Being off work is all very well and good, but its great at making you realise how alone you are. I went to Cheltenham, wandered around the shops a little then stuffed my face at Pizza Hut. I had said I would meet E for coffee, but she said it would have to be at 1pm and that kind of messed up my pizza plan so I asked her if we could postpone until tomorrow.
When I got home I sat outside with my ipod and book again. It was a bit cloudy but warm when the sun came out. I got bored at about 7.30 - no word from A again today. I know she isn't tied to me and she shouldn't have to speak at every minute but A. she normally does and B. with me not being at work, the days do drag a bit and unless people text me I'm just not going to swap any words with people. What a life?! Which is why at the top of this being off work makes me realise how alone I am - so I took myself off for a quick bike ride before it got dark. Only 10.5 miles but already it seemed easily done.Ii have clocked up 140 miles in the 13 days since S and P etc went away!
