as autumn begins to bite here in blighty my thoughts stray a long way from lanquid days roaming the dusty, mosaic strewn streets of rio. three months on and not only am i dealing with my own effects of the credit crunch-yes i’m still skint and jobless.

so it’s job application after job application and hope after hope. i try to keep focused with thoughts of training for a 5k run sometime in the future and dreams of running the rio marathon (yet another reason to return). contact with all but a few of the people i met at casa aurea has trickled to a stop. maybe they need a nudge like i do when i get stuck in my own self centred world. i’ve started a flickr page, posting all my brasil photos in one place so those of you who don’t want to wade through my self absorbed ramblings can just see the pictures without the distraction of prose. the address for which will follow soon.

so what concerns me besides getting back on the gravy train:

how manchester city f c and our newly aquired brasilian quartet will get on in the premiership?

how can i return to brasil without busting a gut working for ‘the man’?

how many murakami novels can i devour while i have the time?

how do i use this precious time while it’s all mine?

how long can i stay on the road (running, that is) without getting back w/ the wife (those that know, know what i mean)?

let’s hope i get a few more postings up before snow starts to fall, i’m sure these cold, dark european nights are a bit more suited to staying in and remaining focused with the job in hand. the more i think about, the more i think this’ll probably turn into my online diary. am i that indulgent?
