Somewhere in time

I was awoke a few times in the night, once by a big crash then a girl shouting I'm sorry several times. But by the time I had got dressed in the dark to go and investigate they had moved on. From this point on I vowed to wear pyjamas so that would never happen again.

I was also woken up at some point by my Asians room mates, that's right there where now two Asians in my room not talking to me. This is starting to concern me for I'm only in a 4 bed doom and if they want to double in size again they would need me out of the picture.

When I awoke properly I really didn't know what time it was, this was made worst by all 3 of my time keeping devices telling me radically different times. After getting dressed I found out that I had been asleep for 14 hours and it was the mid-afternoon already. I was concerned - even though this was a great way to save money as I would only need to eat one meal today this was a bad omen. Given the power vacuum due to most of my mind being disorientated and truly not knowing the time.

The Unemployed part of my brain made a blatant grab for power, for it was confident what ever the time or what ever country I resided in I was presently without employment. I could already feel the procrastination about looking for work kicking in. I would have to do something about this. I'll do it tomorrow.

Anyway I've entered a pool tournament tonight and for me to stand any chance of ... well potting some balls I need to drink 2 and a half points to get in my pool playing zone before the start.

Ah Asian roommates, that's normally a very interesting experience. Good luck on all your travels Mike! I'll be keeping track of this blog to see how it all goes. Have shitloads of fun!

Very colourful! Wish I was brave enough to do something like that, must be pretty exciting and not at all humdrum like normal life. I always get a buzz when I wake up in another country! Hope its not too stressful!
