Even though things seem to be all right again with Alex I'm still feeling really low. I think it's just tiredness. I didn't really sleep very well at the weekend so I'm not as rested for this week as I should have been. This seems to have made me meaner and bitchier. I've been really bad to Alex over the last couple of days - letting little things get to me much more than they should and taking it out on him generally. If I'm not being bitchy then I ring him up to have unfocused rambly phone conversations with him which aren't really useful but do make me feel a bit better. What I'd really like is an evening of pampering where we'd just lay around and read or watch a movie and he'd bring me cups of tea followed by all-night hugs for preference, but if that's not possibly then with hugs interspersed throughout the evening. Hopefully we'll be able to get some hugs in on Friday when he comes over and laze around together but I expect someone will be having a gathering - they usually are on a Friday night. Trouble is, there's stuff going on on Saturday and I'm not sure if he's going to be around on Sunday so we won't really get any lazing about time apart from that. Maybe I should try to book myself into his diary for sometime next week. I don't know really.

I am supposed to be going bowling with the guys from work tonight but I'm really tempted to cry off. Unfortunately I've already paid and I never seem to make it to these things so I ought to make an effort really but I can't help feeling that I'm not exactly going to be the life and soul of the party.

Went to see Men at Arms last night - the play of the Pratchett novel. The casting and performances were really good - they had a great Sergeant Colon for example and they'd managed to cast good suitably shaped actors for all the parts - but I actually wasn't very impressed with the dramatization itself. It managed to feel rushed and at the same time take ages and I wasn't sure it would have made sense if I hadn't known the book pretty well. It really clunked in places. Also they struggled against the limitations of the venue to get the sound effects working and didn't always succeed - there were a couple of crucial missing gunshots for example and again, it's only because I know they should have been there that things made sense. Actually it was pretty good on the whole and we had a good time.

Emptied of expectation. Relax.
