Well that journey wasn’t fun, rammed with people from Heathrow then a child projectile vomited over themselves and a wide area absolute chaos, luckily I avoided it just but the family didn’t even get off they just got in everyone’s way with their suitcases and clearing it all up, bloody chaos

Also the tube is absolutely rammed, it’s never normally this busy this early especially on a Friday

It’s too early for a Friday, driving into London to the tube felt like driving in the middle of night, finally getting light

It’s my last super early wake up (and penultimate onsite day) tomorrow, in typical fashion I’m not tired at all

Sometimes I think my body is against me in my health journey, I can’t run on the treadmill due to my knees, and I think the leg press knackered them yesterday as walking is a bit painful, I wanted to walk from Waterloo to the office (a manageable 20 min stroll) but had to get the tube both ways

I thought by getting a train after 9 it wouldn’t be that busy, nope, it’s absolutely rammed, luckily I got a seat but as more and more people got on it’s gotten a lot more cozy, and typically it’s running late, I don’t think I’ve got a train in the last few years that wasn’t!

Was going to be cheap and use my usual drive and tube option to go into London tomorrow but as it’s into central rather than west London it would be an almost 2 hour journey each way so I might just pay for the train ticket

Like I know this year has sped past but having to survive 3 more weeks before payday is not going to be fun, I think present buying and self treats went a bit hard last week oops

So another reason I don’t like winter, I just put something in the freezer in the shed, and in the darkness tripped on something and whacked my back on the door frame, ouch

So I’ve been a Star Wars fan since I first saw it in 97 but since I watched all of it again recently it’s hit a new level, recently watched the entire clone wars series and for a cartoon it’s excellent, I must say season 7 especially the ending had a profound impact on me

Fixed it, managed to remote on using authentication from my old phone and then after passing the 22 locks of Fort Knox added my new phone, the other one I found the email with the initial qr code from 18 months ago and managed to add it and all works thank fuck
Omg why is it that changing your phone wreaks havoc with MFA using Authenticator, 2 of my work accounts won’t transfer to my new phone, and if it was simple I would just ask my IT director but it is for client systems so not an easy fix ffs
