I'm not the man you think I am...I am a poor freezingly cold soul...I have just discovered that prudence never pays. Now, we must wait for the right time

The more they stay the same. Here I am, Saturday night, and in my element, not doing anything. The thing is, I'm grateful for the break, truth be told. Almost every other weekend has some sort of social event booked in my diary (how very professional), and with the long working hours that traditionally accompany this time of year in my line of work, any time off over the weekend is cherished.

So...I've taken up watching the NFL. One part of my final dream (the end goal, where I saw myself at the age of 30 or so) has been to come home from work, sitting on a sofa in a different continent, watching American sports while drinking beer. So I guess Saturday nights can prove to be a training ground of sorts, seeing if the final dream finally comes into fruition. Sad, eh? I am a simple man, however, so such things are a luxury to me.

The past week has been a strange one. Different emotions have been flying through my head, mainly creating mass confusion in my thoughts rather than anything else. Life requires such emotional swings however, to keep things interesting. The only boat that doesn't rock is one that isn't going anywhere. So the possibility of storms is one that is to be embraced, rather than feared.

I had a read at Sullen/Haze's journal earlier on, and it's funny how time has indeed flown. I personally can't believe how long I've been here, even though I was more of a passive visitor over the last year. Yet it's difficult to see just how life has progressed. Sure, I now look a bit older (I can almost go to a pub without being ID'd these days), but ultimately my place in society has largely remained the same - a dreg. Who knows, maybe this will be my year...

Touchdown Patriots...Now, where's that beer?

    I indeed hope this is your year, Jac. As I hope it's a good one for me as well...
