mind the gap

21 June 2005

My aunt, uncle and two cousins have been here since a week ago Sunday but I've only spent a few days with them, Sunday and today. I'm tired. I had no idea how annoying 11 year old boys could be. I was so frustrated with the pouting, the incessant asking of comments to be repeated, walking in front of me and then slowing down to hear what I said to his sister. I swear I stepped on him about 10 times in 2 days and once got so frustrated, I actually pushed him out of my way. He's such a brat. He was a bully when he was 3. He's a bully now and manipulative as all get out. Meh.
I've gotten some good work done on my dissertation. My lit. review is done, analysing results is coming along. My methodology will be the next section to really get my attention, probably while I'm home in July.
Looking for a new flat/house sucks. I hate doing it. I hate going places I'm unfamiliar with. I hate dealing with estate agents.

I'm tired. Frank's coming down on Thursday and we're going to the Goodwood Festival of Speed. It's not something I'm interested in but he wants to go so we're off. If nothing else, I'll bring a book or try to learn more about racecars.
