So here's my first post. Not first blog I've done, but have more freedom with this one... last one was about my training for the London marathon in April 2009. There probably will be a fair amount of content about running. There'll probably also be stuff about having 2 young children and being a parent, cos that's also a big part of my life. As are reading, listening to music, going to plays and gigs. And I'll probably comment on Marketing and Comms, working in an office, being on the board of a small Scottish charity, and just general thoughts on the world today (yawn). But will try to keep it varied and vaguely interesting....
So, this being the weekend, how am I spending it? Well got home work yesterday at just after 7pm, took some rubbish to local dump (sorry, recycling centre), nipped to the gym (2000m on rower, various swiss ball and weights exercises, 20 mins on stationary bike), showered then back home. Kids not quite asleep even though it was nearly 9pm. Cooked tea for me and the Mrs - sirloin steak, chips, garlic mushrooms and steamed broccoli. Plus glass of Merlot. Was lush. Caught up on day's tennis from Wimbledon wherever I could inbetween times... Fell asleep on sofa. Sad but true.
Today, Mrs Macd is at work (she was gone before I got up) and I have sole charge of the weans. So far today we have watched some TV, been out to the park and fed the ducks, and had our lunch. Exciting I know. Have also thoroughly reviewed the listings for the Edinburgh festival fringe and made a long wishlist of the things I'd like to go and see if I can fit them in around work, childcare, running, charity board meetings, etc etc....
Already have tickets to see Kris Drever because the Mrs wants to go to that too. Other things at top of my wishlist are: 'The Interminable Suicide of Gregory Church' (Daniel Kitson's play at the Traverse), Stefan Golaszewski is a widower (also at the Traverse), DJ Yoda, and comedians including John Bishop, Jon Richardson, Rhod Gilbert and Andrew Maxwell... what are the chances?
