I know I say this A LOT, but since returning to Hong Kong, time has felt like it's motoring by at an unenjoyable rate. I think it's the combination of being at work, being busy at work, and not really having many holidays to look forward to. As a result, my weeks feel like they go by so fast. The same monotony. Wake up at 6, go to the gym, sit in the sauna, head into the office before 8. Remember to take a breath, have some water, go for a walk, maybe buy some groceries. Actually, work isn't bad at all, the lack of mobile phones and Red Zones in the office definitely makes it feel like it's more intense than it really is. Leave the office by 6:30, try to make it home by 7:30. Friday comes along, the weekends pass in the blink of an eye and it's Sunday evening. A lot of my weekends results in being admin, life admin, so much life admin. Visiting the bank, trying to see medical specialist, laundry, doing things I can't be bothered doing during the week.
That being said, I have been reconnecting with a lot of friends. The interactions are different, they're less about being out at 10 pm having your fifth drink of the evening. It's more about casual lunches, home cooking, and just general chit-chat. We're getting older.
Also, had some visitors in town which was nice. Relatives visiting the Jordan, Kowloon side which was nice, as well as a certain somebody else passing through. I wonder if that's why the weeks feel like they move by so fast. I have a new rule, no more than events after 3 during the week.
Here's some screenshots of a recent 24-hour holter monitor. Some interesting stats from this all, looks like my heart rhythm has changed in the last 12 months. It also could still be changing.
