More Swinging

I had a good day today, but for some reason I'm rather grumpy. I didn't really notice it until I was driving and the people trying to overtake me on the left from the bike lane really got to me. Maybe I'm more tired that I'm letting myself believe.

At the moment I'm content to blame it on having to start work again tomorrow. I'm shifting back into reality and I'm not liking it! I'm missing my city lifestyle more and more each day as I shift back into my usual lifestyle. The only difference being I'm now living a forty minute drive from where I need to be as opposed to a fifteen minute bike/tram ride. Not long to go now...

I ended up heading back into town today to catch up with Gene and Claire to go to Summer in the Park at the Fitzroy Gardens. It was good fun and the free lesson was the same as yesterday's so it was like a quick revision. The uneven ground was a bit different, but it was great to watch all the Swing Patrol's dancers when they performed! Gene's really keen on improving so that he can learn to do aerial work. There's a particular favourite of his where the follow goes over the lead's shoulder. So we're going to another class tomorrow - I'll be sprinting from work - and then there's a second class on Thursday at a different place.

It's a bit like the Speigeltent left our lives and I've replaced it with swing dancing... I guess the music's pretty similar. I'm just more sober at the swing dancing but having an equally good time!

My eyes are tired and I've got no idea where my glasses are. I can only assume they're in Brunswick. I'll have to get back there early tomorrow and have a good hunt.

On that note, I'm off again, hopefully to sleep. If not I'll keep reading "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night" by Mark Haddon. It's proving quite an interesting read! Lighter reading than "Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell" by Susanna Clark which I'm also quite enjoying at the moment. Highly recommend both books!
