Wired

I'm feeling a bit wired at the moment. This morning started with a funeral of the brother of a friend of mine who died in the last few days. As a rule I hate funerals, and this one was no different. It was also one of the funerals that seemed to drag on for ever, and due to work I left before the end.

I hadn't had much to do with him in recent years, but I did go to a youth camp with him many years ago and ended up rooming with him. I remember he could tell tall stories and make them so believable you'd think they were true. So it was no surprise he got into sales and ended up very successful owning and operating one of the biggest car sales yards in Wellington. He had it all; a successful business, a beautiful partner, great kids. And just as he was reaping the rewards of all his hard work he was gone at just 40 years of age.

Then I was off to work which was uneventful until just near the end. Then things got interesting which often happens in my line of work. Things can be so quiet, then chaos. So I ended up having to sort out an incident just when I hoped to easing down to the end of shift. And when you have a shift like that it always takes a while to unwind and still the mind, hence why I am still up past the midnight hour.

But tomorrow (or should i say today) is another day :)
