the worst feeling in the world

You know what the worst thing is?  Not being able to sleep.  I hate that, I stay up all night and my sleep cycle gets fucked around.  So now its 01:35 and I really should be asleep, but I just don't want to.
Andrew & Anthea are getting married in June :-)  I'm not sure about scheduling yet, but it looks like I'll be over there for seven or eight days this year.  U2 are playing on the 24th, and the wedding is on the 19th, so I'll have to figure something out.  Its strange to think of Andrew married, but then I guess I haven't seen him that much in the last five years, and things have changed since he met Anthea.  Even more so since they had Cliona I guess.  Oh yeah, Anthea had a baby girl last week :-)  How strange is that... they're the first of my close friends to have a child.  Now, all we need is Max to... nyah, that'll never happen ;-)
I keep getting asked when we're going to have kids too, and I have to say that we just aren't ready for them yet.  Anna is still in university, and I don't want to have children in London anyway, so we'll wait for another four or five years yet.  Maybe.  Perhaps things will change tomorrow, and we'll decide to go for it.  Who knows what'll happen.  And that ethos is the core of it all for me - I don't have any fixed plans, no reason to "settle down and have kids", nor any serious desire for them either.  Its not that I don't want children, but just not yet.
