Would you Adam n’ Eve it? A week into 2006 already. At the risk of sounding like a stereotypical parent ” Where did the time go?” It seems like just yesterday that I was making a sellotape sculpture (read: trying to wrap Christmas presents). In fact, seems like just last week I was in Barcelona .. an that was two and a half years ago.

Must be something to do with age I guess. As much as it pains me to admit it, seems like my folks might have been right on yet another count. Time does go faster the older you get. Or maybe there’s a more sinister motive. Maybe the governments are shortening the days. Maybe the terr’ists have infiltrated the sun. Maybe the squirrels mind control device is finally operational. Whatever the reason, time is going too quickly.

I suppose the fact that it’s dark when you go to work and then dark again when you come home from work doesn’t help. The fact I’ve been working over the weekend doubtless won’t have helped either. But bloody hell! A week already. In fact .. if 2006 were a day long, we’d be over half an hour into it already! Now THAT makes 2006 seem a lot shorter. Hope I’ve got time to get a holiday or two in before I need to dig out the Christmas tree again…
