Dearest neglected livejournal friends,

Aug 07, 2011 19:57

All evidence from my previous LJ entries leads to the conclusion that I've become a serial Live Journal procrastinator. While this may indeed be the case, life of late has been relatively mundane, unlike many others of late. So I'll put this thought stream behind a cut as may touch on some uncomfortable things (but I'm really not sure).



Well about the mundane stuff first. Things have been rather good of late. It's been a little boring to post about and in fact I've not set aside time to write one. I started gym with the idea just give my fitness a bit of a boost but it's turning into quite a habit. Until last week I've been going four to five times a week, using it as motivation for an early start to the day and getting into uni by eight in the morning. That was until I did my back this week on the leg press and spent Thursday morning trying to get out of bed because of it. That's right. I spent the entire morning just trying to get out of bed. Alex (the builder) knocked up a walking stick for me and I've been off for the rest of the week, on painkillers and getting bored.

Luckily the doctor says that it's unlikely that I've damaged a disk and have only sprained muscles and ligaments. Prognosis is that I'll be on my feet properly sometime next week. It doesn't sound like a long but I've been going stir crazy over the last couple of days, hobbling about and unable to even sit at my desk properly. Luckily I've had 'Game of Thrones' to keep me entertained.

I've felt the least bothered by the distance I've had from my friends since moving but a few events of late have been a reminder of the strait. Some of my best and closest friends have been through significant changes in their lives. They've been in my thoughts and I've felt conflicted about writing about it and that's probably because it's echoed my recent past. To be honest I don't know what the hell is going on. I'm glad I'm not prone to superstition because if I were I'd likely think the relationships of my friends have been hexed of late. I think off hand about half of the couples I know have split in the last few months.

If there's one thing I know from what they're all going through is that each break up is as individual as each relationship. So I feel a bit lost confronting or giving advice with this sort of thing even though I've intimate experience with it. So when I do it seems a bit bland and superficial. If it does it's because I don't want to project. I just hope that your friends can keep you close by.

Right I'm going to shuffle off for pizza, comfortable with the uncertainty in life.
