Every time I sit down to try and update my blog my brain has just been freezing. So much going on in my head I dunno whether I'm coming or going. I guess I've just been getting so stressed out I feel numb to all around me which is a shame because some good things have been happening. Just the bad makes me forget the good.
* I have a new job
I shall be leaving the bookshop this week after being a 7 month temp! New job isn't terribly exciting but it'll be a new experience and something to add to the CV. I'm going to be assisting the marketing department of a law firm in London. Unfortunately it's only a 3 month contract so I'm going to be commuting for the time being
* Still don't know what's wrong with my dad, it's not cancer which is a relief. But he really doesn't look good. Even my brother is noticing, which is saying something!
* Ah, my brother. Newest diagnosis is his schizophrenic. I don't think that's wholly accurate but then the way they diagnosis mental health problems isn't great. Dare I hope that after 8 years he might finally get some proper treatment?
* I'm being a tourist in London again today
spent the day there after my interview last week and went round some of the Tate Modern. Saw the exhibitions on Duchamp, Man Ray and Picabia as well as Juan Muoz. Got lost in the National Gallery. Do not ask me how I do it but I always get disorientated! I wanted to go see some paintings I liked as a kid and in the process of trying to remember where they might be ended up in the completely wrong place!
* Had an awesome time celebrating my mate's birthday a couple of weeks ago. Couldn't get over how dead one of our old haunts was but up till then was fun. Managed to get a free drink out of my favourite barman the next night. We hadn't been out there for a while due to low funds but he still remembered how I like my margherita
* Caved in and bought some books. I've been so good for so long just working through the list of things I've been meaning to read for ages but the problem of working in a bookshop is you see too many new things! recent reads include Unbearable Lightness of Being, A Long Way Gone and All My Friends Are Superheroes. Currently on The Bloody Chamber but really want to read Beijing Coma, Tokyo9Dream, After Dark (when it finally comes out in normal pb!), English Patient, Soul Mountain... Ah the list could go on!
Whoa, only meant this to be a brief update! I'd best go get ready or I'm gonna miss my train! Can you recommend me a book or movie you think I'd like?! I'll try and get round to redoing my profile so you can see some of the stuff I like, somehow I managed to delete it![confused](https://dz3ixmv6nok8z.cloudfront.net/static/img/emoticons/confused.9b1223c913e4.gif)

Hope the family are ok. Nasty business that but I'm sending my best wishes.
Nothing like new books, I want some more badly. As soon as i get this assignment done I can spend hours on A Darkness at Sethanon.
