And so as the jetlag slowly fades and the World Cup finally warms up I find myself in a kind of nice limbo... feeling more alive yet still quite floaty... day structured around being able to see the games without having to miss a deadline and holding distractions at a minimum. It's a rather lovely way to be, now all I need are for the pieces of work that I do between 6am and 10am and then between 3pm and 6pm to be attached to ever larger cheques and all will be well with the world.
