Does anyone feel like they are loosing track of time?
For the last few months I've had a real hard time keeping track of everything I do, when it gets to Sunday night I feel like I've acomplished nothing. My week feels like:
Wake up
Work
Get home
Sleep
Wake up
Work
Get Home
Sleep
Work
Sleep
Work
Sleep
See bird on weekend
Sex
Sleep
Idle
Sleep
Work.
Its fucked  and quite depressing, I sometimes feel like it has something to do with my commute, the other day I worked out that I'm out of the house at least 10 hours of the day every weekday, thats 2 hours commuting (hour each way) and 8 hours at work (at least).
But I'm stuck...kinda.. I don't want to move nearer to the City as I like it where I am at home, and I don't want to work anywhere else because the City is where I'm going to earn more and be where it is (at least in theory).
Just felt like moaning.

Hp - start at 7, work till 3. Or start at 10 and end at 6.
I still feel the commute is worth it, you should see where I live

I go from Essex to the City every day, I think thats roughly 40 miles or so, every morning its:
Drive to station (5-10 mins)
Train to Liverpool Street St (30-40)
Walk to Cannon Street (10-15 mins)
And thats my lot.

Takes me 15/20 minutes to get to work and 15/20 minutes to get home, but usually 20/25 minutes to get home on a Friday due to traffic on the M4
But willybum i know how you feel i get up, have a shower, go to work, come home, have a shower, have tea then go to bed ... every monday - friday .........

I am quite lucky where i live as there would be no other IT based jobs for about 20miles away , which is then an hour comute to bristol as the traffic is bad.
