stuff to be dealing with at the moment... I personally think it's good to have the band as an outlet for when everything else is shit, but there's a time and a place, and it's not right now, it'll get rolling properly again soon enough. Landed a couple of sweet gigs with some cool people yesterday, though... plenty to look forward to in the near future.
I'm sure when I started writing this entry I had some more interesting things to say, I guess not. Best I get back to work, anyway.
