Bedtime

Sunday night, just before bedtime - it's quite strange being back at work, and I think I'm still a little apprehensive about what the place is going to be like. I suppose it's mainly because I haven't done anything for them yet, so I have no standing - I don't know if I'm good or bad compared to the other developers, and they don't know either.

Starting so late in the year I don't have any holiday to take either, so I don't have the luxury of contiguous holiday over the Christmas and New Year periods - I'd never normally work that period, but because I have to I just feel a bit like I don't have any time to collect my thoughts before I start the job in earnest. Seems strange really, given I've just been off work for two months, but I really feel I need a holiday.

While I remember - went for a short run today - took my cycle route to work up as far as Stourbridge common, then cut back along the river and then down to Parkers Piece and back home via the cycle bridge and the back roads parallel to Mill Road. Took about 45 minutes.
