Apparently the shower is connected to the pipes. But are the pipes connected to the water? There is a question. As of last information, the answer is no. Maybe one day. Maybe today. Maybe soon and for the rest of your life.

I feel tired and slightly emotional. What I need is a long day on a train with my laptop. That is the aim. My laptop, some amusing DVDs and the movement of the train. Hopefully there'll even be a power socket, so things don't peter out after 2 hours.

I really want to write a whole new comedy script, full of ideas, that will excite me to perform. I have had such mixed experiences with this in the past. When I write new stand-up material it has a high failure rate. When I wrote an entire play, it seemed to work quite well.

I think it's about the contrivance of the subject matter.

I don't know.

I'm trying to do too much. This is apparent from my "shopping list" of tasks for Easter Weekend. It feels like a plan that is guaranteed to be doomed to failure... but maybe that's just the pessimisim of exhaustion talking. We'll see. Or change things before it's too late.

Tonight is relief night. I shall spend some of it showering (about 10 minutes). I doubt I'll be showering at home. Perhaps I will. Perhaps there'll be a surprise waiting. I don't know.

I have to do some ironing and pack for my Edinburgh trip. I want an early night.

No DIY tonight, even though I'd really like to do some painting.

In the sense that I'd like to do some painting, but can't muster the enthusiasm or energy to do it.

My bottom hurts.

Muscular, not soreness.
