Busy Doing Nothing
May. 13th, 2015 10:05 pmI'm not sure where all the time is going, but I definitely don't seem to be making much progress with things. Which is probably because I was away at the beginning of the month and have been out a considerable number of evenings since I've got back. And the one evening I was home last week the daughter phoned and we talked for nearly an hour. So it's probably unreasonable to be feeling I've done nothing lately - but it's still annoying.
My total wordage until the end of April is about 8,000 down on where it should be if I'm to achieve my target for the year, and I've written very little this month. I read a book last month - "The Master and Margarita" - which I finished on my return from Switzerland, but this month I've managed about three chapters of my new book - I keep meaning to read when I go to bed and then falling asleep.
I have listened to a BBC Radio 3 drama called "The Process", which is an updated version of Kafka's "The Trial". It was odd and I only listened to it because Sam Troughton had the lead role. (In the Telegraph review they say he made the part of Joseph Kay completely believable). A few weeks ago I heard him in the Radio 4 serial "The Blast of War", which took a soldier, wounded in Helmand, back to various other battles fought in years ended '15 (Gallipoli, Waterloo and Agincourt) - I preferred this.
So, nothing much to blog about either. Work is a mixture of budget preparation and complicated costings. My brain may explode.
Oh, and if anyone fancies having a quick look at 975 words of Sherlock BBC, to make sure it makes sense, I'd be grateful.
