You tend to notice the big things in life... But the details aren't exactly your forte

How Observant Are You?

Now I am quite bored

.."You're beautiful, it's true"..

Friday nights are tough on the job. In the same manner as are Saturday nights. Lack of people online to chat with. Everyone out on the town. Or somewhere.
All I have is the music.

.."I'll take what I can before you leave, that is just a smile"..

And the book. I have the book. Why I haven't opened it is a mystery. Something is stopping me. Perhaps the mood. Time? It's 03:33 a.m.

.."Come on and show me that silky skin"..

It is only my second night this week and already I feel the night getting longer. It gets shorter on Sunday. More people online, in theory at least. We will see. I really should just try and get back into the book.
Reading books can make you tired. Worth the risk? Who'd care if I napped anyway? I guess I would.

.."I waited a long long time, I waited a long long time"..

The coffee available at the University Hospital of Iceland is not quality stuff. Even for an experienced consumer of coffee it is tough to swallow. But the cups here are cute. The one I currently sip from has got a picture of a baby mouse in a blue shirt airborne by a yellow balloon. The other side of the cup shows the baby mouse with his mummy mouse. Either he is yet to be airborne and his mummy mouse has just given him the balloon, or he has been saved and is being told never ever to do that again.

.."So lovely was the loneliness of a wild lake"..

There are these - weird green but almost transparent flies that wander in from the outside and I do not think I have ever seen this particular type of fly anywhere before. Only here - on my cozy shifts at the hospital hut do they decide to make their existence known. Ugly bastards - the green but almost transparent flies. Not a big fan of flies - me. Not a big fan of insects really - me. All due respect - to insects for they do serve purpose. Would never harm insects - me. Would never harm anything really - me. Is key - respect.

.."Earth come be light, mind you are free, love your surface"..

03:52 a.m.

.."We live among plastic lions"..

I could go on. Forever I am sure. Typing words and connecting them to each other. It certainly murders time, brutally. Twenty minutes have disappeared without trace, so far.

.."Light become earth, free your mind, surface your love"..

I will fantasize now about events and moments to look forward to. Leaves me feeling content even if they haven't happened yet. Hope is crucial and pretty easy to mould. Sometimes I fear my entries give a rather gloomy picture of their author. Gloomier than is necessary. I am not that gloomy, to be honest with my readers. Not gloomy at all. Positive, shiny and enthusiastic.

.."Coffee's pouring out my ears, it's the only thing they have in here"..

Quotes taken from the music that has been the undercurrent of the writing of this entry.

.."And my heart stops beating"..

Chained by work but humming gleefully,

I am really tired

Back at work after precious time off
The week off is now a memory of something that tastes of freedom
Even though I fully realize that I am just as free now as then
Just feels different

All my days are one long night
- 05:45 a.m. -
The time in between working hours
is only a pathetic attempt at life in daylight
Days are digested by the merciless work schedule
what is spurted out is only a resemblance of day
- a couple of hours, maybe three -

Oh five forty seven.

In just under three hours
I head off
to home
to bed
to empty bed
empty life

Sleep only to stay awake during work
is work then the cause for sleep or sleep the cause for work
- 05:50 a.m. -

I have been institutionalized
and I never even noticed.

Tickedy tock,
