Sorry for not writing a lot, Diary. I'm totally burned out and my creative juices have dried up like a... thing... that dries... up.... badly.
The reason for this is the VAST amount of work I'm doing at the moment. As the training regime reaches its final weeks (roll on end of june) I'm having to put and more into it to keep it original and interesting for each group and, more importantly, for me.
The money output for this, though, should be pretty helpful. The cars MOT is in a couple of weeks so I'm going to keep aside my overtime to help put towards that buuuuuuut if it doesn't need any work then I'm going to have some money spare for once. This can go in one of two places. Well, technically 3 but there's no point saving it if I can't add to those savings and I can't as yet. So, two remaining thoughts.
1: A holiday. I haven't been on an actual holiday for ages. I'd like to go away somewhere. Doesn't have to necessarily be abroad but maybe a week away touring Scotland like I used to when I was young. This is an immediate and proactive idea and I like the thought of it because it's a doing thing rather than a having thing.
2: New PC. I decided to dial out of the console wars with the current generation. The X-Bone annoyed with all Microsofts rubbish and flipping between ideas; the Grey Station is by Sony and I generally consider themselves to be up their own arse. In addition its release titles didn't inspire me and I haven't heard of anything they're delivering in house which would change my opinion. I do like the Wii U for its silly fun element and the fact it's not taking itself as seriously but, if I'm honest, there's about three titles I'd want. Legend of Zelda; Super Smash Bros; Zombies U. Seems a lot to pay for three games.
So, with that I have decided to return to PC gaming; leapt onto Steam and immediately discovered that my PC can't handle most of the high end titles. Hell I got slow down in areas of South Park: Stick of Truth. Now this isn't her fault, poor thing. She's a Laptop and she's now about 3 1/2 years old. This means that if I'm to get back into PC gaming it's "spend a grand" time to get an actual new machine. On one hand I want to do this. I do love new tech' and there's a great pleasure to owning a new machine and then running things in pretty pretty HD. On the other it's a lot of frakking money. I can't help but think that I should be pretending to be a grown up.
So yeah, bit stuck in the middle. Really what I need is to get paid more. Still haven't heard back on this promotion. It'd be awesome if I got it though, could finally break the 20k pay cheque and maybe look to getting my own place. Don't get me wrong, I love my brother dearly, but I really want to move my life forward at the moment.
That being said, what's more likely is that the car will need repairs, I won't get the promotion and life will continue on exactly as it is at the moment. I get so so tired of it doing that. I HATE being bored.
