Them's the breaks

Good news: the bank has decided to approve my loan after all.
Bad news: have inadvertently upset fellow student re Kurt bloc interview.
Good news: informative taster session on TV writing.
Bad news: left my super-dooper thermos flask in class.
Good news: borrowed a new audio book from the library.
Bad news: Eddie broke his foot.
Good news: productive band rehearsal, worked on lots of new songs.
Bad news: had to come home to my solitary bed.

So, a bit of a yoyo day really. Total bummer about Eddie's foot. Was tackled by a girl playing football during their PE lesson, and ended up with a cracked bone. Couldn't even take him to casualty as had to be in St Ives, so his mate accompanied him. Sent home on crutches but has to return on Monday to see the specialist to find out if it needs plastering or not. Hopefully not! Meant to have worked tonight as well, which is gutting - £20 worth of lost wages, and tomorrow night's too. Poor bugger. And here I was saying how lucky he was not to have been mangled in the big surf the other day, but gets messed up in an innocuous game of soccer? Mad.

Started jotting down a couple of ideas for a TV production pitch. Probably not going anywhere, but good to think creatively in that way. About the only creative thinking I've been doing lately! Must get the Not Writing article written up before I lose the thread, and should consider writing another poem maybe, for the 'Family' theme. But all I really want to do now is sleep.
