I am proper tired tonight. I have a new project at work, and it's right outside my comfort zone, so I have had a couple of really late nights (early mornings actually), and a fair bit of adrenaline coursing through my arteries. I had one of those mornings where you wake early thinking about work. When that happens, I can actually see pages from legal text books before I open my eyes.
I kind of like the fact that I can still get keyed up about what I do. On the other hand, I sometimes wish that I'd bitten the bullet an learned how to bake scones. I can almost see the little coffee shop in my home town centre. Can you see him? The alternative me? His only responsibility to make sure that my regular customers get free top ups to their coffee cups. I see him, closing up for the night, and then drinking a glass of red wine and reading the broad sheets at a little wooden table. I think Edith Piaf is playing on the CD player.
Ahh. It is a pipe dream. Even the alternative me is already dreaming about how to franchise the business and challenge Starbucks.
