Should sleep more

I didn't mention in my blog about the weekend that the reason we had a really big party on Sunday with Jo et al is because Bron, after studying law in Copenhagen for 3 or so years, is returning to Oz. (Yes I should say Aus, but Oz seems more approriate somehow)
Anyway, She is leaving today, and so we all went out for one final drink last night. I first went to see Macbeth (check out my review) then rushed over the Thirsty, a pretty crappy night club in Soho. Because I got there late I got away with only having one drink. We all danced a bit, Bron got with 3 guys, and then we went for some great falaffal on Old Compton Street.
We thought we'd catch a bus home, and walked to the stop where we discovered that a 'good enough' bus was due in 3 minutes. 23 minutes later and 2 of said bus arrive, followed shortly by the bus we actually want, so I managed to get home at 2:15 or so.
Then I got up at 7 because Argo were threatening to deliver my new bed anytime after 7:30. I got ready, and just as I was about to leave for my 8:15 doctors appointment (yes I did pack in a lot in the last 24 hours) the Argos van turns up! They've only got half my stuff, the rest coming later, but I still had to help them get the bed itself in.
So then I ran down to the doctors (good run, felt great to stretch my legs, distance just enough to start hurting but not enough to cloud the endorphins) and got there for my 8:15 appointment. At 8:35 they finally saw me, tested my blood pressure(137/75), checked my height (186.5cm, 75.5 kgs - heavier than normal) and told me about the place - I was only going for a 'registration check up'.
So I headed back to my place and got there at 9. Figured I'd wait for the rest of the stuff, and build my bed at the same time. Just as I finished the bed the other stuff arrived (11am or so) , and I rushed off to work (which is where I am now, making up the time :(
Though I will head off for the 8pm session of Ray, which I am seeing with my flatmate Leo who is a big Ray Charles fan.
BTW, my bed is fantastic! It is a bunk with a single bed on top, and a double futon that bends up into sofa when not in use. For my teeny room it is perfect - I regularly read while sitting on my bed, now I can sit comfortably and not worry about hurtin gth e matress.
