Fractal Reality

I haven’t blogged in a long, long time but no time like the present – especially if it’s a rant.  I recently moved back to Cardiff and my company allows for consultants to stay at hotels if they live far enough away.  I was told the move was fine and so I did just that.  Now they refuse to pay for my hotel room and I’ve enter laborious negotiations to be allowed some sort of accommodation.  Meanwhile I drive from Cardiff to Reading every day and that trip clocks in at a massive soul destroying 968 miles a week (luckily I can work from home on the Friday!).

The usual journey starts at me waking up at 5.30am and getting on the road by 6am.  I usually manage to do good timing and arrive at 7.50am-ish.  Today I was caught by a massive crash between a minibus and a truck carrying cows… of course – that usual crash sight.  Today’s morning trip came in at 4hours and 30minutes and due to getting into work ‘late’ at 10:30am I’ll be leaving late.  I’m dreading the trip back today as I fear the total commute will come in around 7hours.  I’m currently running off painkillers and coffee with a possible addition of proplus.

I hate travelling.  At least it’s nice to live in Cardiff again.
