Falling Standards

Mac is away on business in Germany at the moment. This does not bode well for my general standard of living. In the absence of the routine dictated by his working hours, I start to fray at the edges.

Careless

Careless

Meal times are out; random snacking on leftovers and biscuits is in. Alarm clocks are out; disguising a barely awake morning voice when disturbed by the telephone is in. Personal hygiene is out; pyjamas till midday is in.

It’s just like being a student all over again, but with central heating. And toilet paper. And fewer stolen road traffic signs.
