Going Down

I hate this time of the week. Tuesday night or Thursday night, I have to stay up the whole night, whilst normal non-nocturnal people drift off to their beds, I have to stay awake to get back in the right sleeping frame of mind for the endeavours of the week ahead. It's a full one this week, starting tomorrow and finishing on the usual slow and boring Sunday night and also the fact I've had 9 days off.. I'm not a happy Mitten at the moment.

However, I'll be trying to elongate my holiday as much as possible by maybe having a cricket training session followed straight away by the start of pre-season training. That's right, football is back on the agenda after a strangely quick summer break. Mowsbury Athletic are back and we're a division higher, aiming for our 3rd straight promotion and maybe another cup win. I just won't celebrate it as vigorously as last season's one.. However, the one bad thing about the re-emergence of the football season is that Winter is approaching. I am never happy during Winter. The cold and miserable days coupled with the early darkness. No one likes it, but for me it takes me back to the dark days. I really am not looking forward to it. Football is the only light. Sport once again...

Back to tonight though, attempting to be less controversial than yesterday's post, I'm thinking I may have another 3-part movie marathon but for that, I need food. I've told myself I'm gonna hold back on the spending this month because I owe Mother Mitten some hefty pounds and I can't go buying crap and wasting it.

I can't think of anything positive at the moment.. Trying to not let my mind drag back to the dark days..

I just had a look outside. It's deathly black with a tinge of red. It will be like this at 4pm in a few months time..

But maybe it's time I did something about this ... Maybe I should just go for it...?
