The end of May always seems to get here so quickly. I guess we lose ourselves in the lighter evenings and spend more time looking out at the world, rather than just at the calendar.
We’re into that time of year now when everyone gets a little weird. Only having five hours of darkness affects everyone’s biorhythms, and we all go through it every year, but everyone else apart from me seems to forget from one year to the next and they start moaning about not sleeping well and having head aches. I got bored of explaining circadian rhythms when I was about 12, so I just let people get on with it now and I try not to let their ignorance annoy me.
Personally I love the extra energy we get in Summer. I get so much done. (Apart from on days when it’s raining, then I don’t get anything done and that extra energy gets converted into extra bad-moodiness and I end up ratty and snappy.) Still - Summer is better than Winter, right? I’d rather be overexerted than languishing in a life where daylight ends at 3:30.
I hope this blog is making sense - my legs still ache from cycling and I don’t think I’ve drunk enough alcohol today. But one of those things can be easily rectified so excuse me while I reach for a corkscrew….
