I get the feeling h2g2 is fragmenting, falling apart and regenerating - different people, the old ones getting bored and moving away, or having too much of other things to do. I wonder what's happening, but all over the parts of the world that this journal deals with the answer seems to be: "nothing."
My interest in what I'm doing is waning, too. Mind you, I'm not doing all that much, apart from writing here, so my interests are fairly easy to replace! I miss the people I used to talk to on such a regular basis, however, and no new ones have made themselves known.
I wonder...

I love playing guitar, even if I don't sound all THAT melodic - but I think that that might be permissible with blues, anyway. It does make a change from singing Wesleyan hymns in the shower.
I like exercising, too. I did my first BodyCombat class without strapping my toe that I'd done for a while today, and it was good. I soaked myself in sweat, as usual, and managed to have some pictures taken of myself doing it, for posting at some time very soon, I hope... The person who was taking the pictures is a very sweet girl who I would love to know a little better, but opportunities are limited, it seems...
Weather was spectacularly clear and autumnal, today. Now it's just dark.
If I can get myself into gear some good research is on the cards in the near future, as well as a trip home to see my parents - and to have a bit of a break. Getting myself into gear may take a while, though: I'm still working on cleaning my room after all those hypos I had, a while back (paper, everywhere...
).
Life goes on, and sometimes it moves at a pedestrian pace.

I have an idea...!
Interesting times are upon us, and the challenges can be met in many ways. It will be an experience finding out how this can be done. I've half a mind to investigate becoming a fitness instructor, if I can ever get over my injuries!
Weather is beautiful again, which has coincided nicely with the cessation of sinus symptoms that I have been suffering, which just goes to show how sympathetic the weather is with my state of being.
I wonder what tomorrow will bring...?

My face hurts so much I no longer even notice my sore foot. There are blessings in small mercies, I believe.
Weather: beautiful, cooling. Bicycling: being taken very easy at present in my drug-addled, painful condition. Dogs: considered uniformly awful (sorry, bubster, but your puppies aren't big, smelly German Shepherds which live inside...).
Life goes on, it just doesn't seem to be going anywhere in particular, at the moment...!

This is one of those Autumn days where it feels like the sun is never going to shine again. The weather is fine enough, but there are clouds which keep blowing across the sun: it's making the endurance of everything else I have to put up with today a bit of a chore.
For all that, the endurance of everything else I have to put up with is becoming a little easier every day, it's just that the increments are far too small. I cannot reconcile myself to having a headache all the time with blocked sinuses, because I hardly ever have headaches for any other reason at all. I cannot reconcile myself to being unemployed, because I know that, even if I am not the most capable, I am still a very capable individual. I cannot reconcile myself to having no bed, because I have hardly ever slept on the floor for extended periods of time. I cannot reconcile myself to being a "risk", because everything I do is done for a purpose - which I can explain if anyone is willing to listen, only nobody is. Even if they do it is always decided that their purpose, rather than mine, is more important. I am finding continued disregard, belittling and lack of cooperation very difficult to bear - even though they don't really affect me quite as badly as that might make it sound, or even exist, for that matter.
It's just a "down" day...
Hold on: the sun's started shining again!
