| | Life is bland, you know. Not having any work to do is magical n'all for the first few weeks, then you kinda get stuck in this holiday limbo. An endless cycle of sleeping all day, partying all night, and collapsing from exhaustion whenever the sun comes up. Sleeping, however, is not helped by the fact that my curtains are completely rubbish and may as well not even exist. I've recently found myself barricading my window with towels and pillows and bits of card, trying to seal off every bit of annoying light so I can finally sleep for 13 hours, and this all makes me feel twatishly vampiric.
Thing is, Id really like a job this summer. The most debilitating thing between me and this objective, is that I have my entire family and family friends nagging me about doing something about it. My father above all should understand that I'm permanently conditioned to do precisely not what I'm nagged to do after 20 years of having predominantly bad things the subject of all nagging. Thereby reinforcing my nocturnal habits so I don't have to deal with anyone. The bastards. I need a night shift.
Whenever I do resurface, probably around 4 or 5pm, with and unprecedented hairdo and an immediate kettle boiling. My pointless whatever's-in-the-fridge life is gently ridiculed by whichever patronising cretin is about the house during sociable hours. There'll be an ironic 'GOOD MORNING!' or a 'GOOD NIGHT LAST NIGHT THEN?'
It wasn't funny the first time someone said it, and it's not getting any titting funnier.
Most painful of all, is when I actually do wake before 11am and they smugly ask 'You wet the bed?'
To which I reply; 'Yeah, um, I had a bit of wee on myself, yes.'
So tonight I intend to break the cycle with a nasty 25 hours of wakeness resulting in a bedtime of 8pm and a hopefully reset body-clock. In this time I can play as many computer games and eat as much shit-from-the-fridge, and have as many kettle boilings that I like, because I'm being fucking productive.
