Out with June, in with July.
I'm quite relieved.
I'm not sure what it is about June but I had a pretty rotten time last year too...I hope this is not a pattern that will continue to repeat.
(Surely not).
All change tomorrow though!
Good times ahead please.

midweek
Today involved ice lollies, cake, cocktails & canapes, a little bit of cycling, a paddle in the sea, a man on a surf board and a floating mystery.
Now I have pink arms and feel a tad guilty for enjoying myself so much.
Tomorrow I will do plenty of homework, and then some work work & that might balance it out.
I'm also going to get up very early for a swim.
This may not happen, but if it does then I'm going to swim at least 1km.
Good plan? I'd say so!

54 miles
Lewes Road doesn't make me very happy either.
Rosie, Yumi and I have decided we're going to do it next year.
And I'm going to smile all the way. Even when we're struggling over Ditchling Beacon.

never eat shredded wheat
Yesterday I took Yumi's feng shui advice and slept with my head at the other end of my bed. Apparently having your feet facing south leads to a better night's sleep.
I'm not sure it worked.
I still managed to wake up before my alarm, at 7am, on a saturday! (bad form). I'll try it again tonight though as maybe it takes a bit of getting used to.
Today I am off to the Achromat gallery in Brighton, which is run by my friend Sam. It's exciting & shiny & new & there is a performance on at 2pm! (Do come along if you're around!)
In other news, apparently it was national shades day yesterday. I'm not sure I actually wore my sunglasses during the day but I'll make sure to wear them a lot today to make up for it.

breakfast with tiffany
It's national bike week at the moment.
Today I got a free breakfast and a bike pump - good times!
Have a peek here for other bicycle events happening in Brighton this week.

nudity & nice tea
Today was the day of the naked bike ride.
I did a drawing from memory (as it felt rather wrong to sit & sketch the real event).
It was an interesting sight indeed - the highlights being a naked penny-farthing rider & a striptease from a unicyclist.
One man asked if I'd like to take a photograph of him to show my friends.
I declined.
I think my friends will thank me for it.

have a heart hat
Yesterday I felt a bit lost.
Then I put on my pigeon hat, went to the fishing museum & drank rather a lot of wine.
I also ate strawberry shortcake without the strawberries & made plans to visit some dachshunds.
Today I feel a lot better.
I don't even mind the fact that my head is pounding.

square one
This last few days I have:
• Finished my mum's blanket.
• Made many cheese straws and eaten
• Cried in too many places: in pubs, in cafes, in cars, on peoples shoulders, in front of the man who came to fix the boiler. It really must stop soon.
...or maybe I can find a career that utilizes this newly found skill?
• Walked and cycled and swam and walked and cycled and walked some more (and still found myself waking at 6am).
• Welcomed a cat into my home, and let him leave again (that last bit was hard).
• Made a plan. A plan to stick to.
Now my head feels like my desk looks - a bit messy and mostly empty.
Hopefully next week will be different.
