Loads and loads of nothing.

“Biology gives you a brain. Life turns it into a mind.” ― Jeffrey Eugenides

I have been to the gym, I laughed so hard I almost ended up giving myself CPR with the weight. I saw my Ma and Pa and fitting too weeks worth of news in a hours worth of chat. I have had dinner which was 50% health, 50% carbs and 50% chocolate. I have clearly lost the ability to do maths. I have also lost need to express myself. It is one of those nights where I have nothing to say, so instead I am sitting here typing in the hope something will come.

Maybe it is just that so much has happened today. Maybe I have subjected myself to too much stuff. There was a terrible incident in London this morning, I am sure a lot of other people followed the news. I say news I mean the various media outlets recycling the same few facts endlessly, in slightly different way and threatening to create a black hole if they got any more circular. The problem is I still find something compulsive about it. I guess that says something about me that I need to try and shed light on.

It wasn't a news day where there was a major incident and nothing else to fill the void once those facts could no longer be rehashed and recycled. The other stories were trivial in comparison, but still strangely gripping. Not only that but I finally figured out how to stream i-player and listen to the news and radio whilst at my desk without disturbing anyone.

I think I have out stuffed myself. I think I have over filled my brain without allowing space for any processing. So sorry if you came along hoping to read something interesting or new. This is just an outpouring of the stuff I tried to cram in today my already tattered mind. I going to get it unpack, sorted through and repackaged tomorrow though, so we can only hope for more sense.
