Looking Up

Time, his script is you and me, boy.  I've left the rude bit out of David Bowies' classic Time from Aladdin Sane, but there are some great lyrics in there.  A lot of people don't like Bowie, but as an overall package he's in my top ten favourites - although it's probably because I listened to him in my formative years i.e. 15 - 20.   The thing about time, is that there just isn't enough of it some days.  There are not many things that money can't buy and I guess time is one of them.  In the first Superman film he managed to spin the earth backwards fast enough to relive the day again and save Margot Kidder form being swallowed by an earthquake, but not sure it actually gave him any extra time, just that he could take a different action to save his bit of totty.  Given that spinning the earth backwards is not an option for me, and outsourcing numerous services is too expensive, I need to be a bit smarter.  Possibly stop doing something, that would definitely help.  Work is the obvious thing to stop and I do have some sort of outline plan to do that in a couple of years, and the more I think about it, the more I would like to bring that forward.  However, that is probably not going to happen unless my finances improve.  So that just leaves 'stop looking at your phone'.  

Yes, that's the answer.
