The wee beasties that haunted me during my final year at uni came back to visit today. Sure, they weren't the massive monsters from my time in Lancaster, but seeing the smaller ones out of the corner of my eye isn't a great feeling.
I don't think it's a coincidence that this happens during the first time I've not had anything to do since I've been off the happy pills. So in that case I get to Saturday without any major breakdowns and I'll be fine for going to Minehead. I have a shift on Saturday, the staff party on Tuesday and then I'm moving on Wednesday for which I'll have to pack etc on Sunday and Monday.
Still, I'm not exactly looking forward to the next few days. I've been feeling trapped and I've lost interest in the things that gave me something to do on my days off. I spent Monday and Tuesday playing guitar or playing on the PS2 but now I don't want to. There's nothing on TV worth watching and I've seen everything I own at least once.
On the plus side though, I can see I'm still me. Maybe this is just one bad night and tomorrow I'll feel better, and know what I want to do.
So, to an entertainment section. Here's the song that inspired the title, Crazy Train by Ozzy Osbourne: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otdHbA4GlSI (Coincidentally the opening riff is what I used to tune the A and low E strings of my guitar)
And here is an odd little thing (well it's a whole album, but you get the drift) that a friend put me onto today, Swing Metal by a band called Diablo Swing Orchestra. I'd be interested to know what you think of this if you give it a go http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHih6En5WE4 (and it is more swing than metal for you non-metalheads) Same with the Beardsmith song from my last entry.
