Today was my last day out of the office this week - thank God! I carried out my third presentation in nine days today - for one of the webs most prolific travel companies! I presented to seven experienced copywriters in London - and also to their office in the States via a live video web link! Pretty mental stuff! It went really well - largely thanks to the incredible amount of practice I’ve had with this presentation over the last two weeks. I can recite parts of it word for word, and have been dreaming it during what little sleep I’ve had! Next Friday has been scheduled in to do it again; and yesterday, I booked my 5th trip to Edinburgh this year in November, the day after I return from Switzerland!
It’s funny how elated one can feel when something you have had direct control over has gone well. I practically bounced through the Underground on the way back to Brighton - smiling merrily at the businessmen, who were too irritated to notice; their faces pressed against the windows of Mr Livingston’s heaving electric train set. The elation didn’t last long - I got home feeling absolutely shattered and couldn’t even be bothered to pop open a celebratory beer. It’s all catching up on me - the travelling - the talking - the poor diet - the lack of exercise (I haven’t been to the gym in 2 weeks!) At least there was some good Football on TV tonight - Chelsea were awesome, Liverpool likewise. The players may be overpaid foreigners and the owners may be raping ex-soviet nations of their mineral wealth, but its good to see English teams doing so well!
So the weather - why is it so warm? All my flying maybe? Its so spring-like, I have an urge to play Cricket! I’ve been finger spinning an apple all day - so much so in fact its too bruised to eat - and I haven’t even dropped it. I’ve carefully crafted a shiny side and a rough side so I can try to get some reverse swing. Of course, I can only bowl it once before it shatters into a thousand mushy fragments! No, really, I am too tired. Waffling, Must sleep. Good Morrow.
