DING
This morning I was really motivated I did loads of work, had a smile... but since about 1130 I've lost all motivation and thought fuck it.

How's your motivation today?
Alternatively let's talk about sex lunch. I had a ham roll it was dull I am going out at lunchtime to find chocolate

I need to phone someone about arranging an interview
They were meant to phone me yesterday, but since they were just back from holiday, I wasn't surprised they didn't. Either that, or they've changed their minds and don't want me. Luckily, this requires very little motivation, and is the only thing on my to-do list for the day.

edit: ham sandwiches, as that's all I have in the house.

motivation should be high
suddenly I have a lot less time to do all the things I had to do. But I just got out of the bath and I'm sat on B3TA wearing a towel *sigh*

I think it may be time for some kind of elaborate lunch, suggestions?

I wasn't motivated at all this morning
As my simulation wasn't working yesterday, but it did as soon as I started this morning, so now I'm very happy.

I feel good too because we have reduced the number of places where we might celebrate the wedding. We've gone from around 20 to 6; 2 of them are hotels and the other 4 are cottages. I can put the links here if you're curious. I'd be glad if you offer some advice too.

I had cottage pie and an apple. I'm dying for some chocolate, but no, no, no chocolate for me, no.
