During the last 7 days

Bad Things:
Temper tantrums
Finance quagmires (VAT)
Too many chocolate biscuits
Floods of unexplained tears
Lack of gym visits
Crap eyesight (that's getting much much worse)

Good Things:
Cooing at babies
Receiving a strawberry tart from my work mate - afternoon tea rocks
Pink butterfly filofax and notebook covers
Visits (short but sweet or should that be drunken?) from brother
New phone/MP3 player
New contact lenses
Dreaming of tattoos
A moment of pure enlightenment during my last counseling session (I 'got' how and why and wherefore now I just have to do something positive with it)

Inbetween:
Finding Russell Brand increasingly attractive - wrong!
