tales from an ordinary world

1999-11-24

Wandering around Chapel St with a friend, we ended up seeing Run Lola Run, which was still showing. I'm jealous, because Lola's bright red hair looked way better than my red-fading-to-pink...But never mind. The film itself was quite fun, too.

I'm still adjusting to leaving these contact lenses in all the time. It's sort-of good that they make my eyes tired if I sit in front of the computer at home for too long, although that means I have to find something else to do at home. Most of my book-reading I tend to do elsewhere - at cafés or on public transport - somehow I can never quite be bothered reading much at home, and besides, there's often some friend or other to talk to on the net. I need to wean myself. The TV doesn't interest me much - videos always seem like too much effort to just sit down and watch, without doing anything else for 2 hours...I'm too restless for that. At least if you're in a cinema there's nothing else to do but watch the screen, but at home there's too much distraction and temptation. My attention span is truly appalling these days...
