This morning I was feeling 'rejuvenated' - that being the word I picked out of the list on LJ, as it seemed to sum it all up pretty well.

Now, several hours on, I just feel knackered. I'm bored, and it's hot here, and I just want to doze off. I must start getting to bed earlier than I actually do. Five and a half hours sleep is not enough - and that's assuming that I doze off straight away, and don't wake up during the night. My fault, I know, but old habits die hard.

God, it's only just turned 3.00 as I type this - I'm sure my watch is going backwards. Since just before lunch, it has felt an hour later than it actually is; I wondered why there was such a good selection in the sandwich shop.

As it is comparatively quiet, I have the earphones on, and am listening to music, which helps - provided it doesn't serve me too much sixties' Motown in one go, and lull me to sleep at my desk (yes, I like Motown - it ain't all prog rock, you know - though when I was 16 it was a closely guarded secret).

Just to pass the time, here is the ten i-tunes on shuffle meme resurrected and regurgitated, which will consume more time, especially as the first to pop up is:

1 Providence - King Crimson (from Red);
2 Feelin' Bad - Spooky Tooth (from the retrospective, That Was Only Yesterday);
3 Hold Your Head High - Jackie de Shannon (from the Best of Jackie de Shannon);
4 Walls (No.9) - Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers (from She's The One);
5 Good Behaviour - The Little Ladies (from Rock Follies OST);

[A twenty minute gap then ensued - if gaps can ensue - here, while I talked to the boss and tried -successfully, I think - to pretend that I was working.

And now, back to the list:

6 Happy Home - Garbage (from Bleed Like Me);
7 I'm Mandy, Fly Me - 10cc (from How Dare You!);
8 Forever Autumn - The Moody Blues* (from Best of the Moody Blues);
9 2-4-6-8 Motorway - Tom Robinson Band (from The Sound of the Suburbs);
10 Fix Me Now - Garbage (from Garbage).


And now I've just discovered that I have enough (very crumbly) baccy for one last rollie… Fan-frikken-tastic.
