hawkwing_lbAs of this day, I am three years shy of thirty.
I never thought, when I was younger, that I would know so many interesting people.
I never thought I'd be able to call so many interesting, wonderful people friend.
You guys. You guys. You've made my life better in so many ways. I don't have the words to say how much I appreciate you all, beyond thank you.
From the depths of my heart.
My day started with swimming in the sea. At Skerries, where the deep water is: the sky hazed where the sun had yet to burn off the damp, the sea grey and gently choppy and cold beyond the dreams of men. It steals the breath.
Twenty minutes in the water. Emerging to dress and eat lunch and catch a train. The sun burning off the haze, temperatures reaching 24C. The gym deserted, plenty of room to push intense alternating intervals on bike and treadmill.
A good day. I even managed to hand in my paperwork to the travel fund and see my supervisor!
Now, dear friends, it is time for cake. And thesis. But mostly cake.
