h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

...it's been quite a while but after the loss of my *third* physical diary this year I decide that this is the best place to store my thoughts, at least until I can find something less easily swiped to transfer everything into. A lot has happened, and also very little of note has taken place. Depends where you're coming from really. Socially, I have been having a ravenous time - as per usual. Both myself and Cathy have moved to Dunluce Avenue (near the genito-urinary clinic, conveniently enough) and her Mancunian other-half has also taken up residence with us. He's quite nice - but ten years our senior and the age gap is slowly but surely beginning to show (Saturday nights in watching Anne Robinson castrating innocents on "The Weakest link" isn't really my cup of tea...but maybe it's Cathy's...).
...college is going to pot. My motivation dwindles sharply when I realise things could actually - for once - take a positive academic turn in my life. I seem to be afraid...or maybe it's just the 'last-minute' complex, wherein one waits for everything to pile up to impossible levels to spur themselves into action. Methinks the latter. My mood is incredibly sombre. Nothing seems to be holding much positivity or colour at present and I appear determined to fulfill my many detractors prophecies.
