1.Middle aged lady (actually a little older than me) so possibly 'old lady' bangs the snack chip/chocolate dispenser and complains it never works. Then hello, why use it?!!!! eg get ya snacks at the railway station New World pre embarking. Note, actaully the things I snack most on are blueberries and radishes, which I suspect, most people would never suspect....fundamental lesson though: if something is not working - modify your behaviour!!!
2. Young guy misses Upper Hutt stop. Presses emergency button. Note, if you are travelling on the 'rapa train and miss the Upper Hutt stop, it is not an emergency. So becasue I am actually a bit grumpy myself due to having to stand from Wellington due to a lack of seats, I say to "George" the angriest guard there is, "make him walk back to Upper Hutt". omg. After over 10 years travelling on the 'rapa train, I think that simple statement may have created a bond between me and George.
3. Kayak lady spots young(ish) atheletic looking guy and asks him if he would like to kayak. Random. She hands him a card. I sortof wanted to say to kayak lady, actually that's something I would like to try again. I suspect she would never suspect. Anyway, I work with a kayak lady, so I can follow-up seperately.
4. Youngish guy and gal exchange caramello and crunchie and living in London stories. I at first thought they were partners. But as the conversation carried on, no. Just chcocolate eaters and ex London dwellers.
5. The "old bat"from Featherston is back after a "time off" between contracts. Again, a bit like my thing with George, I kind of feel more empathy for the old bat now.
6. Sometimes, I wonder if I will ever have a "meaningful" (well actually just a converstion) with the RPM shearing lady from Masterton. I find it odd that we almost go to the same rpm classes, but the K lady or possibly C lady and I never talk?!! We probably go to the same classes beacuse of the train timetable thing.
Oh yeah, didn't get to the gym today. And I'll probably be posting infrequently over the next couple of weeks :-)
It maybe necessary on a personal/work front to execute a bit of combat stuff. I hope not, as I'm so passive by nature really. Still, if I have to fight I will. I feel strong enough to do that though. And thats where the mental training of the last 12 months or so kicks in, even if the pyhsical stuff is not completely on track :-)
