Random Ramblings

Eek, it's been nearly a month since I've had a chance to blog. But I have some good excuses/reasons!

1. I started a new job.
2. I've been working on my next painting.
3. I've been house hunting.
4. The new season of Scrubs started.

1. I started a new job

I'm still working in London, 10 minutes away from where I was before in fact! And there I was worrying that I'd have to give up my lovely long commute into work whenever I changed jobs. No chance. Although I have recently discovered the customer complaint forms on the TFL website. You can fill these out when your tube journey has been delayed by 15 minutes or more and you will get refunded back your money - hooray! And rightly so, humph.

TFL makes these forms rather tricky to find (the sneaky bastads). To save you time, here they are: TUBE REFUNDS

2. I've been working on my next painting

I've finished my next painting. I tried out something a bit different this time and experimented with opalescent paint and ballerinas. I used to do ballet from a very young age right up until I went to uni. I really miss it actually, it's a great way to stay in shape and keep fit. Alas, I have hung my ballet shoes up for the time being and am now scarily unfit. I did buy a brand new bike this time last year with the aim of getting fitter and sporting healthy rosy cheeks. So far I've taken it out twice. Ah well, there's always eBay!

Anyways, I'll post my painting soon.

3. I've been house hunting

I was hoping to move out and rent somewhere a bit closer to London to cut down on my travelling time. But then if I did that, what would I have to complain about?! This plan has now been put on hold till next year.

4. The new season of Scrubs started (yay)

Ah Scrubs, how I love it.

And in the meantime, I still haven't finished reading The God Delusion. Although I am very near the end...I plan to finish it tomorrow as I'm heading off to Wales for a conference (either that or I will take my macbook and watch Sex and the City on the train - dilemmas dilemmas).

What I've read so far has been brilliant. Thought-provoking and enlightening to say the least. I think everyone should read it, whether you're an atheist, agnostic or theist. I'll be sure to blog about it soon. And once I'm done with that, maybe I'll read The Dawkins Delusion which my mother rushed off to buy as soon as she caught sight of me reading The God Delusion!
