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

So it occurs to me most of my journal entries have been about broader themes than simply what I've done on a particular day. I need to rectify that so this is just about I've done today:

Had a lie-in - didn't get out of bed until 9.30. That was lovely and much-needed.

Went to the strike demo in Bradford. It was quite cool, there was a good turn-out and a lovely atmosphere. The weather wasn't too bad either

Had a pub lunch with a mate and helped him prep for a job interview tomorrow. I've got everything crossed for him.

Bought a new book. Destiny disrupted and it's a history of the world from an Islamic perspective. Only a couple of chapters in but it's fascinating so far. I had hoped to buy Tom Holland's latest book, which covers the the rise and fall of Byzantium, the rise of Islam and the fall of the Sassanids, but it's been put back to April next year.

Came home and watched the latest Glee. It was great.

Went to my group and talked.

I'm really pleased I've kept up with the whole NaJoPoMo endeavour: I've really enjoyed it and it's been the right amount of challenging. Hope I've not been too boring/annoying/offensive.

Never been bored, often given cause and pause for some thinking.

And glad to hear the day and demos went well.

I've enjoyed reading your journals :]

I may not have commented much but I have enjoyed reading them.

A great set of journals, HI. And congrats for completing the 30!

Thanks for all your contributions Honest Iago. It has been much appreciated

They have been eye-opening and thought-provoking HI. I did the opposite, meant to look for general themes in everyday events and in the end turned to the particular rather than the general.

You have a job that affects the world around you and you are extremely committed to it. We have learnt that this month. Again, I thank you for what you do.
