Happy New Year! Long time no speak. I hope you all had a good holiday.
Things have been pretty good as of late... work is going well, I'm enjoying my personal life immensely due to getting back into Wargaming, and Sarah and I have now been engaged for over a year with plans in motion. Pretty exciting stuff.
2013 is going to be pretty standard. The year I see my 27th Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter.
Feeling pretty down this evening though... feels like everything is screwing up at home. The front door buzzer isn't working, light fixtures are broken, kitchen cabinet doors need fixed/replacing and the bathroom walls are starting to get pretty bad with mould... all minor things, but they weigh on your mind. We're going to be highlighting these to our landlord pretty sharpish.
The worst thing though? Cockroaches. Over the past couple of days, Sarah and I have started noticing these guys about the flat. Today I came home to find 3 in the fridge. They don't bother me, I'd happily pick one up, but still, the fact they're in the flat is pretty depressing and unnerving. We really need to get that sorted... obviously this is priority one.
Add that to the constant state (or what feels like a constant mess at least) due to the cat litter and straw that gets spread about, I just feel like I live in a total tip. The hoover we have, while quite new, is just rubbish at picking up the bits, and even when I do get the place clean, it's messy again in a couple of hours.I just don't feel like I can commit to pets any more, as the cat and rabbit seem to be annoying me more so than comforting me. It's caused a couple of arguments between Sarah and I. I really hope, when the animals are gone, that I can spend a good one or two years animal free. Totally selfish I understand, but still, I just need a break from the responsibility.
If only I won the lottery.
If only I played the lottery.
Fuck it.
