If we ignore the bit where I woke up at 01:15 this morning with epic stomach cramps and spent a good half hour emptying out through both ends, today has been a fucking amazing day!
My All Access ticket from the postponed Life Of Riley gig in September is transferable to the
Epic Gig Of Epic Awesomeness in December" (that would be the Chris/Steve/Riley gig that's happening just down there *points*, for anyone who's been under a rock for the last week heh) AND we still get our TLOR M&G which is fucking awesome.
So I purchased
ravensword's ticket for her, since 10am my time is 2am her time. And then I had fantastic fun watching my twitter timeline explode with fangirl GLEEEE ♥
Lots of plan-type stuff has fallen into place for
ravensword's trip over here in December and it suddenly feels all real and OMG she's coming over and December is going to be incredibly fucking epic and I cannot wait!
The interview I had on Monday for the Credit Control job? I got invited for a second interview on Monday. I'm completely and utterly shocked. Like I said, I have no experience in Credit Control and that, to me, was painfully obvious in the interview but hey, guess I did something right!
I also had a phone call from an agency this evening about a 3 month purchase ledger role in Cannock. It's still a 20 mile drive - in the other direction - but is £1 an hour more than I'm on now.
Client wanted me to start this coming Monday. I explained to agency that I can't start Mon 31st because a) I'm on a week's notice and b) I don't wanna leave Dawn on her lonesome in our busiest week of the month (the bawww why didn't you pay this invoice wah wah wah week) so Agency are going back to Client tomorrow morning and getting back to me.
Only downside is that this is the agency who royally fucked up my tax code for the best part of this year so.. that's less than satisfactory. I mean I'm still not paying tax 3 months later, that's how much they screwed me over.
THEN as if all that wasn't awesome enough... I was able to take off my size 16 work trousers without undoing them. They're not like falling off me or anything but I can get them off quite easily. At the beginning of this month, I couldn't even get into a size 16.
How freaking awesome?!
(and why do I think this icon is gonna get used a LOT over the coming months? Although I do wish I had icons from the pics from Chicago cos *thudwhimperflailpurrr* hehe)
