lost or what?

Working in Brentwood again

Start of another working week, today I had to head back out to Brentwood. This meant catching the tube to Liverpool street then changing to the East Anglia line to Shenfield.
Now Shenfield is the station you go to as its express to there, and one stop from Brentwood, I have done this before last time I was here. I arrived at Liverpool street and went to the ticket office (due to idiocy, oyster cards dont work on all lines). As I bought my ticket they called out the train to Shenfield was leaving now, so I ran and just made it, pretty pleased with myself I was.
Then the train stopped, at the very next station. And the one after that. I was not on the fancy fast express train, I was on the slow train that stops at every station. I estimate this added 30 minutes on to my trip...fail.
The return journey was quite a bit more succesful, but I was home quite late, around 8pm.
During the course of the day I did come into possession of a beanie, I am anti hat but also realise you lose body heat through your head, so I will just have to suck it up and deal with hat hair, and I have a lot of hair. Also its an irefutable fact that wearing a hat causes you to go bald, and id take suicide over baldness.
Despite being late I remembered the massive mega mall stays open late, so I walked there and looked around at things in the heated mall and then had another salad for dinner.
