#oneaday Day 354: Where the hell did the evening go?

It's half past ten at night and I feel like I haven't really "done anything" this evening. Sure, I went and had a bath, and I enjoyed watching Shakespeare & Hathaway: Private Investigators while doing so (then I finished watching it after said bath) but other than that… I have no idea where my evening has gone.

I certainly haven't been sitting staring morosely into space, so that's something, at least. But I'm just a bit confused; I didn't finish work particularly late, and the only other thing I've done this evening is play the piano (long overdue, I need to do that more often) so, I say again, whuh?

Oh well. I guess that just means I better make the most of the remaining time I have this evening, without collapsing into bed at too ungodly an hour, because, after all, I still have to work tomorrow. I am probably going to spend a bit of time playing Castlevania: Lords of Shadow, which I fired up on a whim last night and found myself enjoying quite a bit. Or I might just watch another episode of Shakespeare & Hathaway.

Oh, I did also watch an episode of What We Do In The Shadows earlier, because the fifth season of that is now on BBC iPlayer, so that's another half hour or so accounted for. But I still feel like there's several hours' worth of time missing.

Well, these things happen, I guess, and sitting trying to work out how and why my evening has vanished into the ether isn't going to bring any of that time back. So I might as well stop poncing around here and go and do something enjoyable. Not that this isn't enjoyable in and of itself, of course — I love and respect you, dear reader — but, well, y'know, sometimes you feel like you need to have had some time that was just for you, no-one else. No commitments, no "making content", no monetising one's hobbies. Just enjoyment.

So that's what I'm off to go and do for an hour or two. Toodle-pip.
